Nintendo takes console hack site to court
GameInformer reports Nintendo itself announced the suit, which was filed in Florida.
The site allegedly modifies Wii hardware to enable use with pirated software; sells DS devices like the famous R4 for the creation and use of unauthorised software; and vends unauthorised copes of games.
It’s also said to be introducing a device enabling pirated software on the 3DS.
Nintendo is one of the more active platform holders when it comes to lawsuits and has been particularly firm on the topic of piracy. It regularly advocates for stricter legislation against piracy. The DS is one of the most frequently exploited devices in the world in terms of copied software.

nintendo is the easiest to mod and get free games and stuff on. Maybe if nintendo was smart they would make it a lot harder to do this in the first place

varG9H At least they take action against it, JTAGS, Jailbroken PS3s there not doing anything so I guess its good?...
Because MS and Sony don't rage like Nintendo
Ya there are more gamers who dont know about hacks and dont care and there are the famous gamers that act like they hate hackers but like modded lobbies then do. The wii is just a fail and even with hacks it still sucks and they have nothing to do but try to take down this site which will prob not get taken down or they will make a new one.
