Nintendo flew a representative out this afternoon and went to the local game shop where I picked up X. The Nintendo rep had said heads were rolling at Nintendo because of the leaks. I gave up my copy of the game to try and help keep the local game shop out of trouble and to keep my friend from losing his job.

Mod deleted the thread for some reason

What people? This is really just down to a retailer error or breaches within retailers or something.

no consumer is in danger of getting sued
pretty sure most of the leaked copies were a result of under-the-table dealings with friends and people are trying to keep their buddy from getting fired and that's why they're complying.

If someone randomly went in and picked up a copy from a store that was breaking street date do you think they would give a single fuck?

Got that too. I read the new terms in conditions. It says "games that are given out before the designated street date must be returned to nintendo upon request. The store will be contacted and will proceed to pound your anus."
I obviously accepted it and was able to log in again.

3DS was to move to Nintendo Network sometime this year/next. They changed a policy on something, and with the leaks, it's just, timing.
