Sony Pr should be taking notes

djreplay5484d ago

Yeah, they should take a leaf out of Nintendo's book and tell us nothing was stolen. /s

vhero5484d ago

Meh not much to steal on there basic net I doubt theres many users with credit cards on accounts as there online service sucks so bad.

Sonyslave3 I thought that your face was suppose to turn Purple and not green when your choking on something.

"Nintendo’s U.S. unit was accessed unlawfully a few weeks ago"

There isn't much of a difference, they both didn't make a statement straight away even though this was was less serious.

This is getting out of hand though.

It is getting way outta control, a government or someone needs to make examples outta a few of these bastards.

Start finding these azzholes and handing out 3-5 year jail sentences for cyber terrorism and i guarantee it will come to an end quickly.

nickjkl5484d ago

sony did say they were breached when they found out

unless your saying sony waited 3 weeks and just told us about it

xAlmostPro5483d ago

First sony, now nintendo.. wonder who's next...

We all know it's gonna happen at some point, more so with the 360 fanboys tweeting at hackers and such claiming xbl is untouchable and telling people to get 360's lol..

P.s im glad it wasn't as serious as the psn breach, we don't need anything like that to happen again no matter what console it happens too

M-A-R-S-H-A-L-L5484d ago

Yes, because NIntendo would actually *panic* people and say that information was stolen.

Wow, you're smart. /s

Lord_Sloth5484d ago

On how to run a useless online function that has no real information to steal to begin with or how to best give your fans the middle finger by going casual?

sazzrah5484d ago

I guess you missed the part where the article says the attack happened 'a few weeks ago'.

oh hackers......how you can all burn in hell

Rainstorm815484d ago

i agree, this hacking BS is getting ridiculous.....

Hey hackers, try getting lives. It'll help you guys to not be so butthurt over corporate decisions.

I swear 2011 is turning into the year of the hacker.

RememberThe3575484d ago

I don't know if I'd wish hell on someone for hacking, but they are some serious assholes for all this crap their pulling.

GusBricker5484d ago

...they were tired of inputing friend codes.

tweet755484d ago (Edited 5484d ago )

hackers are probably waiting for monday night or tuesday morning early right before nintendos E3 press conference to steal data. If they really want to frustrate nintendo that would do it.

U.S. patent examiner rejects Nintendo’s summoning characters patent as obvious: non-final ruling

The rejection is non-final (and even when such rejections are labeled as “final”, the process is far from over, given that there can be, at minimum, an appeal to the Federal Circuit).

Good, as they should! A game mechanic like that shouldn't be locked behind a patent, and Nintendo didn't invent it either.

PRIMORDUS68d ago (Edited 68d ago )

Nintendo wants to keep wasting money on bullshit lawsuits, real smart in this economy. They should put that money aside for other game projects. On the other hand, I don't care if they waste it all either, and they are screwed in the future maybe that will teach them a lesson.

When logic meets EA it generates anti-matter ..... so try not to apply it in any meaningful way. Entropy is what matters in there !!
