Follow the source of this article (in this case Polygon, yuck) and you will find the original info:

It’s seeking $150,000 for each alleged violation of Nintendo’s rights outlined in the Copyright Act and $2,500 for each alleged violation of the Copyright Act’s anti-circumvention and anti-trafficking provisions. Alternatively, Nintendo also could elect to take “actual damages,” i.e. money it’s lost, and Keighin’s profits, “in amounts to be proven at trial.”

The key here is $152.500 per infringement. So if he streamed at least 50 times in the past two years, that’s $76 million at least.

And that falls straight back into “normalcy” (for Nintendo).

Yeah he’s got balls. Also an idiot, but still.

According to the document, Keighin sent a letter to Nintendo in late October “bragging that he has ‘a thousand recorded channels’ to stream” and that he will continue to use them.

Don’t think he was intimidated

You right, my thoughts trailed and I added that last bit even though it didn’t have to do with it, idk why.

Weird. In the West, we’ve been welcoming small(er) but interesting, unique or otherwise impactful games regardless of its size. Complaining about Warzone taking up 250GB on your hard drive and stuff. And that was 2020.
