US court orders Redditor to pay Nintendo £3.4m over Switch piracy "Egregious infringement activities merit substantial punishment here." A US District Judge has granted Nintendo a £3.4 million ($4.5m) default judgment against James Williams, the former Reddit moderator known online as "Archbox", after he failed to respond to a lawsuit over alleged Nintendo Switch piracy. By this time last year, court papers revealed Nintendo was seeking $4.5m in damages from Williams, accusing him of having "facilitated a network of unauthorised 'shops'...that have offered to the public extensive libraries of pirated Nintendo Switch games for download". And now, according to TorrentFreak, $4.5 million (£3.4m) is exactly what Williams now owes Nintendo. Nintendo asked for $150,000 for every one of the 30 games Williams allegedly pirated, including The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Super Smash Bros.
