- Thread starter Atheerios
- Start date
Rookie ass move having all the leaks done off of one Twitter account too, and make it very clear where you can get to them

Thank God.
We're incredibly close to the real deal anyway, and Sabi's attitude has been insufferably self-aggrandizing throughout the past couple of days.
Now I can continue uninterrupted as I partake in my annual tradition of overhyping myself and ending up bitterly disappointed.

If they got the info by hacking or violating contracts then it is a pretty big deal
It's a ploy. Everything this account was posting was just regurgitated leaks from other sources. This Sabi account itself tried to play off all leaks as their own and when that info dried up for today , they're protecting themselves from getting any "leaks" wrong regarding Nintendo pretending they aren't allowed to post anymore. They could leak on burner accounts all they want. Anonymous on chan. Whatever they want if they really knew info and wanted to dump it. However now they gained a bunch of internet cred and followers which was their goal. Don't fail for it.
A lot times the goal is to just make the person think legal action can be taken against them. They're banking on Sabi not getting a legal expert to get into legal nitty gritty, especially in just 1.5 days.
Read through their Twitter feed (unless they deleted everything; haven't checked).
Everything they said about the Bethesda conference was correct, and they got details from Microsoft correct too (like Reeves in Cyberpunk and info about Project Scarlett).
Not necessarily. I received a C&D from Activision (via physical mail) for a post on GAF and I do not work in the videogame or any related industry -- certainly not party to any NDA
Post was just animated form of some previously released concept art but taken from the vidoc that was uploaded early
She hasn't leaked any Nintendo stuff but a lot of stuff at the various conferences that have occurred so far (Tales of Arise, Elden Rings, Ghostwire Tokyo, Deathloop, and various SquareEnix games which are yet to be confirmed).
She's also said that she'll leak the entire Nintendo Direct once she's got the details so I think Nintendo's taking action for that.
Yeah, they're not exactly being a-holes here when they ask you not to leak their presentation. They put lots of money and manpower into their presentations and they don't want leakers fucking up their marketing plans.
Yeah that goes without saying or they are an ex-employee or contractor.
companies, especially ones like Nintendo, aren't in the business of calling up their lawyers on retainer and spending this kind of money on a Sunday to blast a random twitter person.
It's either fabricated bs, or they accessed something that could potentially be considered illegal, or they are breaking some kind of contract. Its not like this twitter person was big enough at all. Its also not Nintendo's mo to go after this nonsense like this.
Like this wouldn't be worth the cost of the lawyer to deal with.
Regardless of the validity of their leaks or not, this is just dumb, and to blindly believe it is silly. It seems more so like plausible deniability to not have actual information, can't leak shit you aint got.

let someone sit outside your back door at night with a pair of binoculars then

How did they get your address from a post in 4chan? Lol
Also, as others have said, as long as you are not under NDA, it's legit reporting thus unenforceable.
Can't this person now just pass their info onto someone else? Make a 2nd Twitter account and leak there?
Companies use C&Ds as a bluff all the time. They are meant to scare people without actually having to file anything in a court.
Petty? Seriously? A person leaks everything and they're petty?
Going to need to see some receipts on this. A few default profile pic twitter accounts were saying this too but they said they had proof they were on it before other people.
there was hacking involved, some people here are too naive or just arent paying attention to her twitter account
Double check the origin of these leaks, because they aren't from that account. For example, all the Bandai Namco games leaked off their own website from someone goofing up an upload.
If you take what's posted there for face value, I would generally assume the leaker got their info through dubious means.
If you think there is baloney there, then they likely just ran out of info.

Right, sure, but not on a Sunday and not for BS. Like I said, unless they accessed something they shouldn't using ill gotten means, or broke a contract, the cost of the lawyer on weekend hours is too much.
That being said, I could be convinced if the leak they had could materially damage or affect Nintendo's shares. I could be talked in to that. I could see a company thinking hey that could have an impact on shareholders either way and then the costs are mitigated.
And Nintendo is an easy scapegoat to use, them, EA and Activision always seem like the big bads, so you can use any of them as an excuse and people just assume it is true. We should always be more skeptical of these things.
Didn't this person leak a ton of pokemon info ahead of time? Maybe it's more related to that/in response to
I'm not buying it. She might just be using this C&D as an escape goat because she can't deliver on the Nintendo leaks as she promised.
