Imagine live streaming pirated Nintendo games and taunting the gaming giant that you could continue doing so without consequences. Well, that’s exactly what streamer Jesse Keighin, known as Every Game Guru, did, leading to a lawsuit from Nintendo. Keighin had boldly streamed early release copies of popular games like The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom and Mario and Luigi: Brothership, even going as far as instructing viewers on how to download pirated copies.

Despite receiving multiple cease-and-desist letters from Nintendo, Keighin defiantly sent a letter back, challenging Nintendo by stating he could keep up his illicit activities by creating burner accounts to evade detection. However, this bravado has now led to potential damages of up to $7.5 million for Keighin. It seems the consequences of his actions may be more severe than he initially anticipated.
