Earlier this year, Ryan Hernandez pleaded guilty to federal crimes related to a Nintendo computer hacking scheme. Hernandez had leaked pre-release information about Switch, and despite a warning that followed, later hacked into multiple Nintendo servers and stole confidential information about games, consoles, and developer tools.

Today, Hernandez was sentenced to three years in prison “for federal crimes related to his computer hacking scheme and his possession of child pornography found on his digital devices”. He also agreed to pay $259,323 to Nintendo in damages. Once the sentence is up, Hernandez will carry out seven years of supervised release and will be required to register as a sex offender.
