Nintendo wins injunction against hacking group involved with modded Switch hardware and pirated games

Back in early 2018, a hacking group known as Team-Xecuter announced a Switch mod that allows for pirated games to be loaded onto the hardware. That wasn’t all though, as the group also sold SD cards containing pirated games to be loaded onto consoles via the mod.
Nintendo has now won an injunction, prohibiting Team-Xecuter’s Sergio Moreno from modifying, selling, renting, or distributing unauthorized copies of Nintendo technology, software, or trademarked material. Moreno has also been orders to destroy the existing modded devices and pirated software.
Team-Xecuter also apparently sold a modded NES Classic Edition with over 800 games, but that was not involved with this new injunction.

Metro Redux appears to be in the works for Switch as new rating appears in Europe
Posted on 4 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
One of the earliest announcements made for Wii U was Metro: Last Light. That release ended up being cancelled in the end, but the first-person shooter IP may now finally be making an appearance on Nintendo’s console with Metro Redux for Switch.
Metro Redux was first rumored for the Big N’s platform after a listing popped up on a Portuguese retailer website. Then more significantly, the European ratings board PEGI just added in a rating yesterday. Those two pages combined all but suggest that an announcement is imminent.
Metro Redux bundles together Metro 2033 and Metro: Last Light. There were technical and gameplay improvements, including enhanced animations. It’s unclear what exactly we can expect from the Switch version, though we’ve included some additional information and a trailer below.
