UK man accused of selling counterfeit Nintendo games, and he made nearly a million dollars doing it
Nintendo really really doesn’t like pirates. They don’t like them so much that the only pirates in their games either don’t dress like pirates at all, or are robots. No real pirates allowed. Did you know they even have an anti-piracy website?
UK resident Justin Brooks learned this the hard way when Nintendo found out he had been selling “thousands” of counterfeit Wii and DS games to people in the region, reportedly making around $962,000 over two years. Now his escapades are coming to an end and he faces two counts of “fraudulent trading”, two counts of “supplying an article to use in fraud”, two counts of “unauthorized possession of goods bearing a trademark”, and one count of “unauthorized use of a trademark.”
