In a significant legal victory, Nintendo has secured a $2 million settlement from Ryan Daly, a Michigan-based seller of modded Switch consoles. This case underscores the serious implications of selling modded gaming hardware, especially when it involves circumventing copyright protections. Daly, who operated under the name Modded Hardware, initially denied wrongdoing but ultimately agreed to the settlement, which includes a permanent injunction preventing him from engaging in any future sales of modded devices.
