I guess it's only a matter of time before they go after Microsoft.
This topic is locked from further discussion.
Nintendo didn't do anything. Just stick with Sony.

Hackers don't have morals. They just went after Sony because Sony went after the guy that enabled piracy.
This. First it was a huge scare for PSN users...now they're just pissing people off.These hackers should be shot on sight.

Sony just gave them a push to start hacking them, in reality they will go after anyone who they feel are vulnerableNintendo didn't do anything. Just stick with Sony.

Going after nintendo isn't smart. There is no reason for that.
Guess that goes to show, there are multiple types of hackers.
What the hell kind of moral is that? You really want Sony to keep suffering from the hacker attacks? You should know that they aren't doing it because they hate Sony, they are doing it because they can.Nintendo didn't do anything. Just stick with Sony.

Who cares what their motives are. They're pretty much cyber terrorists now, making enemies out of pretty much everyone. The people that once supported them must feel like fools now.
For all you know they could be on a pay roll for this.... Of course they could be. I was considering that with the attacks on sony. There's just no way for us to know so i'll just remain open minded without conclusion.[QUOTE="KungfuKitten"]

**** hackers. release the hounds on them I say! :x
EDIT: ^ I also find it funny that some people think they have morals and reasons to hack a company :lol: no. they're just pricks and they do what they want.
Way to go Sony. Look what you brought onto the industry with your hubris. Now more gamers will be effected because of you..
"We're not targeting Nintendo. We like the N64 too much - we sincerely hope Nintendo plugs the gap. This is just for lulz.lulzsec
They are doing it just for the lulz..... Anyways what will they achieve with this, leave Nintendo online infrastructure worse than already is?
[QUOTE="Mystery_Writer"]I guess Nintendo & SONY should learn a thing or two from Microsoft in terms of security. *flame shield on*WeenskiMicrosoft software gets hacked all the time. XBL has been hacked. Xboxes are hacked a lot. Yet it doesnt affect the majority of us 360 gamers. Shows how well Microsoft deal with it, unlike Sony who feed their customers lies and take weeks just to get PSN back up and running.

Ha, they will never get Microsoft. Microsoft is the best, we pay for the great quality of Xbox Live. Microsoft is better than stupid Sony and lame old Nintendo!!!Xboxgamer1337Are you KevinBulterNPK?
How is this Sony's fault? Can you give me reasons , good reasons.Way to go Sony. Look what you brought onto the industry with your hubris. Now more gamers will be effected because of you..

Who says this is the same person. Also a mild breech is nothing, it's pretty much to be expected that if you're a big name that you will get hacked several times a year, they just don't announce it as the PR damage is far more harmful than any data loss.Nintendo didn't do anything. Just stick with Sony.

Yes, because hackers are one big cohesive group....Who cares what their motives are. They're pretty much cyber terrorists now, making enemies out of pretty much everyone. The people that once supported them must feel like fools now.

How is this Sony's fault? Can you give me reasons , good reasons.VensInferno1- not investing in security 2- hiring lazy devs that can't even sanitize their websites from sql injection. 3- allowing anyone to reset your password by just knowing your email and birthdate. shall I go on? or those would do?

Does weren't really valid points into why Hackers are mad at them.
these hackers are pathetic losers that deserve serious jail time. Surprising that the US government isn't able to catch these morons, someone should just put up a reward and amnesty for whoever turns these guys in. There is no honor among scumbags, one of them would turn them all in.rabakillThis may have something to do with it: http://www.dailytech.com/US+Govt+Study+Over+a+Third+of+FBI+CyberCrime+Agents+are+Incompetent/article21490.htm
The average hobbyist hacker is a far more capable hacker than an FBI agent

Hate hackers now. The only way to make these people stop is to make it known we don't want their "help". They need to think their hurting their cause by loosing support.
That being said, pretty much every war the US has been in over the past half century has had little support in the countries they were "protecting" and at home (Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan). So my question is, when everyone eventually hates these hackers as much as the rest of the world hates the US, will they stop?
[QUOTE="DavidianMH"]Wow, some people really have nothing better to do with their time...Xboxgamer1337Like you who just posts crap to get more posts? Just leave.
Lol, because you literally just did exactly the same thing!
