This dude was selling Pokemans with modified move sets for up to $80 a pop and could now face up to 5 years in prison.

Is this not insane? Or do you think he could face a much less severe sentence and the 5 years prison and $30k just the upper limit for this particular set of crime?

    This punishment is way out of line. Seriously the article doesn’t have anything legitimate to compare it to, so it references people who committed burglary as the most similar examples it can come up with - this guy used a hex editor on his own computer and charged for the service. Fuck this law, fuck Japan’s one party capitalist state, and fuck Nintendo for good measure.
