Has Nintendo ever had the entire rom of a major game leak before it was released?
Happened with Tears of the Kingdom too iirc.
And Echoes of Wisdom too.
Skyward Sword too, going back to the Wii era. That was probably just someone at a games store dumping the disc when it was shipped to them before they could legally sell it though.
And Metroid dread. I finished that one the weekend before it came out. Then bought the collectors tin.
One of the gen 9 pokemon games. I think violet?
I was out with my wife's family coordinating with my brother by text trying to get it downloaded.
In case this was asked in earnest, yes- it happens all the time. Nintendo releases have been notoriously leaky for about 3 years now
Not quite the same but there was a working GBA emulator before the console released.
