Isn't he basically screwed for the rest of his life though? Having to pay some of his wage to Nintendo
Most of his wage. 14.5 million docked from his paychecks for the rest of his life. There’s not much more info in how much will be docked from his pay, as in a percentage or flat cost
Edit: I read more into it. It’s 25-30% of his paycheck goes to Nintendo.

He will die owing Nintendo tens of millions of dollars. Fuck Nintendo
Regardless of your opinion of the guy, feel like financially fucking him into the ground for life shouldn't be a thing... Sure punishment is in order, but what he got is a financial life sentence - it doesn't feel right.
We bringing serfdom back, baby!
Debtors prison is the logical next step.
No. It doesn’t. I don’t think he should have been charged regardless, but that’s just me lol
