Nintendo Wins Piracy Case, Streamer EveryGameGuru Fined $17,500 For Leaked Games

Nintendo has won a piracy lawsuit against streamer Jesse Keighin, known online as EveryGameGuru, who repeatedly leaked unreleased Nintendo Switch games via Twitch and Discord. The U.S. District Court in Colorado awarded Nintendo $17,500 in damages after Keighin failed to respond to the lawsuit. He had streamed titles like Echoes of Wisdom and Brothership using emulators, while publicly taunting Nintendo with claims of “a thousand burner channels.” The court issued a permanent injunction but denied Nintendo’s broader requests. This ruling reinforces Nintendo’s aggressive anti-piracy stance and serves as a warning to streamers who distribute or monetize pirated content.
