[ShockingAlberto]

If I recall correctly, an MGS3 demo that for some reason worked on retail PS2s was pried out from a demo unit and stolen one year.

I believe Konami actually managed to track the guy down, but I don't know what happened to him. I think that was the first year I was there.

 

[GamerJM]

I wonder who this is.

 

[Majukun]

nintendo should have just released the demo on the store..it would have been a little reward to those guys who stuck with them till the end

 

[grandjedi6]

Yes, I too believe Nintendo fanboy #34532 who types everything in all caps.

 

[JamesAR15]

Quick swallow the SD card!

 

[Az987]

Lol. Haven't people been arrested for something similar in the past?

 

[Vanille]

as cool as this is, it's also really shitty

Eh, if NoA is incompetent enough to let this happen, then they deserve it.

 

[exmachina64]

Hack everything(tm)

Ubisoft needs to throw together a quick video now!

 

[beanman25]

IF it's like last year, many of the Wii U units I played demos on while usually attended to were just in the open. Some behind a curtain, but not locked or anything.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Stability update incoming?

 

[komplanen]

Fuck sake, could you not?

Send the person a DM on Twitter, maybe they'll stop if you ask nicely.

 

[StalkerUKCG]

SuperMTW that you?

 

[BlackBuzzard]

This is viral marketing for Watch Dogs 2.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Eh, if NoA are incompetent enough to let this happen, then they deserve it.

If you leave your wallet on the table, I deserve everything in it.

 

[Despera]

What if its as big as that Deus Ex Human Revolution leak and you actually get ~15-20 hrs of playable content :O

Seriously tho, this is just someone taking the piss.

 

[Walter White]

You would think after that Twitter post someone from Nintendo would be on the ball getting to that person since it sounds like they're still in the process.

 

[ViciousDS]

Nintendo really just leaves everything accessable don't they



They should just release the fucking demo on the eshop

 

[NeonBlack]

He's currently in the process of getting the demo. Let's tweet about it.

 

[Kindekuma]

lol freaking ridiculous man

 

[entremet]

Even if this is a true, it's such a gamer thing to do lol.

 

[mrmickfran]

Why would he tatl like that

Because he's looking for Tael.

Edit: DAMN YOU WII TANK

 

[PAULINK]

Unless the nintendo rep manning the station is dead.... that's not happening.

 

[protomouse]

Aren't the Wii Us at E3 locked behind a plastic case?

Maybe the guy brought a dremel lol

 

[Persona7]

Is it illegal to copy a public or press demo? i doubt it?

 

[QuantumBro]

I wish that person the best of luck. Would love to play some early Zelda.

 

[tolkir]

 

[Alo81]

This is fuckin cool and I hope its real

 

[InfiniteBento]

people are ruthless as fuck

 

[Qurupeke]

What the

 

[Sylverstone14]

Send the person a DM on Twitter, maybe they'll stop if you ask nicely.

Way to victim-blame.

 

[grandjedi6]

Also the E3 floor doesn't open for twenty more minutes so unless you think a Nintendo employee or teamster is doing this... lol

 

[MrSaturn99]

uhhhhhhh

please no?

Skyword Sword.

Wait, really?

 

[OmegaSmash]

The Skyward Sword E3 demo was also leaked, but someone actively trying to get it from E3 itself, hell from Nintendo themselves, is god damn nuts.

 

[AAMARMO]

So homebrew people will play tonight.

 

[wrowa]

This is fuckin cool and I hope its real

Piracy is fucking cool?

 

[Majine]

I want some of that windows kush.

 

[The Abominable Snowman]

Oh, a free demo is being leaked. Its a good thing. I don't see why people in this thread are upset.

 

[Sectorseven]

Couldn't it be some kind of Wii U exploit via a wireless connection?

 

[RedToad64]

It'll be the rarest demo since PT!

The PT demo was rare? I think that the EarthBound 64 demo kind of takes the cake.

 

[Volotaire]

errr wat?

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Nintendo really just leaves everything accessable don't they



They should just release the fucking demo on the eshop

Demos don't really work like that. There's a lot of work involved in creating a demo for consumer use and it generally requires pulling people off from working on the game to do it.

Theoretically, E3 should be the one place where you should feel comfortable not locking up your hardware. Everyone is there to do a job and wouldn't risk losing it to steal a demo. But, apparently not!

 

[Coma Ecliptic]

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Skyword Sword.

Wait it happened before?

 

[E_Darkness]

Oh, a free demo is being leaked. Its a good thing. I don't see why people are upset.

The demo is 16GB. This could potentially be the entire overworld.

 

[Boney]

The balls of the guy.

 

[JimJamJones]

*demo leaks online*

Nintendo: Just for that, another year delay!

 

[bobbychalkers]

I'm picturing the leaker tazing Nintendo security ninjas while listening to Don't Sweat The Technique.

 

[……forgetit]

How did this happen? Hopefully nintendo do the right thing and just release the demo on the Eshop so everyone can enjoy it.

 

[troy122333]

Seriously? wtf. Hope this isn't true

 

[GhostTrick]

uhhhhhhh

please no?



Wait, really?

Yes. I used to play it a lot because I couldn't handle the wait. It was the E3 demo with Ghirahim first fight.
