As part of his plea arrangement, Hernandez will pay a remediation fine of $259,323 to Nintendo and spend three years in jail. Hernandez was first caught hacking Nintendo back in 2016. While still a minor, he and an associate phished a Nintendo employee for the credentials needed to steal company files. For Nintendo, though, this will be a welcome warning to others who might think of fraudulently targeting its systems.
