Apparently Nintendo was hacked by the guys who are attacking sony: source. No sensitive information and no personal details were obtained but Nintendo confirmed the breach. So yeah, no company seems to be safe from these guys. They say they are ''helping'' by pointing at holes in the system but they go ahead and release personal details. These guys are bringing important heat on themselves, they better be sure they are completely anonymous. 
 
*edit* Yeah the title is wrong.

Why does every so-called hacker group have a name that sounds like it was conceived on either 4chan or Something Awful?

These miscreants have gone too far!

0 respect for these jack asses, these hacks are completely pointless. They aren't even funny.

They're just attention whores, let's ignore them until they go away.

DEFCON 2011 is gonna be so fucking good this year.

What's with all these assholes.

You were hacked by lulzsec.

Why can't we all just get along?!

they attacked an FBI owned website and then tweeted about it under the hashtag of #FuckFBIFriday, and shared all the information that they could via the hack.

If they do bring sony down during there press conference i hope they have somewhere to hide for 50 years.

Is no one excited to see them talk about it at DEFCON this summer?!

Fuck, might end up getting an event badge for this year after all.

I share your zero respect, I don't share your opinion that these are all pointless. Unless you consider achieving one's goal of costing the company you want to hurt money and confidence in the brand pointless.

They aren't though. This hack did virtually nothing to Nintendo and their Sony hack didn't even hit Sony's game division, though I'm sure they want everyone to think it did.

They are just doing this to get in the headlines, they want to look like big boys but they don't have the computing power to pull of anything big or the wit to do anything clever.

Lol, they seem to be confident about their skills.

These miscreants have gone too.  Every time I read your bio, I read your name as Anal.

Idiot kids that are desperate for attention.

They breached that specific server so, yeah it's a story. Go troll another place.

It wouldn't be a proper GB thread if ryanwho didn't troll it at some point.

I guess Microsoft is next?

They do realize they're pissing off billions of users and people out in the world? Sooner or later they will feel the aftermath of that by either jail time or with a bullet.

They're the worst. Durrr we're doing good by letting innocent people not be able to use the hardware and software they purchased. It's like the idiots never realized that it wouldn't be a problem if they spent their days doing something more productive than hacking.

Bunch of stupid kids craving attention because their parents don't love them and they have no friends.

Guess we're waiting to see if MS gets hax0red next?

I don't think they would actually talk about it at DEFCON, I mean, FBI dudes go to these conferences.

I kinda wish I could hack their faces with a baseball bat. Oh well.

Is there even a point behind any of this?

Uh oh! I better change all my friend codes just to be safe!

Uh oh! I better change all my friend codes just to be safe!

I didn't see this coming. It's interesting that this time round they didn't leak out any inside data and this looks like a genuine effort by LulzSec to expose a hole in Nintendo's security, but put alongside their previous actions this only makes the whole situation more confusing. When they said they were going to hack Sony to begin with they didn't offer any clear logic as to why they were doing it, when they did attack Sony they said that they were only exposing security flaws and that they weren't just showing off hacking skills, but then leaked a bunch of data for unknown reasons anyway, and now this. These guys certainly seem to be skilled hackers, but even if they have some idea of why they're doing this now I'm not convinced they started these attacks with any logic as to what they were doing.

Oh snap my friend codes and My Nintendo coins!...wait...oh...nvm.

This is starting to get a little out of hand. I mean, it was already, but now it's more facepalm worthy than eyeroll worthy. Enough is enough already, I hope isn't effected by anything like this.

Nitendo     hehe

I wish they get in jail eventually.

wish nintendo would throw the book at them. nice to see these asshats up in court.

The FBI need to get in on this shit.

Man, remember Charlie Sheen?
 
Thank god for internet hacker gangs. If not them, then who?

Anyone else slightly annoyed that this happened some time age, yet Nintendo didn't say anything until now?
