They said no data was lost but I'm still a little worried. This better not delay the eShop, we've already been delayed once.

eShop won't be delayed. This happened several weeks ago and the eShop launch was confirmed, what... two, three days ago. :P

Hmm, Nintendo and Sony both hacked and Microsoft is having no problems at this point in time. Hmmm.

The word "Gem" is overused.

you're joking, right? why would they go after Microsoft's website or XBLA when they can get all the info they like through a Windows security hole, or better yet a nice trojan or keylogger? there's way more Windows users out there than there are people who have Xboxes :3

Also whoever hacked Nintendo did it for teh lulz cuz nothing can be gained from hacking them
@tbd i think he was implying MS is behind this. Only Bill Gates could pull off a hack with such skill

From what I understand, these people just got on to Nintendo's online server just to prove they could do it.
