It’s led to some amazing sets over the years, and the best part is, the creator even gets a share of the profits. I recently saw a design that I think has a really good chance of getting approved – it’s fantastic and I’m excited to see if it makes the cut!

Nintendo ended up getting $2 million from the settlement, and Modded Hardware is now permanently banned from making those devices. It just shows you how much Nintendo will defend its intellectual property.
