How do Nintendo's actions here show they are serious about cracking down on piracy? They went after one uploader and won. If not him, a dozen others would take his place, some in countries where Nintendo would have difficulty presecuting them. There is no reasonable scenario where Nintendo could prevent this from being leaked on to the internet. Patting Nintendo on the back for going after one moron is one thing, thinking this has a meaningful impact on piracy is another.
How about making an OS for the Wii that isn't a joke security wise, or providing some strong and meaningful deterrant for piracy (like xbla bannings). Or *gasp* allow some of the legitimate functionality that people hack their Wiis to get, so those who want to play import games, homebrew or load games off the hdd don't need to install the homebrew channel.
