How would you say that? Nintendo can flat out prove it was him that uploaded it and it was downloaded at least 50,000 times. We can go on and on all day how those could have been sales or not, but in the end, we still know 50,000 people got to enjoy the game for free so that's a lot of money Nintendo missed out on.
There's really no justification at all for what he did and he deserves every bit of his punishment. As I said elsewhere, I hope Nintendo makes a habit of this and other publishers start doing the same thing.
It won't stop piracy by any means, but it sure will make people think twice before they upload something to any public file sharing site.
