How are you able to defend a company who screwed up, didn't send the device back to Nintendo... And thus it ends up in someone elses hands... So Sega decides to potentially destroy that persons life in order to undo their own screwup?

Where do you base your logic and empathy?

You are assuming Sega screwed up at all. Do you have proof that a Sega employee was authorized by Sega to dispose of the items or sell the items? What legal code can you quote saying, "These dev kits were the rightful property of either Sega or the scrapyard (and not Nintendo's property)?"

You are the one being illogical here by jumping to conclusions based solely on the testimony of the accused reseller. And by ignoring property laws. Let's wait until more information comes out before trying to pin the blame on Sega. As for the reseller, for the third time, he would have known full well that he was buying property that couldn't be legally sold. Again, He was buying property that he knew full well couldn't be legally sold by Sega, or the scrapyard. 

Read the article.
It was legitimately acquired. Sega was incompetent. 

Either way, we will find out when this stupid lawsuit sorts it all out or gets settled. Hopefully it doesn't ruin someones life forever.
