Poor grandma, receiving a visit from the Yakuza for Xmas...

Shame on Nintendo. As per usual.

While Im glad he's avoided them so far, gloating about misusing bankruptcy is a great way to get denied for it.

I mean, is it misusing? When one of the largest companies in the world decides they want every penny you have, that's pretty much the only course of action you can take. Or suicide, I guess.

with that many documented attempts, a judge will likely sign-off on whatever alternative means of service that jurisdiction has.. like usps or legal notice in newspapers (yes, they're still used for some things).

Especially with him openly bragging about avoiding the court... He clearly knows about the suit; physically handing him the paperwork is an unnecessary formality at this point.

How did he dodge the lawsuit

High dex & rolled a Nat 20.

They can't find an address. He's very likely a basement dweller sucking off the tit from one of his family relatives to sustain his standard of living

That's why Nintendo wants to serve his family members cause they probably know he's at one of them...~~and once he's been served they're responsible to send it to him or else they will be held accountable~~

Edit: not true

Wait, serving a legal notice can be made transitive to people not part of the legal system?

Like, I could just sue someone the other end of the country and then arrange things so that the notice is delegated to my landlord if (small if) they're being a jerk?
