So I said, well, I want to talk to the Canadian government. They said, no, you can talk to them when you land. I got on the plane. It was one of the first airplanes after the COVID lockdowns ended. So it was just packed with people. It was an unbelievable amount of people on the plane.

It flies and gets to New Jersey, and then it has to land in New Jersey real full again, and then it would take back off and go to Toronto. But after 9-11, any time an airplane lands in America, everybody has to get off, scan their passport before they can get back on the airplane. Before 9-11, you would just sit in the terminal in what they call a transit area.

You didn't actually enter the country. Of course, the moment I scanned my passport in New Jersey, that's when an indictment showed up. And I got taken to secondary inspection. And from there, I was told I was actually going to be arrested. And they drove me to the Essex County Jail, which was the nearby jail. The FBI drove me there.

They said, you're going to stay here overnight, and then we're going to take you to where your case is. I still don't know what I'm being arrested for or what it is anything about. October the 2nd came, I got read my rights by a judge over the telephone when I was in county jail.

And that's when I found out I had 13 specific charges on me with money laundering, wire fraud, and bypassing technology measures and all that.

I get more paperwork. I ended up getting sued civically by Nintendo on an actual lawsuit. And by then I actually had lawyers working for me. So then we had to worry about the civic lawsuit and the criminal lawsuit, and the criminal charge and the civic lawsuit. So they had the two going back and forth.

Well, how that comes up with that figure is, going back to Nintendo, their experts testified that they estimated around 500,000 licenses were sold. And their experts testified that their studies show that when a system is hacked, that people buy 2.41 less games. So there's, let's say, the top 10 games, Zelda, Mario Kart, Super Mario, stuff like that. All of those top 10 games, 2.41 less sales.

So there's, let's say, the top 10 games, Zelda, Mario Kart, Super Mario, stuff like that. All of those top 10 games, 2.41 less sales.

So when a system is hacked, someone will buy maybe only seven games or eight games, not the full 10 games. So they take the $500,000 times the 2.41 times the value of the game, $59.99, comes to around $72 million. There is then three people on the indictment, me, the guy in China, and Max.

So my share of it being approximately one-third, that's just rounded off to $10 million, which is usually the max that you can get in Washington state anyway for a civic lawsuit.

Yes, I looked at it about fighting it. I discussed that with my lawyer. It's like, well, let's fight their studies. Let's fight their estimates. And basically the reply back would be, well, we're only giving you a bare minimum of $500,000. There's probably more licenses sold. And we're just talking about the Switch. We're not talking about the Gateway 3DS.
