We're not talking about the Classic 2 Magic. We're not talking about all the other devices. We're just talking about one thing that got done. Now, if you want to fight that, then we'll add in the millions of Gateway 3DS devices were sold. We'll add in all the Classic II Magic devices were sold. That figure will then multiply into, well, could have been into 100 million, 200 million, maybe more.

Yeah, yeah, fine. We'll just cap it at $10 million. Forget about it.

Once that was settled, the key was to settle the civic one first. And then it was a lot easier to work on the criminal side. And by then, the FBI was... They knew they couldn't get the other co-defendants into the country. Other victims were not coming forward. PlayStation, Sony didn't care about the true blues. Sega, of course, didn't care about the true blues.

But there was only Nintendo left as a victim. And ESA also... representing some of the other smaller software developers that may have got affected. They were the only two victims left.

But they weren't interested. And the PS1 was a failure on their part anyway. I mean, it was being sold for $19.99. It was a disaster. The PS1 Mini. Yeah, the PS1 Mini. So they were not really interested in flying lawyers down and presenting evidence. The only people that were interested in the end was Nintendo and the ESA.

There were only two people that showed up in February for my assessment to give victim impact statements.

Yeah, that was the only thing I couldn't get rid of. If I hadn't collected any money at all, I might have been able to get away with that. But it still was the hard part of getting around. Nothing I could do about it. And I was already spent a couple years in jail by now anyway, so... What can I do? I couldn't get that time back. So you pleaded guilty to those charges?

Those charges, because I knew the maximum that the judge could give me was five years. And the government went in to the assessing hearing on February with that, saying he needs to get the full max of five years. But my lawyer fought it back with saying, well, he went through a hard time with COVID. Because of that, the probation people recommended 40 months.

And my lawyer was trying to go for 20 months, basically time served. But then the judge turned around and said, well, I can't just give him time served because I have to send a message that people that do this crime will face consequences. hard time. And I'm going to agree with the probation and say 40 months.

Yeah, that's correct. When I was in prison, once they got sentenced, I was able to get a job in prison. I was working in the education department, running a library and stuff. And I wasn't paying much. I was paying $12 to $25 a month. But some of that percentage had to go towards my $4.5 million.
