I'm gonna call Obama! He'll know how to get me out of this sticky situation!

zelda delayed to 2018 because they need to remake the entire thing out of principle

I mean, I so wish this were happening, but it's totally not. No way could someone do this without being noticed. I hope I'm proven wrong though

I'm actually confident that this is true, one of the "hackers" contacted this streamer and he was talking about how he could actually dump the game, without phisically touching the wii u. According to him, he can just boot up browser, start exploit, and let it run in the background. However, he mentioned how he had to rewrite the kernel or something (cant remember exactly)

If this is real, I'm buying a wii u.

EDIT: It could also be a network dump, doesn't *have* to be through SD

I have seen no source and no proof to back up the original claim and I'm not going to just trust some random person on their word when the internet is full of trolls. So do you have any proof? Does this information come from a reliable source? Do you know the source and personally trust them? Do you know who this "hacker" is?
I just find it hard to believe.
@Mathew_Wi made a very good point. The dumping speed would be limited by the wifi speed, at best you could get a few MB/s and it would still take an hour to dump. In fact you would probably not get anywhere near that much as the ddd thread states "It can takes few hours to dump a game through the network, as the network average speed is 800KB/s to 1MB/s." and with those speeds it would take 4-5 hours.
Even if someone managed to start the dumping without being spotted,
during the dumping process the game would be stuck on the logo screen and it wouldn't take long before someone sees it and thinks it's strange and then either promptly reboots the unit or decides to investigate further.
Sadly the chances of that being successfully pulled off given the limitations is infinitesimally small.

Sadly it's not likely to happen.

I dont believe for a second that the "leak" is real, but I have to clarify that if he was dumping to the SD card, it would be dumping much faster than through wifi. Your only limit is the write speed of the Wii U and the write speed of the SD card.

Someone being able to gain physical access to the unit is even less likely to happen. I have never seen a demo unit that wasn't locked behind a display case and that is just the demo units at game stores, you can be sure the units at E3 are even better protected and heavily guarded.

No. Why?

So, assuming a very fast 100 MB/s SD, about 3 minutes, plus 5-10 to set up. Still easily long enough to be noticed.

SUPPOSEDLY the dude was caught.

I don't really know what's bloody going on ;-;

According to who? It honestly sounds like all of this was made up.

 

[Shining Greninja]

If this is real I hope they leak the SM demo

It said on a now deleted twitter account (not the same one) that the guy was caught

I read the same thing in a tweet, also no source so I think they're just jumping on the troll bandwagon.

 

[Vanth88]

Well they leaked the skyward sword demo (which was awesome btw). I can only assume someone, somewhere, has leaked the demo.

Well, I don't believe it. I'd imagine that "someone" would have gotten at least one picture or short clip of whoever was doing the dirty deed before getting hauled away if it were true.

 

[proflayton123]

At least I have the full Sun and Moon prototype!

I think he was joking.

 

[hii915]

oh he was talking about the zelda game dump and I thought I saw you picture somewhere

 

[Shining Greninja]

I think he was joking.

SHUT UP DON'T SPOIL THE MOMENT *preys to arceus that he is not joking
