Apparently 450 Nintendo network id accounts have been hacked this month. This includes full details and a list of which has been posted on the net but below is a link to a list of id names that are affected. I had a run through and didn't recognize any but you may want to consider looking for yourself (ctrl+f will open a search box on pc, just type your name. Thanks 9) and ofcourse usual safety precautions apply to protect your account. pastebin.com/3rJDwBqnHere's a Nintendo response (thanks Ron) “To protect our users, we have suspended all compromised Nintendo Network IDs and linked Nintendo Accounts to prevent any potential unauthorised access. No Nintendo service or server was breached,” “In total, 30 users were affected in Australia & New Zealand. We have emailed to alert them to the situation, and are asking them to phone Nintendo Customer Service to update their login info and reactivate their accounts.” squishturtle.com/nintendo-suspends-compromised-accounts-following-hack-9f533cbcc40a#.e9prdkwhj

Personal info I'd guess. Email, address, credit card maybe? I don't remember what there is. Here's one actual example of what has happened. Something to do with Pokemon I think.. What the hell has happened to the world? Aren't young guys dreaming of naked women anymore?
