Conduit Hacker Deems The Conduit’s Online ‘Virtually Unprotected’

The Conduit

Yes, I know that’s a screenshot from Mario Strikers Charged.  Read the portion below taken from The Wiire’s interview with hetan2; The Conduit’s first hacker to get why:

What have they told you about what they are doing regarding it? Has Nintendo themselves seemed to be interested in combating the issue?

hetoan2: HVS has not told me exactly what they plan to do in their future games, but I have given them some suggestions for online checks and a couple of different banning methods (for future online hackers) that are different from Nintendo’s.

Currently, they are looking out for online hackers using codes and are tracing MAC addresses that are sent by the game that will be collected, sent to Nintendo, and eventually banned.

Nintendo doesn’t really seem interested with online hacking in non-Nintendo and their less popular games. Right now they seem to be primarily concerned with Mario Kart Wii and preventing homebrew all together with future updates and removing videos on YouTube for new exploits (like bannerbomb).

If you need proof they’re neglecting their online system in older games. I’m striker of the day in Mario Strikers Charged with very obvious hacked stats. [Here's proof] that they don’t and won’t look, even though they did in the past (since inappropriate names were allowed before)

You know, for a hacker, this guy seems like he wants to help High Voltage and Nintendo.
