Nintendo has won a lengthy legal battle in the French Supreme Court against the company Dstorage, which owns and operates the file-sharing website 1fichier.com, in a judgement which the Japanese giant trumpets as a victory "for the entire games industry."

The Judicial Court of Paris ordered web file host Dstorage to pay €935,000 in damages back in 2021, but Dstorage appealed the judgment multiple times, eventually taking it all the way to France's highest court. The case is now closed, though, and Dstorage lost, being forced to pay Nintendo the awarded damages as well as the company's legal fees.

Nintendo says the decision is significant ‘for the entire games industry.’

Don't mess with Nintendo - the company has just won another lawsuit against developers who pirated their games.

Although the Paris Court of Appeals had previously ruled in favour of Nintendo in 2023, this further clarification from the French judiciary Court is considered the final word on the matter, marking "an end to a long lawsuit".

Nintendo has successfully concluded its legal battle against Dstorage, the operator of the French file-sharing platform 1fichier.com, which it accused of hosting pirated copies of its games.
