Nintendo Hacked, All Details Still Safe

In the midst of the Sony hacking fiasco, Nintendo have also been hacked in an attempt by a group to highlight security.

A hacking posse known as Lulzsec have claimed responsibility for the attack, and admitted that no harm was intended for the global gaming publisher - but did manage to access one of Nintendo's servers by modifying a configuration file, Reuters report.

In response Nintendo did confirm that the machine did not contain any customer/user details and that "customer information is our utmost priority".
