You can still be sued. At that point, you either:
a) defend yourself as normal, while attempting to maintain anonymity (difficult & doesn't solve anything)
b) let the case go to default judgement (for likely an enormous amount of money) at which point Nintendo has every reason to try to track you down in real life, and can use the courts to help them do so. Hope you were really, really thorough about your anonymity.
- bitcharmer 3y agoHow do you sue someone that is anonymous?
- gaganyaan 3y agoOpSec is hard. The Silk Road guy was anonymous, up until he wasn't.
- Eiim 3y agoFile a lawsuit against a John/Jane Doe defendant(s) and describe who the defendants are, e.g., the people who code and maintain the emulator. Maybe a little harder than if you had the names but not by a lot.

There was famously a recent case where a defendant known only by a Bitcoin address was served by sending a transaction with an attached message to that address.
