Yesterday Bloomberg reporter Jason Schreier wrote an interesting article on video game leakers and one of those was the respected leaker, Pyoro. Jason contacted Pyoro over direct message ahead of the article being published and the leaker admitted to Jason that his source was a Nintendo employee based in Japan who seemingly had access to the company’s web backend. Last night Pyoro published a tweet on X saying “Wtf I didn’t know they would include my responses in their report.” Pyoro has now locked the X account which has amassed nearly 110K followers.
Pretty naive for a leaker to be surprised when they say what their source is and it leaks.
I was thinking the same thing.
Possibly might have gotten a Nintendo employee fired.
Well to be clear though, the employee choosing to leak this info was taking this risk.
Nice. Now if we can just get news sites to stop posting rumors as “news”.

You do realize that by continuing to use the site you are giving MNN no reason to change anything, right?
If you don’t like what the site is doing, leave.
Oh, I’m way ahead of you. I’ve stopped clicking on rumor articles.
And commenting it ?
I should warn you; I’m known to hold people to their word.
Well leave then.
He was interviewed by Bloomberg, a gaming website known to report on leaks and rumours, and now he’s surprised his responses got posted?
Either he’s playing dumb or the online attention he craves has rotted his brain.
I would assume He plays dumb and even his response to bloomberg wasn’t a real conformation on the source
Insane to me he pulled a blunder this bad. Like this is a historic mistake
Maybe I’m starting to get old, but I almost just typed out ‘epic fail’ since I couldn’t think of a word for ‘mistake’ 😭
dude……. that’s what they do……………..
Mario fixed all the leakages, not a single drop anymore
Very funny comment! Five stars!
Looks like Nintendo Ninjas got him.
Knowing Pyoro, he will come back in 1 month as if nothing had happened…
Who still believes that he will stop?
With Pyoro’s account now locked, the future of this prolific leaker remains uncertain. Will he continue to share insider information under increased scrutiny, or will this exposure mark the end of his leaking activities?
