Nintendo Offers Bounties on Vulnerabilities

Do you enjoy modifying or hacking game systems? Are you also a Nintendo fan? If you want to earn some extra cash, Nintendo has partnered with HackerOne to assist in the hunt for vulnerability information. Nintendo is currently looking for information specifically for the Nintendo 3DS handheld systems and will pay as much as $20,000 USD depending on what you find! Nintendo hopes to cease piracy, cheating, system vulnerabilities, and more for 3DS systems through the HackerOne program.
