The '''Zammis Clark Breach''' is a massive data breach of internal Nintendo files rumored to be over 2.5TB in size, carried out by British security researcher Zammis Clark.<ref>https://www.theverge.com/2019/3/28/18286027/microsoft-nintendo-vtech-security-hack-breach-researcher-guilty</ref>

 +
The '''Zammis Clark Breach''' (also known as the "Gigaleak" and the "2020 Nintendo data leak") was a data breach of internal Nintendo files carried out by British security researcher Zammis Clark.
   −
The breach occurred in March 2018 when Zammis Clark illegally breached and obtained access to Nintendo's internal network, accessing servers used for the development of Nintendo's games and consoles. Zammis downloaded a large number of files from these servers rumored to total over 2.5 terabytes, including the source code and development files for various Nintendo games as well as development repositories for Nintendo systems including the Wii, [[iQue Player]], and 3DS.

Zammis downloaded a large number of files from these servers rumoured to total over 2.54 terabytes<ref name=":1">https://archive.nyafuu.org/vp/thread/38502730/#38508085</ref>, including the source code and development files for various Nintendo games as well as development repositories for Nintendo systems including the Wii, [[iQue Player]], and 3DS.
   −
While the contents of the breach have not been released publicly in full, a number of files from the breach have been gradually released to the public since it occurred, ranging from the initial release in April 2018 up to July 2020. While the initial releases were done by Zammis himself, Zammis disappeared from the Internet (presumably due to prosecution by law enforcement) in late 2018 before news reports were released in early 2019 stating that he had been arrested for the breach, although not incarcerated due to concerns over his autism making him a potential target while in prison.
+
The earliest known date associated with the breach is March 13th, 2018; this is the modified date for every folder in the [[Emeralds.7z|September 2nd leak]]'s files. The build of the second archive in the [[October 2020 Pokémon Sword leaks|October 21st leak]] was also made on the same day. The last known date associated with the breach is May 25th, 2018; a [[October 2020 Pokémon Sword leaks|build of Pokemon Sword]] from this date was leaked in October 2020.

While the contents of the breach have not been released publicly in full, a number of files from the breach have been gradually leaked to the public since it occurred, ranging from the initial release in April 2018 up to December 2020. While the initial releases were done by Zammis himself, Zammis disappeared from the Internet (presumably due to prosecution by law enforcement) in late 2018 before news reports were released in early 2019 stating that he had been arrested for the breach. Reportedly, he was not incarcerated due to concerns over his autism making him a potential target while in prison.
    
Even though Zammis has been arrested and is presumably no longer allowed to access the Internet unsupervised, files from his breach continue to be leaked to the public (primarily on 4chan), implying that Zammis gave out data to a number of individuals prior to his arrest who are now slowly distributing it to the public.

==Timeline of Releases==
   −
The impact of the Zammis Clark Breach has been massive, releasing development files for a number of Nintendo products and exposing internal documents which were never meant to be seen by the public. Nintendo estimated damages of USD$1.8 million as a result of the breach, and as new items from the breach continue to be released, it remains to be seen what Nintendo properties will be affected and how Nintendo will respond to the situation.
+
===April 2018 - April 2020===
 
+
This was the very beginning of the Nintendo data leaks. Things including undiscovered Pokemon demos, debug ROMs, data from the 80s and 90s, and more data would be released during this period. Some of the most important leaks, the "Holy Grails" of rare gaming data also happened during this period.
<br />
  −
 
  −
===='''Ganix'''====
  −
After Zammis released the Spaceworld 97 ROMs to the pret discord server, with a limit of only 20 downloads, Team Spaceworld (TSW) was founded, made up of people who got the rom. TSW's goals were to write documentation as well as create a translation for the Spaceworld ROMs. Zammis talks with them about the stuff he had, sends it to several people for archival, and also shared screenshots.
  −
 
  −
Soon after the Spaceworld ROM was shared in pret, screenshots of the build were slowly posted to 4chan's /vp/ board. The hype ramped up and was at a maximum when the ROM got leaked. The translation was never finished (files for an unfinished translation were released on 2020, Apr 22 - this was presumed to have been from TSW) and TSW becomes quiet.
  −
 
  −
Ganix was one of the people whom Zammis entrusted his data with. He anonymously shared the Blue/Yellow assets with helix chamber and helped create the pokethon ROM (using the Blue/Yellow source code and prototype assets).
  −
 
  −
In June 2019, Ganix shared a Japanese Diamond Debug ROM with TCRF, claiming to have dumped it from a cartridge. He also supplemented it with pictures of the cartridge. He claimed to have modified a few strings in the ROM due to wanting to protect the safety of the developers. This was later believed by many to be a lie as the ROM was most probably compiled from the Diamond/Pearl source code.
  −
 
  −
In December 2019, when Ganix uploaded the Diamond/Pearl beta sprites, a friend of his leaked the URL and doxxed him on 4chan. Ganix then admitted to doing that as well as his other actions on the Glitch City Laboratories Forums, claiming he had deleted everything he had.<ref>https://forums.glitchcity.info/index.php?PHPSESSID=knva2v2ceht1om131adnj9vk35bf0ib2&topic=8950.0</ref>
     −
In March 2020, everything else TSW still had (given to them by Ganix) were released to 4chan (refer to the 2020, March 19 leak below). Ganix got furious and made a long statement on discord, saying how TSW could not be trusted. He also referred to the content Zammis gave him as "bad data", resulting in that phrase becoming synonymous with him as a result.

In May of 2020, a new era of leaking had begun. More and more data from wack0's data breach would continue to be leaked to [[Pokemon Proto General]] on 4chan, rapidly increasing in volume with every new leak. Lots of very important [[BroadOn]], [[iQue]] and Wii-related data was leaked during this time.

One new archive, [[Secure.7z]], was released to 4chan. This archive contains a bunch of leaked presentations and spreadsheets (and allegedly some source code for the Switch GameCard bootrom). It also contains plans for a different (yet familiar) design for the Nintendo Switch, the early oval design people saw in leaks from 2015 and 2016.

A few new archives were released to 4chan. 3 of these archives contain 3 revisions of [[t210_t214_brom.7z|the Switch's bootrom]], and the fourth archive contains a [[eevee.zip|beta ROM of the game Pokemon Let's Go Eevee]]. This game can only be run through hactool after using dev-keys however, as it hasn't been signed for retail consoles.
 +
 +
A comment on 4chan prior to this predicting that the Switch bootrom would be the final release strongly implied that this would have been the last release of data from the breach, at least from the entities responsible for the majority of the 2020 releases.<ref>https://archive.nyafuu.org/vp/thread/45746254/#45747887</ref> After this, no further leaking would continue for the next seven months, leading many people to believe the Nintendo leaks were over.

 +
In lieu of popular rumors saying the Switch bootrom from December would be the end of the leaks, on July 20, 2021, the community was blown away with a total of 10 new leaks of internal Nintendo data posted to 4chan. These contained datasheets for the Wii and Switch, several source code repositories related to the Wii and GameCube (such as the source code for a Nintendo internal version of Revolution SDK 3.2, and the source code for the GameCube startup menu), more diagnostic tools, an undiscovered prototype of Pokemon Let's Go Eevee, and much more.

This leak contains several internal Wii disc images, including the "Wii Crusher", a disc that restores the Wii to its initial factory state before having the System Menu & firmware installed. This gives a way to install "sdboot" or "nandboot" on the Wii, official bootloaders that can run custom code from the SD card or internal NAND, which would allow for BootMii as boot2 on any Wii (including Family Edition and Mini consoles).

After Zammis released the Spaceworld 97 ROMs to the pret discord server with a limit of only 20 downloads, Team Spaceworld (TSW) was founded, made up of people who got the ROM. TSW's goals were to write documentation as well as create a translation for the Spaceworld ROMs. Zammis mentioned the files he had in TSW, and sent it to several people for archival. He also shared screenshots.

'''2020, May 29'''

Soon after the Spaceworld ROM was shared in pret, screenshots of the build were slowly posted to 4chan's /vp/ board. The hype ramped up and was at a maximum when the ROM got leaked. The translation was never finished (files for an unfinished translation were released on 2020, Apr 22 - this was presumed to have been from TSW) and TSW becomes quiet.
 +

Ganix was one of the people whom Zammis entrusted his data with. He anonymously shared the Blue/Yellow assets with Helix Chamber and helped create the Pokethon ROM (using the Blue/Yellow source code and prototype assets).

Nintendo's titlekey generation script was released to 4chan.<ref>https://i.imgur.com/0EcgYcz.png</ref>
+
In December 2019, when Ganix uploaded the Diamond/Pearl beta sprites, a friend of his leaked the URL and doxxed him on 4chan. Ganix then admitted to uploading the beta sprites as well as other actions on the Glitch City Laboratories Forums, stating he had deleted everything.<ref>https://archives.glitchcity.info/forums/board-2/thread-8950/page-0.html</ref>
    +
In March 2020, everything else TSW still had (given to them by Ganix) were released to 4chan (refer to the 2020, March 19 leak above). Ganix got furious and made a long statement on discord, saying how TSW could not be trusted. He also referred to the content Zammis gave him as "bad data", resulting in that phrase becoming synonymous with him.

In April 2020, Ganix posted screenshots of the following: Pokemon Mystery Dungeon (GBA) debug menu, Pokemon Generation 3 games' debug menu and Pokemon Ranger builds in the Hall of Origin Discord server.<ref>https://i.imgur.com/TlFkkQz.png</ref> He deleted those messages shortly after posting them. These were later posted to 4chan (refer to 2020, May 19 and 2020, September 30 leaks above).<references />

Big leak of source code and prototypes of multiple Super Nintendo Entertainment System games, full source code to Pokemon Diamond/Pearl (including all commits since 2006, March 8), an unreleased GBA peripheral "netcard", as well as lotcheck master ROMs of Nintendo Entertainment System and Famicom were released to 4chan. This was termed the ''gigaleak''.<ref>https://i.imgur.com/LnRJsOz.png</ref>
