    Has Nintendo ever had the entire rom of a major game leak before it was released?

          Skyward Sword too, going back to the Wii era. That was probably just someone at a games store dumping the disc when it was shipped to them before they could legally sell it though.

            And Metroid dread. I finished that one the weekend before it came out. Then bought the collectors tin.

              One of the gen 9 pokemon games. I think violet?

              I was out with my wife's family coordinating with my brother by text trying to get it downloaded.

      In case this was asked in earnest, yes- it happens all the time. Nintendo releases have been notoriously leaky for about 3 years now
