    Game copiers for Nintendo DS ruled illegal in UK

    A High Court has ruled that devices that allow gamers to play pirated video games are illegal in the UK.

    The ruling specifically targets a range of popular devices which can be used to store and play copied games on the Nintedo DS handheld console.

    The ruling says "game copiers" are illegal to import, advertise and sell in the UK.

    The defendants - Playables Limited and Wai Dat Chan - had argued that they allow gamers to play home-made games.
