'Operation Hodges'

Operation Hodges is a supposed operation from Nintendo which took place in 2003. Hiroshi Yamauchi got in contact with a data preservationist named 'W. William Hodges' to hide the evidence of Personalisation and the 1995 build among others. However, Hodges actually wanted to betray Nintendo and 'destroy Japan' for 'taking his family' the stuff sent to Hodges was bought by MCMax05 of reddit in 2005. The fate of Hodges is unknown, he is possibly the 'W Hodges' listed in UK death records in 2013.

The letters (found on floppy disk)
親愛なる茂、パーソナライズを祝うテープを拭いてください. 飛行機に乗って博物館に行き、ホッジに会って彼と話します.

親愛なる茂、私は連絡先を見つけました、彼の名前はホッジです、彼はテープと手紙を隠します、そしてマリオ64の個人化実験のすべての言及. 彼は戦争のベテランです.

親愛なる山内さん、私はテープを取り、ポーツマスの博物館にある私の避難所に隠します. 手紙はコンピューターゲームのビルドでブランドフォードに送られます. あなたのクライアント、ホッジスから.

Share what you can about personalisation and the builds, I want to destroy Japan and give them the punishment they deserve for taking my family. From W William Hodges.
