According to a translation by Nintendo Everything, Japanese media outlet Kyoto Shimbun reports the arrest of a "36-year-old female permatemp on suspicion of intimidation" on 9th February 2023 for allegedly sending death threats to a Nintendo executive in June last year.

It's unclear who exactly was targeted at the Kyoto-based headquarters, but a package sent by the suspect supposedly contained a bag of incense and some alarming documents.

One of the messages attached reportedly included notes like "I'll kill you" and "Die Nintendo!", and made reference to a specific date. According to local police, the supect has apparently never met the Nintendo executive and there's believed to be "no personal hatred".
 
This ia different. Footbalers can get death threats and it is different when a CEO is being targeted.
The former Leeds United Manager Marcelo Bielsa when he was coaching Newell’s in 1992 lost a match 6-0 and some fans followed him home. He opened his door with a grenade in his hand and threatened to pull the pin if they didn't leave. The fans ran away and he chased them down the street. That's one good way to handle death threats from stupid people.

That was then. Most of the fans now got guns too and you can't threaten them with one.
