Palworld Modders Are Restoring Mechanics Pocketpair Was Forced to Patch Out Due to Nintendo and The Pokémon Company’s Patent Lawsuit - IGN

I wish the keeper of many fond childhood memories wasn't a company I fervently wish would die in a fire.
I'll never understand why Nintendo hates their fans so much. Just because Japanese copyright law is shitty, doesn't mean that you have to be equally as shitty.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think there is a law forcing Nintendo to enforce copyright. They willingly choose to be assholes.

This is why more games should openly embrace modding.
A "we're legally not allowed to do this gameplay mechanic" writeup and let the community unofficially provide it.
There are a couple games where it's an open secret that the "community" modders were the devs

Yeah, post gen-6 is where i stopped. It felt like the games were really dumbed down, and they leaned way too hard into 3d graphics.
wrote last edited by [email protected]like i was literally laughing at post-swsh graphics, the models were randomly stretching, or there is an incomplete map, or the clouds are all terrible pixels. MASUDA clearly hates pokemon now. i think the biggest reasons was omitting most pokemon from the future games. people still bought the game, and they were complaining about it on reddit.

It's finally gotten way out-of-hand, even for me. Gen XI will be the first main series Pokémon games in 30 years I won't be pre-ordering, let alone even buying. First-party Switch games were already way too expensive, rarely ever going on sale, and now we may be moving to an $80 standard. And it seems the main selling point of the Switch 2 in the latest Direct was a bunch of ports. At that price point, there's no reason not to just get a Steam Deck and sail the high seas for first-party titles. At least Valve won't brick my device if I hurt their feelings.
wrote last edited by [email protected]i dint buy it at the time because it was switch 400+60+ DLC, and nintendo internet+ pokemon perpetual cold storage, and then i heard every game got worst and worst. and it was difficult enough to put homebrew on the 3ds when that was available, because nintendo was constantly updating to break the cracks.
and GEN 6 was already kinda dumbed down , but had enough content to keep going.

The monkey paw's finger curls...there was much rejoicing.

I'm curious how close this guess is, based solely on the generations you mention as good; are you 28?
i stopped playing the console like 5 years ago. just had no interest as i found other games to play. also play the free versions of pokemon cards online.

Should I tell them? Who wants to tell them

Pes has relied on players to recreate real teams they don't have licensing for for years

Last gen was a bunch of ports too. New games didn't start popping off until middle of the consoles lifespan.

Xbox360/PS3/Wii is peak.

That's funny! Any particular mods I should look for?

I know at least one of the factorio devs released a few mods of things that didn't really fit with being in the base game but are interesting mods, like MIRVs. But that isn't even a secret, it's published under the same name.

Never give Nintendo your money
yes.
they are devils
yes.
with subpar games
no. There's good reasons why nintendo games are the most pirated games.
Subpar for the price they are asking then?

Love it. Just hope big daddy N doesn't go after them too.
Make it open source

Make it open source
That won't stop a C&D.

Then someone else forks it

Fork it to another git server. Because forking it on the same platform will also be caught by a C&D

Because of international trade agreements, Japan’s copyright and patent laws are not meaningfully or substantively different than any other neoliberal country’s. That is an excuse circulated by apologists. Nintendo’s aggressive, litigious, anti-consumer tactics are purely a matter of company policy.

Nintendo has sued multiple open source projects and their creators into oblivion.
