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

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

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.
Xbox360/PS3/Wii is peak.

There are a couple games where it's an open secret that the "community" modders were the devs
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

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.
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.

Make game open source
What do now Nintendo?
Nintendo has sued multiple open source projects and their creators into oblivion.

This post did not contain any content.
My shitty no-stakes conspiracy theory is that said modders are comprised of anonymous Palworld devs who are as salty about the removal as we are, and who know the code better than anyone.

Is Nintendo the new "N-word"?
Racists soon trying to fit the N-word into Nintendo in 3...

wrote last edited by [email protected]You don't even have to use a git server if you want. Just dump the source code everywhere.
The smaller the source code is the easier that is, I imagine a mod like this would take very little data. Would be extra funny if its so small it could be shared as a QR code. But probably not quite that small.

I can agree with that.

Nothing that I can think of off the top of my head but every once in a while you'll hear about restored content or various IP shenanigans getting pushed by definitely-not-the-devs on modding forums.
