Nintendo continues its fight against gamers

Yeah, been seeing the patent troll of summoning companions for a week or so now on social media, didn't know about the mount patent.
MTG Arena, Yugioh, Elder Scrolls, etc. will *all* potentially be affected by those

Not only that my friend. Final Fantasy. Hollow Knight. Hollow Knight Silksong. Deal Cells. Divinity Original Sin 2. Baldur Gate 3. Mega Man 11. Solasta. Terraria. Darksiders 2. Dishonored. Temtem. The list go on. They even sue the US government because of a Promotion Video who used a Pokemon music. Honestly at this point, they are delusional. 

And as if it not enough...this next new is concerning:




To summarize the video, the Nintendo company said mods can't be considered games, since they need the original game to work. It is beyond stupid if you asked me, but I know why they decided to go that path. Pocketpair used the Pokemon mods style of games as examples to protect its case, and Nintendo knowing full well they look stupid and are desperate to fail, decided to use this awful crap of a excuse. Using the same logic, then DLCs can't be considered games, due to be needed to use the original game.

Honestly at this point all of this looks like a bizarre circus of stupidity. And Nintendo are the clowns. They are clearly desperate since it's painted obvious they gonna loose, and now they want to drag all game industry to the mud with them. No matter how much they will destroy.

For Nintendo is not anymore about protecting their IPs. No, it's dowright greed in their scheming and dowright poisoned black hearts.

So, I ask again this question: It is still worth supporting Nintendo at this point? Because the once respectable Nintendo that existed once, who once respected its costumers, died with Satoru Iwata. And with it, its soul. And in it's place, the embodiment of corpo greed.

Very wise words indeed. I lowkey feel bad for having liked Nintendo at some point (I don't anymore, and refuse to support them)

Just gonna share this, Palworld's creators announced a farming sim shortly after Pokopia was announced

They even sue the US government because of a Promotion Video who used a Pokemon music.

The suing hasn't happened yet, afaik, and without getting too far into the political aspects of this, the video was a Homeland security arrest montage set to the English theme from the original Pokemon series, to my understanding, with clips from the anime as well, and mocked up Pokemon cards with the mugshots of some prisoners.

I did heard. Some people speculate during the lawsuit of Nintendo, Pocketpair problably had to reveal some of it's plans of future games, and Palfarm problably was one of those games and Nintendo seeing this might took that same idea and then use to create that Pokemon Farm game they made. I think it's just timing of game, but I would not discard that possibility. 

Site note: How much you people bet Nintendo will make another patent for Farm games. Something among the lines of: "Game developers can't make farm games where you can take care of animals or creatures". They petty to this level at this point.

Maybe. Still, it's still bizarre that story. It's like...the story where they sued a supermarket called Super Mario (who is called like that because it is a supermarket and the owner name is Mario). Short story, they lost the process. They are so deranged that at this point, they sue the US it's not so much farfetch of a idea at this point.

Again, they go to far. It's not about protecting its IP's. It's about pure greed, and they want will destroy ALL game industry. They want to destroy any and all improvement of games. A long time I give up in see any improvement from Nintendo games since I see they refused to improve and evolve, so I look in other games and see improvement, art and true passion. Something nintendo doesn't have anymore.

They don't want to evolve their games? They can be my guests. The big N and their games can crumble to ruin and go backrupt for all I care. But now they wan't to destroy something I love? Now THIS become personal. I hope Nintendo loose it's lawsuit, and be a huge shame in this world for everyone to see.

Not exatcly wise words. It's words born from pure indignation. I said in my previous post: It's been a long time I give up on Nintendo since I see they refused to even try to evolve and improve in their games and story (Pokemon included) so I decided to look at other games and other studios who had the burning passion of what is about to be a true piece of art of gaming. And I found it. So many projects, who dared to BEYOND what Pokemon even dared to do. In be more bold, and more accessible to as many as possible. Sure, not all of them was perfect and had it's glaring flaws (looking at you Temtem) but you can see the passion. And the soul of those projects, even if it was imperfected. 

Don't feel bad for liking Nintendo in the past. It's a truth that nintendo at some point once cared for it's audience. For helping shape the gaming world by the creation of the Pokemon franchise which is reconize by the entire world. Along with many other stories of many people in the world with different franchises.

But they are not the same people anymore. The people who care there are LONG gone. And if there someone there who still cared...they are silent by those who are above them, incapable of change ANYTHING.

...Honestly? I just...feel tired. I just want to Nintendo leave the gamers and game devs along. They can milk their franchises alone and keep making their slops if they refused to improved. They can go bankrupt for ALL I cared. But drag down ALL game world for pettiness, jealous and greed just because Pocketpair decided to be bold when they refused to be? This only mean. One. Thing.

This. Means. WAR.

So...I see the mega evolutions released in Pokemon ZA...and, well, I a big fan of Mega Evolution. But...

Most of the Mega Evolutions of that game is...awful. just awful.

If this is the level of design we gonna received from official games, them I never want to see a Mega Evolution anymore in any official games. Mega Evolution can die at this point. The only ones I will be curious will on fan games and made by people outside of Nintendo/Game freak. Because at least they soul and passion instead of, you know, laziness from them. 

...Good grief even with low expectations Nintendo sure know how crawl on my skin...
