Guess all that rage about Palworld had some positive effects for Nintendo huh?
I can’t recall any other company capturing a millennia old concept like summoning creatures and making it technically illegal for anyone else to use
At least the Witch of Endor is probably too dead by now to claim prior art?

There is no way this will actually fly. I am assuming they will use to hassle and threaten a couple of companies for some concessions, maybe scare some people off, and then it is going to end up in court and thrown out.

Why isn’t there more pushback… Read more »

In a sane world with functional law that should be true, but I don’t think current America qualifies as such.
Okay. Who said “at least it can’t get worse”? I’m 127% sure Nintendo going mask off evil is a direct result of one of you all saying it.
I swear their legal department is better staffed than their development department.
