That took a minute
Had to delve into the patent dungeon. Its large and all the names are incomprehensible.
It could be they waited to not trigger the Streisand effect too hard.
Fuck off, Nintendo.
It is probably something stupid like Nintendo having a patent for “pocket” in names, since Pokemon is “pocket monsters”
Patents in videogames should be banned.
I agree, but I think all intellectual property laws should be repealed. I came to the conclusion that patent, copyright, and trademark are all varying levels of bad years ago and I think it clearly holds the human race and human progress back by limiting creative iteration.
Fuck Nintendo don’t buy their products.
Outside of a passing similarity to Pokemon, I wonder what the suit is about
Nostalgia is a hard drug. You can still appreciate games from you childhood & not buy games or consoles from a evil company.
Plus, there’s always piracy. With that said, I generally prefer the older games anyway.
Nintendo sues Nintendo for using Nintendo intellectual property
Is there any way to support pocketpair during the lawsuit? I already bought the game, and it’s one of my favorites, and pokemon can eat a dick
DM me, I can point you towards an account you can send money to.
Maybe if the pokémon company had done anything to advance their gameplay in the past 30 years people wouldn’t be so excited to try a better pokémon game. They should probably sue the developers of Ni No Kuni for also making a better pokémon game.
Ahh I see, Nintendo has discovered the internet.
I heard that Pocket Pair use relatively questionable methods to develop their games such as AI and literal copy-paste for their concept art which they then just alter.
But its more hearsay than everything else I guess.
Please don’t post hearsay. If you want to post something incriminating, take a second to verify it first. This is how bad rumors propagate, and as a society today it’s a problem we’re facing like never before. Do your part!
In this case you’re completely wrong.
