danielhanrahantng, do gaming w Nintendo now has a US patent on summoning characters and making them battle for you | VGC

They need to be sued and evidence available needs to be used in court against them on why the patent needs to be invalidated.

danielhanrahantng, do gaming w Doug Bowser is stepping down as Nintendo of America president and COO | VGC

That is a good thing to an extent because doug bowser was the reason for most of nintendos current problems.

I was just looking in the web to learn more about Devon Pritchard (the woman who becomes America’s next president as Nintendo of America) and found following line in another blog post article: economictimes.indiatimes.com/…/124139537.cms

She holds a Doctor of Law (JD) degree from Gonzaga University School of Law (1998–2001)

Doctor of Law (Wikipedia) - That explains a lot. Nintendo loves lawyers.

Quexotic,

Is it weird that I misread that as gazonga twice before I got it right?

From bowser to o pritchard? Lame. Should have been Luigi or Mario

theangriestbird,

Pritchard is the final boss in Super Mario Wonder, not enough people talk about this. Really wild that they anticipated this change that far ahead.

huquad,

Can you imagine if Nintendo bankrolled Luigi through his trials just to hire him for his name?

hddsx,

Unfortunately, your princess is in another castle. There’s a reason they chose Bowser as CEO and not Peach or Mario or Luigi

huquad,

Of course, my alternate reality is where Nintendo are the good guys.

I’ll always remember him for Mario and Luigi being tied up in this image.

“unlock the ability to purchase” 😕

You have to “work” hard to get the privilege to give them money and buy something, that is made rare. People will buy, because they think they “earned” the right to, and that they get something others don’t have. Not the biggest fan of something like that.

    I hear you, but ime, the people that are this obsessed with trophies would LOVE to have exclusive merch to show off to their friends. So for me, it’s more of a “good for them. anyway…”

    NewNewAugustEast, do gaming w Microsoft is raising Xbox console prices in the US again, five months after its last price increase | VGC

    Keep raising it, or lowering it doesn’t matter.

    Would never own an Xbox. Microsoft products? Hell no.

    That isn’t the point…

    Brilliant move. Not enough people buying your thing? Raise prices!

    Hexagon,

    The raises will continue until sales improve

    Megaman_EXE, do gaming w Palworld will leave Early Access in 2026 with a ‘massive update’ planned for version 1.0 | VGC

    My only issue with palworld is the gameplay loop. Your options seem to be collecting pals, exploring, building bases, and then fighting the arena bosses. It feels like it has solid fundamentals, but it just doesn’t feel like a fully fleshed out game

    theangriestbird,

    They definitely have a lot to add with this 1.0 update. Others have pointed out that they never delivered with their last game, Craftopia.

    nokturne213,

    I found it pretty boring too, and far too micromanagey.

    HappyFrog, do gaming w ‘That claim is startling’: Tencent fires back at Sony’s lawsuit accusing it of ‘cloning’ Horizon with Light of Motiram | VGC

    God I hate copyright

    theangriestbird,

    In Sony’s defense, this actually seems like a case of copyright working as intended. Tencent basically started creating a Horizon game before getting approval from Sony, then they asked Sony and Sony said no, so they just went ahead and made it anyway, but they did the bare minimum to obscure that the game used to be a Horizon project. If Sony can prove that these facts are true, they definitely have a case. On the other hand, Tencent may have a point when they say that Horizon is in itself a derivative concept, so it’s a bit silly to accuse anyone of ripping off a franchise that is not particularly original.

    HappyFrog,

    I dislike the way copyright is intended :/ people should be able to do what they want.

    theangriestbird,

    totally fair. However, I think there’s a case to be made for it, at least so long as we have to live under capitalism. If an individual artist comes up with a unique character that becomes popular, that character is an important piece of that artist’s livelihood. Ripoffs and clones would eat into the artist’s livelihood, and now the artist doesn’t have enough money to live on the earnings from their art alone. They have to go get a soul-sucking job to make ends meet. Should we not be protecting that artist’s livelihood from copycats that would seek to profit from the artist’s creativity without paying the artist for that right? Should we not be doing everything we can to ensure that artists can live off their artwork alone, if they are talented enough?

    prole,

    My neighbor spent 3 years recording an album, but I have a larger online following, so I just took it and put my name on it and now I’m making $10 per sale.

    Fuck copyright! Do what you want!
