    lol nice.

    Fuck Nintendo, but this is funny to me because it’s just another cash grab early access game by a pop up game studio. they are about to spend all their profits on litigation and then abandon the game just like the rest of their projects.

        100% agree. The game looked like dog ass from the get-go. My disdain for it only grew as all the rubes who spent $30 bucks on it tried to defend it and tell me it’s good. I knew it wasn’t and I know the hype would fade within a week.

      I think that’s probably Nintendo’s main goal with this lawsuit tbh. They know that they don’t actually have a leg to stand on with game mechanics (unless they want to argue that cute cartoon creatures or throwing things are proprietary game mechanics) But a smaller studio spending millions to defend themselves in a massive lawsuit that will probably drag on for years? It means they can’t spend all their money developing other games and will probably end up bankrupt (and no longer a threat to Nintendo).
