I will never in my life purchase a single Nintendo product, I have been avoiding them like the plague. It is always 100% morally correct to pirate all of their games.

Time to start making more

If Nintendo was smart they would SELL their stuff on Steam. But they are Xenophobic and don’t want to play outside their sandbox. That plus Japanese-boomer is a whole new kind of boomer.

Pirating nintendo games feels so good. They literally banned people from posting videos with gameplay for a while, they make people pay to play old games on new consoles, they didnt even sell consoles officially in my country for years. Nintendo clearly doesnt want my money and Im happy to oblige.

Their music too, because WHY TF ARE THE ZELDA SOUNDTRACKS NOT ON STREAMING??? They don’t even sell physical copies of them to compensate, and they took down all the Youtube videos of songs too!

If they thought they could get away with it Nintendo would swoop down on me with a cease and desist for whistling Saria’s song in my backyard

It’s not because of xenophobia it’s because of capitalism. You buy a Nintendo console for their dope first party games then every third party game you buy they get a cut. For consoles like the switch that are immensely popular and sold lots of third party games they make bank.

Yesterday, the developers of Garry's Mod, the 2006 Source engine sandbox game, announced on Steam that due to a takedown request from Nintendo, they were removing all the Steam Workshop (i.e; user-generated) content that used Nintendo's IP. Some originally believed that this was a troll of some sort posing as Nintendo, but this screenshot tweet from Garry Newman, the titular developer of Garry's Mod, indicates that he's certain the takedown request is legitimate, and the probably-still-ongoing removal of Nintendo content on the workshop will continue.

Seriously though, how is the average person supposed to understand this post? Things involving recent events need context

Yea it’s kind of annoying :/

fmstrat ,

By looking it up? Op is already doing a service by posting, and many saw the news already.

All that being said, I also prefer more context, just wouldn’t complain about the person helping inform us.

airbussy ,

I wonder if people are just posting more Nintendo stuff to the workshop now out of spite or rebelliousness

That’s just going to fuck over the game dev… Nintendo will just shrug and keep lawyering as usual.

biscuitswalrus ,

The Nintendo lawyers are full time, this is just a Thursday to them. You’re keeping those lawyers employed by giving them work.

That’s how the gets taken offline completely, so hopefully people aren’t that stupid, but I’m doubting that.
