Exactly, it may not be pirating, but using a Nintendo game in a way that wasn’t intended in a public setting where they’ll make profits off of the tournament is obviously not a good idea. They have every right to protect THEIR brand by preventing this sort of activity.

It sucks, but it’s also not that hard to understand why it happens. Project+ is not an official Nintendo made product and promoting it to the public, such as in a tournament, falsely makes it seem like a Nintendo product. There are legitimate reasons to protect your companies IP.

Did they also disable shooting?

It’s always a shame when these projects get the C&D hammer dropped on them, but really...You’re making something with the IP of a major corporation that has a long, and well known history of shutting down projects like this. Would it really be that bad to just suck it up, and make it play the same, with different…

But then they wouldn’t get recognition, which is what drives a good many of these sort of developers.

I mean, they already have Ashe.

You don’t have to watch the show to be against a horrible person getting a slap on the wrist for abusing his power.

It’s not just the podcast stuff (although that’s what’s making the most headlines). He also took sketchy covid loans for his “consulting” business, was part of multiple lawsuits about creating a hostile and sexist work environment on Wheel of Fortune, oh yeah, and he asked his 2 female subordinates on his podcase if…

Dear Sony Picture Television,

Thanks for being in this comment section and reading my comment.

I am offering my application for host of Jeopardy! I’ll do it for half the cost of Mayim Bialik.

Here are my qualifications.

- Not a sexual predator
- Vaccinated
- So-So at reading notes off of a card

I’m in the minority, but I really liked the Japanese Famicom and Super Famicom designs more than the USA designs.

Can this guy just go away already?  I mean no Disrespect.  Literally.

It pisses me off more that he didn’t suffer legal consequences over it.  He livestreamed his own evidence of a crime he committed, and everyone just moved on.

He can be as evasive as he wants, but the second he files suit we’ll know whatever batshit theory he has behind his ban. Only question is if he’s dumb enough to continue to talk about ongoing litigation at that point (narrator: he is).

How does the city overlook a strip of street where cops are issuing 15 citations a day?  Clearly a safety issue, but a city revenue stream...

There is inspiration and building on top of the design of other works. Then there is straight up copying a design into your engine with a much larger team to make the exact same game but more polished.

This is cool, but even cooler is the Codec filter she’s using on her video feed.

“I really disagree with Sakurai on this. There is nothing I like more than when people put words in my mouth.”

If there’s an NDA and you agree to it, you should probably comply with the terms. If you don’t and it results in you being banned from using their product (if outlined in the terms), then that’s on you. What’s the big deal here?

Look, I'm as pro-game preservation / emulation as a force for good where the industry constantly fails as anyone. But the difference here is that he charged access to stolen property, and if I remember right from the last set of articles, made a couple hundred thousand dollars doing so. This is not the grey area that…

No... Just No... This was a bad rom site that charged for access. There is zero chance anything of value was lost. The effort this person put in was the bare minimum just to make some quick cash and they did it stupidly too, this is why they are being so badly burned by Nintendo on this. ANYTHING that was on this site…
