Agreed. I am personally getting sick of all of this crap. If you want to make a game about Peach saving Mario just do it! But don’t try to shove your ideals down the rest of our throats and make people feel bad for making something just because it does not meet your personal beliefs. I think people are reading way to…

Or it’s just a game and it’s designed for simplicity and this serves as a goal for the player to strive for. To save Mario’s love interest. It doesn’t need to be any deeper than that. Also while we’re on the point it’s just a game and people need to stop getting offended/upset over stupid shit.

but peach isn’t “at home cookin’”

she’s the ruler of a kingdom and a prime target for any villain.......................
and i would rather rescue a cute girl than a bearded old king, because girls are cute, not because they “should be cookin”

Agreed. Not to mention Suellentrop keeps asking that this kind of material not be forced on his daughter. Nobody is forcing anything. He downloaded a game with a well established history of a captured princess motif and is somehow appalled by it in Mario run.

This seems like a such a weird thing to get upset about. Browser has been kidnapping Peach since the 80s.

“Regardless of Nintendo’s legal rights, we do believe that they are destroying their fans’ hard work for no reason and at no gain,” they said.

Boo, why are these articles always written with a writer’s voice that feels supportive of illegal action? These folks need to quit stealing other people’s ideas and trying to sound self righteous about it. An ‘IP’ is an ‘Intellectual Property’, meaning ti has no physical form; it exists in one’s head, and is thus very…

Just want to remind folks that the base games are coming to virtual console, and alot of past CD’d hacks were based on games currently being sold through the VC

Kotaku is constantly playing a politicians game of promoting piracy while not promotiong piracy. I have no idea why they just don’t embrace it openly. /s

Yeah, thats actually a traditional Irish name. But you are probably right, we probably need more kids named after the bible. Better to name your kids after something that has brainwashed and killed more people then anything ever rather then your heritage.

No, if you’re defending this “tool”, then you’re definitely defending theft because that’s what it’s being used for most of the time. It’s not like your coat hanger analogy. It’s more like if someone invented a key that works with any car on the planet and marketed it as a tool to let anyone drive their own car even…

I think it’s much more a sense of entitlement then delusion.

Yeah, “fuck Nintendo” for trying to prevent people from stealing its games. And the guy knows his program is legally questionable, but the problem is with the law, not him.

Yes it is. The guy who made the exploit that allows people to steal games, and the people doing the stealing, that’s the evil. Nintendo is extremely thick-headed and stubborn when it comes to online consumer behavior, but it’s not the one stealing.

“Why shouldn’t people be allowed to download their games from the eshop after they purchased them legit?”

Fuck TheCruel, not Nintendo

Shutting down a tool that everyone knows is used to steal their content = “lawyers are out of control.” Uh, no.

You’re really dumb.

There’s a 0% chance he wasn’t completely aware what his tool would actually be used for. This is just him unconvincingly covering his own ass.

Good.
