>>743996294Nintendo tried to patent catching a Pokémon with a pokeball by selecting the ball from a menu or something silly. Copyright office used a fan pokemon mod that had this exact idea before they did as a reason why its not original. Pokemon complained that a mod isnt a real game and infringed on their IP so it doesnt count. Copyright office said fuck off, we dont care about if it infringed, it proves you didnt come up with the idea, and that if Nintendo wanted to argue technicality, their language was too specific (referring to Pikachu, pokeballs, and so on). Its still professionally stated but for a Japanese government office it speaks volumes about how pissed off they are Nintendo is trying every single angle to get a hold on the genre while everyone knows similar games have always existed.

>>743995793Sunk cost fallacy. The best thing they can do is just stop with the lawsuits and giving Palworld attention and just focus on their own games, but they'll do anything other than that.I bought Palworld entirely because Nintendo was throwing such a shitfit about it. I had absolutely zero interest before all this started.

>>743995793they could just....let go?hell, im sure pocketpair would port palworld to the switch 2 if they asked, bury that hatchet for good
Honestly at this point the smart business thing to do is probably port Palworld over the to the Switch 2.But Nintendo is clearly going to be too salty for that.
>>743997872How are tendies handling the current events?
>>743996245Gale of Darkness.
What's the best game where you select an item from your inventory to capture a creature?
>>743996714You're leaving out the part where nintendo complained that they were referring to the stuff in the fangame by name and insisted the patent office call it "the character infringing on ash", "the character infringing on pikachu", "the character infringing on the pokeball", and so on. The patent office responded that, no, that is stupid and they will not be doing that.
>>743997257>for your shareholdersExecutives aren't charity. They do it for themselves mainly. As they are usually also shareholders it just so happens that the public has an opportunity to align their interests with the executives of any given public company. Unfortunately executives still have plenty of other options of compensating themeselves and/or fucking over shareholders by chasing short term over long term gains.

Nintendo should honestly just drop the case right now or risk further exposing how petty and autistic they are when things aren't going their way
I don't like patents in video games, but what I dislike more is developers who straight up copy from other developers. There's a reason why Nintendo never went after Genshin Impact even though it's got a lot of similarities to Breath of the Wild. Palworld deserves to burn, trash soulless game born out of spite and not out of creativity.
>>743999862? Palworld plays nothing like pokemon outside of the monster catching itself and it's hardly the only game where you can do that. There are some very similar designs but that isn't what they went to court over so not really a valid point here
>>743999862>There's a reason why Nintendo never went after Genshin ImpactAnd the sole reason is because mihoyo is too big and would wipe their ass with a lawsuit.Nintendo thought they could bully Palworld into submission and make an example out of them. I'm just happy how hard it backfired for them.
>>744000182That's not what I meant at all, they clearly ripped designs off Pokemon then ripped off everything else from ARK. It's a soulless cash grab of a game rather than trying to be something original, it even advertised itself as 'Pokemon with guns' instead of trying to stand on it's own feet. There's plenty of other quality indie developers out there that don't blatantly rip off other games that are better to support.
>>743999862>capeslop poster suddenly cares about creativity
>>743995793Nintendo should just make games.
>>743996714Correct me if I'm wrong, but hyper specific patent hurts nobody right?I mean, if nintendo wants to patent "catching pokemon with a pokeball" whats the issue? You could still make a game where you throw normal balls at monsters
>>744000906they werent hyperspecific at all, anon
>>743995793>Nintendo wasted more money in this lawsuit than on Pokémon ZA.Grim...
>>744001118kek this can't be real
>>743998307One time I steel pokemon girl on myspace?
>>743999862Craftopia is a near exact replica of BotW and nobody batted an eye.Palworld has far less similarities but that's the one that gets attacked. Not because they stole anything like retards like (You) claim, but because Nintendo was afraid of having actual competition against their fattest cash cow. Notice how the lawsuit only happened once Pocketpair partnered with Sony to produce merchandise.
>>743995793Everyone was saying Nintendo owned the judges in Japan but it seems the tables have turned now
>>744000906What they wanted was "Catch a monster/creature with a sphere like object"
>>743996149This but software in general
>>744001609I mean, in a way that's literally from pokemon, other monster catching games from that time, like digimon or idk, monster rancher, had their own ways of catching/taming them.
>>744001769its also not specific at all and blatant patent trolling
>>743996149Patents in general are very outmoded and countries haven't been doing their due diligence, because the resulting court cases give companies in their own country more soft power due to international lawsuits. Japan in particular is shit, because they have massive deference to their own corporations, even in cases with widespread mercury and radiation poisoning resulting from criminal negligence.>>743996842The most ardent "IP" trolls are usually the worst offenders. Nintendo constantly infringes on copyright and just relies on Japanese deference to paper over it. DK Jr. was a mod of software that they didn't own the rights to.>>743999862Copying happens constantly and it's what promotes the growth of the industry. >>744000906"Hyper specific patents" usually still get used incredibly broadly and are rarely specific. It's not about winning or losing with patent trolls, it's about draining money from the competition or hoping that the company just decides that paying you off will cost less than actually contesting your bullshit. it is legal terrorism.
>>743996245Channel>>743996149>patents should be illegalftfy
>>743999360Because its funny, fuck you and cry about it
>>744000906The problem is not the hyper specific patent actually giving any leverage. That "patent" is basically already included in the Pokemon™ trademark in one way or another making copying it to that extend a copyright infringement anyway. So it kinda does nothing here.The problem is that everyone involved can already fucking smell Shittendos scheme here and the bazillingion lawsuits that going to follow trying to burry their competition in paperwork and legal fees no matter if they win or not the second they get any form of access point to open such cases. Naturally not even japanese government drones want to deal with that petty shit, essentially chipping away at that one rival for 0,001% of their resources every month, burning millions easily in the tripple digits of taxpayer money in government clerk working hours. They also probably fear that Nintendo will instantly start to argue that this patent was admitted and why the twenty other ones that are exactly as retarded wont clogging the system even more. Capitalism wise, Japan is a fucking hellhole of might makes right usually and rampant exploitation of the workforce. But the one thing they got going for themself is this awareness that they just cant burn endless amounts of taxpayer money on the whims of billion dollar companies because that would be shamefur dispray. They are surely fed up with nintendos shit in general.
>>743999862>anon lies through seething tears as he watches his beloved pokemon company lose a single dollar out of their billions
>>743995793They've taken quite a bruise after Palworld.
>>743995793It’s not true.The patents that are part of the lawsuit were granted to Nintendo 4 years ago.You can’t sue someone for patents you don’t own. I know it’s hard, but try using your head a little.No, Nintendo filing to get more patents like they have been doing for the past 40 years has nothing to do with the lawsuit that’s about a couple of patents from 4 years ago. Nintendo will continue acquiring patents long after the lawsuit is over.No, not granting patents immediately is normal. You file for patents, get denied, you fix it and file again until the office is happy with it. That’s how filing for patents works. That’s the patent office’s job.How about you go play a game instead of spamming your inane drivel?
>>744002413What the hell is wrong with tendies?
>>744001249Met a gross
>>744002664>No, not granting patents immediately is normal.It's not normal to be directly told by the patent office that you're being knowingly vexatious.
>>744000334>Nintendo thought they could bully Palworld into submission and make an example out of them.>Removed the patented mechanics from the game>Removed stolen designs from the gameSo Nintendo already won?
>>744002824You should stop watching Asmongold.
>>744002849Yeah, we're winning so hard nintendobros hahahahah
winds and waves will have guns and sex now because of this
Funny how since Iwata died, Nintendo releases more lawsuits than video games.
>>744002664>Nintendo being absolutely delusional is completely normallol ok
>>744002849>So Nintendo already won?They won because they never WANTED to win.Tendiebros we can't stop winning
>Nintendo does nothing with pokemon>somebody else ventures in the territory of ideas of what pokemon could do or could be, shit Nintendo will never do due to laziness>AIEEEEEEE STOP THATWhat a bunch of whiny old farts. If they want money, make another goddamn pokemon movie.
Why doesn't Nintendo just buy Palworld?

>>744002824It is if you're being vexatious.

nintendo cultist hereama
>>744004017Uhhhh *sniffles* I-I've sween you b-before!
>>744004017you could just drop the aggro and enjoy the game with us
>>743997720The shareholders are panicking when they saw their Nintendo stock drop by 1% so they pressured them to sue Palworld.
it's so pathetic they're fixated on the capture mechanism because thats the only thing they have a chance on claiming for themselves. wizardry 4, megaten and makai toushi saga laid the groundwork for monster taming games and pokemon had no problem copying their shit.
>>744004086Nintendo was being petty and wanted to monopolize creature catching genre with shitty games like Z-A
>doesn't get sued by NintendoFUCK YOU HYPOCRITES, it's on your own goddamn system!
>>743997720If Gamefreak weren't some of the worst developers on the face of the planet, that might be an option. Unfortunately, they are, so Nintendo is left with no choice but to run interference for them forever.
>>744004048How do you feel about Palworld?
>>744004237i feel good knowing that it will be forgotten in a year
>>743999862tendies are such fucking baboons
>>744004282Didn't you say that last year?
GRANT NINTY YOUR POWERAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!
>>744004307i didn't even know it existed until last week
Nintendo is afraid of asmon streaming the game and making popular youtube videos of it. The popularity will spread and multiply.
>>744004282>hits nearly a million concurrent users on Steam over two years after initial release>Pocketpair already has the silver bullet of game designs queued up in the chamber (comfy farming/life sim)>along with merchandiseSure thing tendie, whatever makes you feel good.
>>744004282Yeah about that. In the next year Pocket Pair is releasing a Mobile game, A farm sim and a VN and they just released a card game so Tendies are going to be seething about Palworld for years to come
>>743995793I remember when Harry Potter was at its peak and every country had their own Not-Harry Potter books. Hell, japs themselves currently doing their own fanfiction anime copy-past, with many wizard schools appearing in the different series in the past years.
>>744004465and how many are playing now?how many will be playing a month from now?how many will be playing a year from now?you are doomed, it's obvious
>>744004516I found out there are Harry Potter ripoff movies that other day.
>>743996245Stadium is the only one worth a damn. The rest are absolute shit. Yes that includes Colosseum and XD, both of which are praised by retards who haven't actually played them.
>>744004580the stuff with black snape is actually real
>>744004519606,738~ 235,000~ 105,000 unless they cook something moreAAA Games would kill for that kind of retention these days
>>744002413>Everytime I play Palworld, a pokétroon wants to dieBooting the game once again right now.
>>743995793Lah mao.It's the beginning of the end for the jews who put in their puppet, Shuntaro Furukawa. Fuck, it's even over for him too lmao.
>>744004519>Tendie finds the concept of finishing a game and moving on to other games to be alien and confusing.
nintendo's days are numberedpalworld WON
>>743995793"Patent Trolling" and "Patent Harassment" are very real and present because legalism is rock solid and the best defense against people trying to use a "thought machine" without consent. These are the same people who would burn libraries.
>>743995793Funny how Nintendo goes around suing everyone when Pokemon is a rip off of Shin Megami Tensei.
>>743996245pokemon snap
>>743996842>get a dose of success because competition is retarded and shitting the bed>start acting smug
>>743996842They're currently being run by a former suit from the Pokémon Company, so it tracks that they're going to be extra insecure over Pokémon during his tenure. Though being this aggressive yet uncharacteristically desperate and ill-informed shows that they do indeed see Palworld and other standalone monster-catching games as a threat (not necessarily just as one-time successes but for the domino effect that can yield). Also shows that they know the Pokémon games are the most important part of the IP's success despite merchandise making more money, since the games are where most content for merchandise comes from. I can't believe I need to explain that, but that's what happens when people have become so collectively hyperfocused on just discussing raw revenue/unit sales figures alone.
>>743997872>>743999704at this point i genuinely believe nintendo intentionally avoids support for good third party titles because it'll make their exclusive line up look like SHIT in comparisonnotice how all third party slop in directs is always obscure farming or jrpg shit that never sells as much as any first party
>>744004519i finished the gameim not gonna keep playing just to spite you, youre not that importantmaybe ill do another playthrough soon, but for now, i am content
>>743999862nintendo didn't go for genshin because it's a chinese game, so they can't sue without getting raped by ccplet's be honest for once lol
>>744000786Considering the quality of the games they're better as a lawyer firm
>>744001118reminder that za was the most dogshit grindy game with hardly any variety of gameplayand they even sold a $30 dlc that's just more of the same grindeven the internal document leaks revealed they don't plan to make big dlcs anymore (like sv's dlcs)absolute state of poopmon
if palworld is already generating so much seethe from rabid dogs, i wonder how they'll handle roco kingdom or dokevroco kingdom is now one of the biggest and best performing games in china alone, and it isn't even a gachait could likely become even bigger than genshin once they release it for global players
>>744004519when will nintendo post active player counts for all pokemon games?
>>744004282>>744004519how many people are still playing pokemon diamond and pearl today? black & white? what a retarded argument. these are single player games we're talking about not GaaSslop forevergamesfucking retards can't even metricsfag correctly
>>744001118This is separate on lawsuit you dum dum
>>743995793based. fuck nintendo and fuck tendies
>>743996939You don't speak for us.
>>744006152this is why more and more developers are moving towards daily login formula nowfaggots weaponizing this disingenuous argument that a game has flopped because it "lost" most of its playerbase (because the game was a once-and-done single player game) is the reason some developers actively choose the daily login formulathat's why tendies absolutely hate genshin because it has millions of players logging in daily and makes millions of $$$ every month
>>744006152I am. I play all the games once a year.
>>743999360Why are you pretending to belong here?
Palworld should hurry up and make a movie and anime before Nintendo can think up their next lawsuit.
>>743995793nintendo's patents were fucking stupid from the beginning anyway
>>743996149>software patents should be illegalOYYYYYY VEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY ANTI-SEMITE
>>744006436nintendo won't like thisthey invented movies and anime don't you know
>>744006152they let you import pokemons from previous games to next. there are people with technically 30 year old pokemons. thats why pokecultists are so rabid.
>>744006436pissworld will eventually get caught up, nintendo is just waiting for them to get fat enough to harvest
>>743996842Pokemon is a cash cow and they don't want to lose control of the "monster trainer" game genre to other developers. They have been getting away with cranking out dogshit low-effort Pokeslop for decades now and raking in billions, they don't want that gravy train to end, they won't allow any other developer to ever do anything remotely similar to Pokemon.
>>744004017>nintendo has more lawsuits than gamesfind that hard to believe, this palworld lawsuit has been going on for like 3-4 years all by itself. they've released more than 1 game in that time.
>>7440065492 years, anon
>>744006481Pokémon isn't going to die when the millennials start dying off en masse, but holy hell is the IP going to be hurt.
>>744006567okay, 2 years. they released 2 new games this month, so i'd still wager they release more games than they do lawsuits.
>>743996149>>744001969based
why are they like this?
>>744006797they are literal cultists
It's over, bros... make sure you download your Jade Cocoon roms now before Nintendo cements their patent and scours them from the internet...
>>744006797you tell me, wojak faggot
>>743999862Pocketpair is well within their rights to have released Palworld. However, there's a serious chink bootleg stink about it that it will never shake off.
>>743999862Copying each other is how art evolve and change overtime. One guy has a good idea, other guys saw the idea, like it but want to add their own spin or small modification to it. Of course there will be cheap cashgrap copies but more often than not, the media that actually good would remain while the cheap cashgrap all die out.
Nintendo and GF could stop living in fear if they actually try to release a good game with effort.
>>744007194>there's a serious chink bootleg stink about itI mean, that's just Pocketpair's entire style. Did they ever release their hollow knight clone game?
>>744006516>They have been getting away with cranking out dogshit low-effort Pokeslop for decades nowNewest pokémon games finally having PS3-tier water is probably the biggest sign of how panicked they are.I expected everything else to still be as ugly & buggy as usual, but it's clear they are desperate to make their shit not look like N64 bootlegs anymore.
>>743999602>>744002018>>744006416Its manipulative journalism. Same as using scary headlines to instill fear, rather than following ethical reporting guidelines.And before you go full ungabunga us vs them, I only game on PC

>>744007609>but it's clear they are desperate to make their shit not look like N64 bootlegs anymore.Utter nonsense. Their latest game still looks like SHIT and has joke tier textures and draw distances.They're protective because they want to continue shitting out trash with no competition. The funny thing being that they really don't even have to try. If Sword and Shield could outsell every other pokemon game combined then the sky is the fucking limit.
>>744007906Funny, the TV series is precisely what made my kid self stay the hell away from the franchise until well into adulthood when I decided on a whim to actually try the games for myself.Palworld is a notably different experience from both of those.
>>744007906another "gamefreak will get better! trust!" copermost of pokemon's earnings comes from merch, not the games. the games are little more than advertisements

>>743995793 (OP)what's the best 2D Pokémon
how is patenting game mechanics even a thing?It's like patenting scenes in a movie>uh, actually you can't do a scene a man hugs his wife, because I have the patent on that.Fuck off, all right. You can legally squat on "IPs" like a bunch of goblins if you want, but you're not having abstract concepts. You cannot have the soul rights to a game where someone throws a ball at a creature.Corporations needs to be slapped down when they pull things like this. It sets such a bad precedent.
so paltrannies ran out of content in their big 1.0 release to talk about so they're back to making shitpost threads about pokemon and nintendo again?
>>744008458>>best 2D PokémonObjectively: those two animations by Dimwittdog and that one by Smugbluefaun.>not video gamesIf whatever GF make is considered vidya, so are those.
>>743996245XD: Gale of Darkness.
>>744006797Insecurity.Mario fans don't get angry at other platformers because they know their games are good.Souls fans don't get angry at other Souls-like games because they know their games are good.Pokéfags know GF input the bare minimum for a monster tamer game.
>>744006797the funny thing is Palworld isn't even similar to Pokemon.
>>744008520>how is patenting game mechanics even a thing?1) Patent offices don't give a shit, they are just here to pocket the registration fee2) Judges are retarded boomers or normies, don't give a flying fuck about vidya and at best simply refuse to understand anything about it, at worst actively enjoy enshittening the industry3) Corpo love 1&2 as it mean winning a legal battle is at 99.9% just a matter of out-budgeting the competitionEveryone except the consumer is happy with the situation.

>>744002849>Removed stolen designs from the gameAnd those are....?Remember, nint0ddler, if that were true, they would have get sued over them, but the only "proof" you have is some redesings of some pals.
>>744008526
>>744008561Exactly. Palworld's true sin in their eyes was not ripping off Pokemon, but succeeding (not that they'll ever admit it). Temtem and other clones have always been fine because they were never successful.Also Mario kids did seethe back in early 90s, but exclusively at Sonic because that was the only successful platformer franchise. Coincidentally they immediately stopped when Sega started shitting the bed.
>>743995793patents you say?
>>744009210nintendo confirmed to be worse than disney holy shit
>>744008902I always loved Mario and Sonic equally. I almost don't believe the "rivalry" was real . If you like one well made platformer, why would you not like another well made platformer?Seems like the whole console war phenomena was more of an American thing though.
>>744009417>why would you not like another well made platformer?Platform tribalism. I also liked sonic games, even tho I had the SNES back in the day.Basically it was a form of cope for the option you chose back then, since you couldnt buy everygame on existence, much less every platform, so you should belittle the competition to make your choice better.
I mean let's be honest here, as much as I love the game Palworld is very clearly a chinese carbon copy of Pokemon, as china loves to do.That being said it was inevitable, and a good thing, that Palworld would get as successful as it is. Nintendo have been getting way too comfortable using anything they could in the legal system to shut down any kind of competition regardless of the franchise, this is just not healthy in a free market and is actually fucking annoying when you think about it.
>>744005790They see Palworld as threatening exactly because it could take a chunk out of their merchandise sells. See how Palworld is releasing a TCG soon, something Temtem and other Pokémon-likes never did. They fear that one day parents will buy their kids a Chillet plush instead of a Pikachu one
>>743996591>my dear redditorreddit af
>>744009612At this stage, I wonder why they don´t try to patent making plushies... Better not give them ideas..
>>743996149yeah, it's ridiculous that nobody else can do minigames during a loading screen or enemy AI that learnes from previous encounters with you other than the first companies that did it
>>743995793Knew this was coming. Nintendo could just create a better pokemon product, but I've never seen them ever reach beyond absolute mediocrity. I have never even played a single pokemon game. I'd like to, but I'm not playing that dumb Gameboy shit or it's exact replica + new comic and cell shading graphics. It's the same game still. Make a better one, Nintendo or I'll go play pal world when you lose.

>>744004282lol, lmao
>>744002413I do hope that this individual (if serious) is no longer among the living, but.>People just love that it hurts a big companyThat was never the point, retard (and it never hurt nintendo, you double retard). What people love seeing is dickish actions backfire.

>>744009563I mostly had Nintendo systems, and I was always thrilled at any opportunity to play Sega games. I bought Sonic Advance day 1. it was like cool I get to play Sonic without having to go over to someone's house who happens to still own a Megadrive.

>>743996714>Copyright office used a fan pokemon mod that had this exact idea before they did as a reason why its not original.im not defending nintendo, but...how can a fanmade pokemon mod be the first to have the idea if that mechanic was already in the first pokemon game?
The series peaked here, and it's been downhill ever since.
>>744011838
>>743997282Same. My wife played that crap and I said at the time the Palworld looked stupid.After the Nintendo bullshit I was so annoyed anyone would have to fucking gall to patent troll like that I finally gave in and played palworld with her.Now ive spend hundered of hours and my life is gone. I also bought 2 more copies for my children so they can play to. Thx nintendo and tendies. you sold me an awesome game.
Reminder that Phil has a wife, a house and he had sex with multiple different women, not including prostitutes Meanwhile most detractors are broke virgins who will get droned to death in ww3 before ever seeing a vagina irl, while Phil is streaming elden ring 2 or something
>>744011838THIS
>>744012228Probably some variant like clicking on the balls while in the inventory menu immediately throw it.Jap companies have a weird obsession with patenting *everything*, including 6 gorillons variants of the same basic idea.
>>743996714>Patent issue>Nintendo: but what about copyright? What the fuck were they actually thinking?
>>744010752Sexy ass Cremis...
>>744014682>a decadeMake it two.
>>744008432Stop replying to curry bots
>>744002413I wonder how many of these idiots realize that Palworld has totally different core gameplay from Pokemon
I don't even like Palworld, and even I'll admit Nintendo giving it a boost in attention via the lawsuit was the worst thing it could do. That said, it still doesn't dent them (Nintendo) or the Pokemon franchise much or at all performance wise. Shit still sells pretty well and to a primarily general audience, whilst Palworld is still stuck at that "weird niche audience" sort of trajectory that other series like Digimon unfortunately got relegated to by stupid Bamco execs, for the most part.
>>743997282Yep. I wasn't even going to buy the game because I thought it was slop but when I saw Nintendo throwing a bitch fit I was like you know what, fuck em. I went to Steam and bought it for 30 bucks and I actually liked the game even with it's faults. I should go back and play 1.0.
>>744006484any day now

>>744016845Is this ironic or unironic? I can't tell anymore.
>>744016925Ironic. The original was #GamefreakLied when they first cut the dex.
>>744001118It just gets worse
>>744016909It's Colosseum you retarded muttmerican
>>744016952I can totally see their reasoning. Think about it, even if you give that particular dev team 10x the budget, do you think anything would actually improve?
>>744017040Hire better devs
>>744017021either way that's the best Pokemon will ever get in 3D, Game Freak is dogshit
>>744016952insane that it's actually trueWTF
i can't wait for roco kingdom to release alreadyactually gonna cause chimpouts bigger than genshin or palworld lol
>>744001118It's crazy to me how much money pokemon makes yet they put a pennies back into the series that made them rich by having tiny shoestring budgets. Which in the last few games has only made the games look, run, and play worse and worse.
>>744008247If you fuck up the ads, people will stop buying merch
>>744017307not even chinese will play this shit, get real.
>>744000906Anon they wanted to patent the act of throwing a spherical ball in general, a separate patent from the one where you throw a ball to capture a creatureThey straight up wanted to patent grenades in all vidya
>>744002413This cannot be real
>>743995793>keep showing up to the patent office going "erm, ackshually" and trying to tell everyone how to do their jobs
>>744017896You have to remember what kind of fanbase tendies are.
>>744002413I can 100% believe this autist, seeing the other autist lose their absolute shit over Palworld on social Media, this game has mind broken them unlike any other game.
>>744017948These people need to be contained in obscure forums where light never shines.Not public social media.
>>744017816it's already making millions every month in china alone
>>744002413The reality is Pokemon/Nintendo just have to make the effort.Their combat IS better. Palworld is Gacha shit combat on a good day. The recipe is there they just need to use the ingredients. Make a beautiful open world that feels alive with Pokemon. Add in Pokopia elements. It's really that simple.They won't do it.
>>744018031most tendies used to be contained on tumblr
>>744002413>modern pokemon fan complaining about lack of creativity, talent and innovationthis has to be a troll
>>743998307>one time, I Bond Burgered girl on myspace??????
>>744018160Fucking This, Tumblr was containing all of these fucking faggots, the second that died they all infected every other space in droves, especially Twitter
>>744017307It's chinese software, so I'm guessing it's a server-side single player game with some profoundly horrible monetiztion.
>>744018158>Their combat IS better.Lmfao
>>744000906>Correct me if I'm wrong, but hyper specific patent hurts nobody right?Wrong. Patent trolling is a thing for a reason. They wouldn't bother going through all that trouble if it was just for a very specific thing they weren't expecting to capitalize on.
>>744018251only monetization is some overdesigned clothes that can later be purchased with the freebie coin currency (like the money you can easily earn in pokemon games or rupees from botw)and it has multiplayer co-op elements just like pokemon, with gameplay features similar to legends arceus
>>744018309Obviously I am talking about the mainline combat you disingenuous cucklet.
>>744002413Totally not a cult!
>>743996245Slay the Spire.
>>744018158>pokemon>effortnone required. on their next game, they could literally charge people in blowjobs rather than money without improving anything, and it would still be a huge success. that's how big pokemon is. it would take a lot more than palworld to make them lift a finger.
>>744018158>>744018690Pokemon's turn-based strategy combat, while better than what Palworld's doing, does not mesh that well with the rest of the formula (exploration + survival + base-building). Pokemon would have to come up with something distinctly different.
>>744018158They deliberately don't require players to engage with the combat system to beat it because they, apparently, still put parent complaints about Mt. Coronet being too difficult at the forefront of development. It's not incompetence, it's a choice.
Ermmm but the Switch 2 is only $500 while the other consoles are $800 so Nintendo is actually the good guy, please stop bullying them, they're my best friend :(
>>744012228The mechanic isn't the aesthetic idea of a creature-containing ball- that would fall under copyright. It's about applying those ideas to realtime gameplay that involves aiming at mobs that exist in 3D space.
>>743998307age of wonders 3 or aow shadow magic
At this point Nintendo can retire Pokemon games and just focus on the merch. I doubt anyone would care.
>>744018309Lmfao not THIS looks like Gacha shit combat, the absolute bottom of the barrel Gacha combat, it even has the dogshit cluttered gacha UI
>>744018690the turn based combat is shit too pokefag
>>744019623This kek, the merch side carries the entire series, Pokemon games could die in a fire and it wouldn't even phase the company, might as well, the games will never be good as long as Game Freak and for some reason ILCA are still making them
>>743999862https://ultra.fandom.com/wiki/Capsule_Kaiju Nintendo stole their entire concept from Ultraman and want to claim it like it's theirs to even claim Stop being a faggot like Nintendo

>>743995793>what if we were as petty and money hungry as jews>but also unfathomably autistic gooks>enter Nintendo
I am a little late and can't believe I have to regurgitate this info but here's the lowdown on what's going on as someone in the patent industry. >patents are sometimes encouraged to be broad as possible to gain proper monopoly over the idea>There's nothing wrong with being hyper specific though, many have done just that too>Nintendo filed a patent that seemed to be specific but was super broad in WRITING>They wanted the mechanic of ANY capture device to be thrown in their claim, not just a ball and showed a ball as an example>Shenanigans ensued and this shit fest startedIf they were hyper specific and claimed throwable balls, that would've been enough. They bit off more than they can chew and ended up in this mess. Also a few things>Patent examiners, working for the gov, can strike down or accept any application and are prone to being fucking stupid and allowing things that shouldn't have been able to be patented (Amazon patent for basic photography) or things that should (which haven't been made before)>Whether America or Japan, they enjoy a degree of immunity as gov workers and aren't responsible to find flaws or cases where a patent shouldn't or should be passedThe recent debacle in Japan is still up to appeal because the examiner has to understand the basic mechanism by playing the damn game or knowing how to create that mechanic in a isolated environment but because he saw footage of it being used he can deny it because he's a wagie employee for the gov. Nintendo wrapped up the case for a copyright violation which is dealt with a different team and while they are right that it's illegal, they shouldn't have brought it up with the patent examiner since it's a patent division of the JTPO.

>>744018158>Turn based rpg is better gameplayLook, I might be 3 years short of having been a boomer, but lol. Lmao even
>>744018309I preferred Parasite Eve 1's take on this sort of battle system for a reason...
>>744002413>Streamers are the elites of this world
>>744021101>the examiner has to understand the basic mechanism by playing the damn game or knowing how to create that mechanic in a isolated environment but because he saw footage of it being used he can deny it because he's a wagie employee for the govOne of the points the examiner made is that the entire patent filing is made up of pictures of how the patent is suppose to work anyway so it doesn't matter if they can't play it. The point is the idea Nintendo is patenting is already out there in the ether. You don't know what the fuck you are talking about.
>>744021934Tbh this is really how the majority of normalfags see the world.
>>744021101Nobody cares we just want to laugh at Nintendo, kill yourself patent retard
>>744019857That's because you suck at the game retard.Post ELO.
>>744022067Which is why I can't wait to die.I don't want to see how much more retarded we're going to get.
>>743995793>How can Nintendo win this patent /v/?Late response but its basically over. One of the only responses Nintendo brought up to Pockets Pair's defense of Prior Art was NO NO YOU CAN'T USE MODS. The fact the patent office used a fan game probably means the judge isn't going to buy that response and rule in favor of Pocket Pair. But the more interesting thing is the examiner clearly has had enough of Nintendo's nonsense and I'm sure the entire system wants Nintendo to piss off. The biggest outcome will be that not only does Pocket pair win, but Nintendo will have to pay damages for bringing a bullshit case and wasting everyone time.The fall out will probably be Furakawa wanting to "spend time with his family". Jim Ryan got the boot after Sony failed to stop the ABK merger. Nintendo is also in rougher shape than Sony was as they aren't making anywhere near the money they did with the Switch and the price hikes are going to fuck them come Christmas like they have in Japan
>>744018309this.....looks really shit
>>744019623>>744019946no games to keep soillenial nintendo adults hooked and advertise merch = no salesretards
>>744006797Why do Palworldfags think Palworld is the only other monster catcher that exists?
>>744018309>Knock Offgets me everytime
>>744022356>Nintendo will have to pay damages for bringing a bullshit case and wasting everyone time.Goddamn, I fucking wish.The only thing worse than patent jewry is trademark jewry (e.g. comcast taking down comcastsucks.com with bullshit reasons such as "consumers could mistake it for the real thing")
>>744022480That's why they can just sell them Pokemon cards, which again carry the franchise waaaay more than the games do
>>744022519Please name two other monster catchers that Nintendo has taken to court
>>743997282Same. I figured, if they're losing their minds over it, then they must see it as a threat. If they see it as a threat, then it's probably doing something right.
>>744023791So the problem isn't that other monster catchers exist? That's not what Palworldfags say.
Palworld Won
>>744018158>Their combat IS betterAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>744022356two more weeks until nintendo dies and puts their games on steam bro, this time for sure
>>744025121>still samefaggingNot an argument.
>>744025261We don´t need steam to play nintendo games...don´t you remember?
>>744025527>This level of copeNta, but ZA was the closest thing to improved combat we're every gonna get with Pokémon, and even that was a clunky mess
>>744018158>>744018690>Their combat IS better>I-I was talking about the m-mainline games, ignore ZA!Lmao Pokemon's mainline combat is braindead even for a RPG intended for kiddos.
>>744018158There's something pretty satisfying about managing aggro and recalling pals the moment before an attack that would have decimated them hits, but it's definitely nothing special. It's easy to cheese out powerful foes and fighting pals yourself mostly comes down to holding left click for melee or pretty generic TPS stuff for guns. Still better than what you find in the actual pokemon games, but definitely not as engaging as the hyper granular strategy game of competitive pokemon
>>744025787Post your gold symbols.
What did Pokemon do to you guys lol

>>744027280Lets see....NINTENDO, instead of not being a lazy fuck, decided to eliminate it´s competition with patent warfare.NINTENDO, in this battle, tried to claim that they even had patents like "summoning creatures to fight for you", "using creatures as mounts" and shit like thatNo one gives a FUCK about pokemon, besides nintendodrones. The problem here is NINTENDO and it´s infinite greed.Why the word "nin ten dro nes" makes a post being detected as spam?
>>744027280nothing, i still enjoy playing some older pokemon titles from time to timenintendo melting down about palworld is just really funny, and i don't even like palworld. open world/survival/crafting/base building stuff just isn't fun to me.
>>744027896Shadow of Mordor nemesis system. Funny enough it's been so long that I bet all the original programmers left and the jeets at EB can't remake it, making it lost technology
