Nintendo applying for anti-Palworld patents in the US with a whopping 22 out of 23 rejected, but "they are fighting"

Steam deck 2 is just around the corner

Steam deck 2 is just around the cornerI hope so, I don’t even really need much more power, but I’ll be a day one buyer to support the platform. I’ll hand the steamdeck 1 down to my wife for stardew, if she wants it.

Steam deck 2 is just around the cornerDamnit... And I just got a steam deck on Monday.

They should force Gamefreak to make a better Pokemon game. That would teach Pal World a lesson.I mean, TPC can just kind of leave and make mobile games. Wait, that world be an improvement.

I'm going to buy a switch two, which they usually sell the hardware for close to cost. Then I'm gonna leave it in the box and wait until a mod chip comes out that lets me play every game for free.Just get an emulator for the steam deck

Steam deck 2 is just around the cornerWhat ?! Already a power boost / gen-gap to fill?

I would love to learn why this isn't completely stupid, if anyone has a way of explaining. We'd be down entire genres of games if developers didn't copy each other's homework.It is completely stupid. There is a reason the stereotypes about Japanese businessmen are what they are.

Steam deck 2 is just around the cornerI hear it's launching with HL3.

Obviously there will always be new cool games, but also, there's enough out there already (hell even just in my Steam library alone) to enjoy new content for the rest of several lifetimes. I don't need Nintendo at all.I don't either, but Switch is incredibly nice as a family console. Nintendo has a ton of games my kids like, we can bring it on road trips and they can switch off or play together, etc. So I have both. Most of my personal playtime is on my Steam Deck, my playtime with my kids is mostly on my Switch, with a fair amount on my PC. Screw Nintendo's legal dept, but they make a good product for families with young kids. Even my 4yo can figure out games like Kirby and Smash Bros (with help).

What ?! Already a power boost / gen-gap to fill?No. They have no proof. We know Valve's working on *something* but they *always* are and nobody knows what it is
-
And even then, the US patent office often will grant unenforceable patents, that then explode in the patent holder's faces the first time they try to use them. The granted one in this case is about "the process of aiming and capturing characters", which they either had to make so specific as to not apply to anybody else, or general enough that there are piles of prior art out there.Except anything they try to patent was already done by the GTA V Pokémon mod several years before any 3D Pokémon game

This post did not contain any content.I wonder if PocketPair (Palworld devs) could flip a giant middle finger to Japan's entire system by refunding all Japanese customers for the game and refusing to sell it in Japan anymore. Japan is the only country where Nintendo could get their way in a patent lawsuit, so fuck 'em

Steam deck 2 is just around the cornerDeck 2 probably won't come out before the next generation of chips at least

I hear it's launching with HL3.and bot detection for TF2

This post did not contain any content.First half of my life it was completely by accident I didn't own anything nintendo, but I'm glad the second half of my life I've actively avoided it, so not a single cent has gone to those greedy motherfuckers.
