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

Wouldn't work. This has nothing to do with Japanese customers or Japanese laws. These aren't even in Japanese courts. It's US patents.Nintendo's patents, or the single one i should say, wouldn't hold up or even apply to palworld in America, they will in Japan.

I know you mean it well, but... Nintendo was always like this. Like the jokes about the CEO handing the African kid 300 million dollar lawsuit because he drew their console on paper is very old. Yet people still buy their shit.They opened the way for all the gaming handhelds, tons of options

Fuck Nintendo. Vote with your wallets and don't buy a Switch 2, get a Steam Deck or other similar portable gaming handheld.I really want to grab one of the new handhelds, seem so nice, I feel guilty almost playing games on my pc, when I could be using it for other stuff, playing on consoles fine so it might be time to transition to a linux handheld for the ocassional pc games. (Like it could be rendering for my other hobby with 3d, instead of the gpu going to games)

and bot detection for TF2Forget that, it'll have TF3.

Damnit... And I just got a steam deck on Monday.(You're good, steam deck 2 soon is very unlikely)

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 on PC / Steam Deck. The most likely reason Nintendo went so hard on Switch emulators last year is because they will be able to emulate Switch 2 games with little tweaking (probably just new keys / BIOS). They've confirmed it's backwards compatible with Switch games, which strongly supports this hypothesis.

I saw this video a while back that explained Nintendo's behaviour and strategy. It's a bit long and not a direct answer to your question but I found it pretty interesting. https://youtu.be/8apzrwv75i0This was really revealing. I didn’t know Palworld was now Sony’s. It basically now makes this Nintendo Vs Sony.

No. They have no proof. We know Valve's working on *something* but they *always* are and nobody knows what it isI think they are just baking a cake. Delicious moist cake. Source: It was revealed to me in a dream.

I also like doing hardware mods. It's fun to do.

Can someone explain the cultural difference between Japan and the rest of the US around copyright law?In the US, we have fair use laws. They basically don't. You can put McDonald's in your game because you're parodying it, or because it's part of the real world your work is based in.... They can't without expressed permission It's more nuanced than that, but that's it in a nutshell
