    Would be cool if Nintendo just made games instead of being a patent troll that rereleases the same 10 games over and over again.

    I don’t see why anyone buys their shit except for nostalgia at this point.

    I really hope that Pocketpair wins their case against Nintendo. It’s pretty ridiculous that game mechanics as generic as using a creature for a glider are somehow able to be patented by Nintendo.

    Next Nintendo is going to patent riding horses in video games. Then sleeping to skip time. The concept of food. Light. Dark. And polygons.
