Comment on Amid Palworld Lawsuit, Nintendo Patents a System for Summoning a Character

Does anyone have a patent on making animals fight each other?
How is Pokémon still a thing anyway? Imaginary dogfighting is still fucked up.

Classic Lemmy moment. There’s no need to take fiction seriously as if carries onto real life. Let people enjoy things.

Yeah I wasn’t being serious but based on the downvotes I don’t think Lemmy got that.
My intent was actually to fuck over Nintendo with a patent about making your pets fight each other the way they keep gobbling up patents for shit that already exists.

You made a comment that is typically meant with complete seriousness without any indication you were joking. PETA, for example, has an entire anti-Pokemon campaign built on the premise that Pokemon is animal cruelty.

Yeah. I can see it wasn’t clear and then I started trolling people who yelled at me which didn’t help my case.
I should have been more clear, that I was trying to call out the hypocrisy of Nintendo’s lawsuit with Palworld (Pokémon with guns) when their own game could be considered just as immoral by some.
I’m annoyed at companies that would rather sue than compete. Palworld is a different game with different ideas.
It’s on me for not being clear!

Imaginary murder is also fucked up, but shooter games are still pretty fun. Should we ban all non-educational books and media that portay violence? Cartoon violence nonetheless…

You’re not wrong.
But something just feels more wrong about Dog Fighting Simulator 2025 to me.

Probably because you’re calling it dog fighter simulator over and over

Time to go take a homeless guys dog

I’m actually a big supporter of giving homeless people help to care for their pets. A pets love is unconditional and everyone deserves that feeling.
