  "There's no ethical consumption" doesn't mean prostrating yourself at the altar of an international company that sends lawyers to people's houses for writing emulators, lmao. Play your video games, but fawning over Nintendo Directs like they're your Sunday morning sermon is weird.

    Being mildly excited for new announcements = licking a company's boots and "prostating yourself at the altar"

    Log off already.

      Hey man if you enjoy being ripped off and shilling for a trash company that sues everyone and their mom for making a cookie in the shape of mario, then maybe you ought to log off as well. Maybe get some perspective and evalute some life choices.

  Microsoft and Sony aren’t currently trying to sue other developers into the ground. Nintendo is.

  Fuck Nintendo and quit licking their boots

      Nintendo is suing Palworld over patents they filed AFTER Palworld released, and said patents are so broad that many other games have the same features. Nintendo is the one in the wrong.

      Eat my entire ass, bootlicker.

    [citation needed], because given their size this feels more than just unlikely.

      Are you literally asking me to provide proof that somwthing isn’t happening?

      You can’t prove a negative, dumbass. The onus of proof is on you

        You can't prove a negative

        *blinks*

        You are calling me the "dumbass", here? 😅 Both logic and philosophy say this perspective is wrong, and also, funnily enough, if this were true (as in, it's not possible to proof a negative assertion in a burden-of-proof scenario) then that very claim could not be proven either? Because "You cannot prove a negative" is, in itself, a negative assertion.
        Luckily for us this is of course wrong, and you can prove a negative. Especially in matters of fact, since you could find a list of current filings of Microsoft and hence show that no, of all their ongoing lawsuits, there are none that are targetting developers (which is not the case, it was easy enough to find two cases without digging any deeper).

  Nintendo is no worse than Microsoft, Sony, Steam, I could go on and on.

  But that statement is incorrect. Nintendo does too much to harm game preservation than any other company.
