  Have you seriously never heard of the Nintendo v Palworld cases? Those are still going on after 2 years despite Nintendo’s claims being complete bullshit

  Court case with undeniable and sufficient evidence also doesnt last long. There is more to the story than “they do it/they dont do it”

  But claiming they do before it has been proven is dumb.

    Defending a company with multiple unrelated entities suing them over the same thing, including non competitors, before they’ve been proven to NOT be doing that thing is very stupid.

      Blindly believing those claims before they’re proven in court is very stupid.

      Let the courts make their ruling.

      with multiple unrelated entities suing them

      How do we know they’re really unrelated? A lot of the lawsuits are in the US, where bribery lobbying is very prevalent, and the lawsuits brought forth by private entities could be backed by Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo, Epic, etc. under the table. Hell, any publisher/developer involved in the ESA is by definition not “unrelated”
