These Nintendo Games are Hiding a Dark Secret...

[@joeyjose727]

Nintendo is definitely shady and petty but I’m guessing the reason they DMCA’d the Mario Royale game is that they were already planning Mario 35

not to mention a mario battle royalle was a trendy idea anyways

Kind of scummy. Sure copyright exist. But couldn’t they instead decide to…you know, hire those creative creators?

[@brawlman644]

About the Mario and Peach age gap joke... Peach is not 16 and Mario is not 35, Nintendo has stated that they are both roughly the same age (somewhere around 25 years old, the exact age was not given). The reason searching Peach's age gives you 16 as an answer is because that is how long ago the game Super Princess Peach released.

[@XionSteel]

Not really trying to defend anything even though this sounds like it, but Nintendo only really goes after things that are trying to monetize using their IPs, use their ips for nefarious purposes (scams, illegal activity, etc), or else go after things that resembles something that are planning to release in the future. Happened to the metroid fan game, happened to smash bros, happened to Mario royal. You'd actually be surprised on how many things actually infringe on Nintendo's IPs that they are fully aware exists, but choose not to do anything since they dont fall into any of the above categories and wont affect them financially. In a way you can kind of use this as a way to guage what Nintendo is working on. That said, they are pretty scummy in how they do get things removed, usually waiting until its almost complete and then pulling the rug out, wasting countless days/weeks/months/year of work. A lot of the time the timing looks very suspicious but they are working on quite a bit, just the jp mentality to never leak things before they are released makes it worse then it seems. ;/

It would be horrible if you could own the copyright of the idea of "many players playing at the same time in game X" and "a remake of game X". Nintendo shouldn't be considered stealing these ideas, because these ideas are so broad and generic that these could easily be made up independently.

[@cursix64]

May be their property but I feel they do owe compensation to the ones who created the new idea. Don't steal, just "ask nicely" to take down then work to make it more 'official'.

[@M0Bk]

You got Square Enix to sponsor a Nintendo video lol

[@Liggliluff]

Isn't it funny though how people are calling out Nintendo for "stealing the idea" from a fan game, a fan game that was already stealing the IP from Nintendo.

I think nintendo, or at least game freak, canceled Pixelmon for a bit and then a couple years later released that weird block one on the switch and phone, some Pixelmator servers are still up though so I don't know

Because that's just a bad moral. You can't overly sexualized a female character before she's even confirmed.

@@mariajimenafigueroa233 1) being fanart doesnt make it canon for Nintendo to be sued for. And have you ever heard of what rule34 is about ? How is it a surprise for a popular female character to get nsfw fanarts ?? 2) for reminder, she became wildly popular on the japanese twitter as soon as she got created BEFORE she even got her first nsfw fanart done ! Could you name only one official Nintendo character who got such a quick pick in popularity without counting any nsfw stuff ?? Also "you cant over sexualized a female character before she's even confirmed" 1) says who ? Surely not every rule34 artists who managed to make nsfw of characters they barely catch a glimpse of from trailers or beta games ! 2) "you cant" is only a technical reality. If rule34 artists could get a sight of any female character so they could draw nsfw of her before she got confirmed, TRUST ME they would !

2:38: Finally, someone agrees with me on this. I know of another fangame they didn’t take down: Mario Forever, which also has a level editor type thing called Mario Worker, which came out long before Super Mario Maker. If Nintendo took down Mario Forever and Mario Worker, people would flip out when Nintendo was found out about taking down an old popular fangame, just to make their own level editor type game. Besides, Nintendo mostly goes against fangames made for profit.

Also, Nintendo only shuts down fan games that are remakes or uses the same level/levels from one of their games. That was why Mario Royale, DMCA Royale, AM2R, and Super Mario 64 HD were taken down and not games like Super Mario Bros. X, Super Mario Flashback, and Super Smash Flash.

[@nathanlevesque7812]

Just to be clear, Nintendo does not have any legal right to take down free mods. They do not get to tell people what to do with things after purchase. Anybody can modify what they personally own. Only distributing unapproved copies or unapproved commercial use is unlawful. If the Mario Royale thing was just a way to modify a copy of the original game that would have been fine. It was a browser game so they were providing unapproved copies (that are also modded), not mods themselves.

You forget that the entire idea of the switch isn't Nintendo's. I remember seeing somewhere that the idea came from sega in the 90s, but when I actually looked for it, I instead found the Watara Supervision, which could connect to a tv using a link cable, and was created in 1992. There was also the Neo Geo X, which had a docking port to connect to the tv as well, and came out in 2012, during the awful Wii U phase of Nintendo. The switch was in 2017. The point is, it's pointless to say that the switch is innovative, or that Nintendo came up with the idea. No matter how much they pretend it's their own invention, it's been done before. Plus, I don't think it would take 30 years for someone to have the bright idea of a handheld game system being able to plug into a tv so you can play on it, that would be outright ridiculous. PEOPLE HAVE AN IMAGINATION.
