  • And they can look at any small business, be it product, art, any book anyone writes, and they can flood the market, crushing you and profiting of the thing you made. Can people not see how this goes both ways and how this would destroy any desire for creation, knowing rich people will just take it and stomp you out immediately?

    Imagine you write the next Harry Potter book or some shit, you’re catching on and getting popular and now it’s gone. A different company is printing your book and you don’t get any money. They’re making movies off your book and you get nothing. You go to stores and see merch from your book that you wrote that you’ll never see a dime of. This is the world you want? Where the rich can easily just take anything with no defense from the creator?

    The force streamers and people who cover Nintendo to pay them, because word of mouth isn’t enough. They need money.

    They have and continue to directly or aid in the effort to patten basic game mechanics.

    They refuse to participate in cross play functionality often.

    They kill fan projects because fuck you for liking our games and bringing more attention to them I guess.

    They lock games away forever, not rereleasing and killing mods aggressively. Actively killing gaming history.

    A company doesn’t have to be my friend. But when they are actively attacking people who express love for their product you eventually stop loving the product.

    Don’t forget, you see way less Nintendo gaming videos and streamers. Because they are greedy and want a cut of what is made. They’re not happy with the good word of mouth, they NEED to get paid.

    Also look at this shit with PalWorld. Working to retroactively patten very basic game mechanics because a franchise that refused to evolve got beat by the new kids.
