Nintendo is nowhere near the worst thing in the video game industry right now. Not saying I agree with everything they do, but compared to pretty much every other AAA? Their games actually feel like complete products on day 1, they don’t fire half their employees as soon as a game releases, they don’t try to get kids hooked on gambling, and they don’t fund genocide.
That one bothers me so much! I don’t give a shit about the copyright on material, I care that my county has been in water rationing for 3 years and a strong wind in a state known for wind can take the power down for a week. We can’t figure out basic community utilities and you’re expecting us to be ok with server farm bigger than my entire neighborhood that uses exponential more of those crippled utilities? Fuck off.

You’re not wrong, but it’s a sad state of affairs that Nintendo is one of the better AAA game companies
Not arguing your points, but I find it funny that there’s a post about Nintendo owning a porn video right above this post.
I think as long as nintendo has a strong stance against piracy, they can cure cancer and lemmy would still be against them.
Being pro-piracy and hating AI for “stealing” everything is very “It’s okay when WE do it.”
Yeah it’s insane how consistently hypocritical people will be about IP law in general
I kept seeing that the other day when Anthropic banned reverse-engineering games with Claude.
“Oh? They can steal from independent creators but we can’t? Boycott!!”
