I mean... Patents in general are bullshit just for things like this.
Japanese ones are particularly worse. In the US a successful defense is prior art, there is no such defense in Japan.
Since when is flying on a monster patentable. What a bunch of bullshit. Nintendo has really used up the last of any good will the company had. I will not be giving them a dime from here on out.
Fuck you, Nintendo. Release a fucking decent Pokemon game instead of lawyering the competition that's offering a more desirable product
That's lame af. Flying on my dragon dude between my bases was badass.
You can still fly, it's just gliding that got hit by the gaming mafia
I don't play Palworld, but still hate firms that behaves like this. Not buying Nintendo anymore 🥳 Emulators from here on :)
Patenting common stuff like this is just stupid! Think I read somewhere that Apple patented squares with rounded corners 😂 Hope Nintendo doesn't use rounded corners in any of their in-game menus.
I though patents were ment to protect important original ideas. Stuff with impact.
