Nintendo is one of the most litigious video game companies ever. I cannot believe it took them more than 48 hours, let alone this long.

Sure sure, I know Nintendo obviously doesn’t like them, but they gotta give a reason that matters.

i mean the game is over of the most high profile blatant knockoffs I’ve ever seen. I believe legal evidential reasoning is “res ipsa loquitur” which is Latin for “look at this fucking thing”

I don’t think Nintendo should get to own the concept. We’ve had dog fighting since before digital media existed.

it’s not the concept dude; you can’t copyright that (though you can patent very vague shit apparently, don’t get me started). their creatures look extremely similar.

It’s actually based on Japanese kids who would catch beetles in the woods and make them fight. Why do you think some of the first enemies you fight are bug catchers?
