Dude stop. There’s no ethical consumption in post-/late stage capitalism. Nintendo is no worse than Microsoft, Sony, Steam, I could go on and on. Let people play their fucking video games—it’s one of the only nice things about living in this modern day. Fucking sheesh.
You are calling me the “dumbass”, here? 😅 Both logic and philosophy say this perspective is wrong, and also, funnily enough, if this were true (as in, it’s not possible to proof a negative assertion in a burden-of-proof scenario) then that very claim could not be proven either? Because “You cannot prove a negative” is, in itself, a negative assertion.
Luckily for us this is of course wrong, and you can prove a negative. Especially in matters of fact, since you could find a list of current filings of Microsoft and hence show that no, of all their ongoing lawsuits, there are none that are targetting developers (which is not the case, it was easy enough to find two cases without digging any deeper).
And I mean, this doesn’t do shit to exhonorate Nintendo here, but let’s not pretend Microsoft and Sony aren’t constantly running hundreds of legal cases and multiple will be targetting developers of all sizes. They’re just avoiding big press about most of them.
You can just admit you were wrong, you know? Both about current legal cases and about how how proofs of negative claims are viewed in mathmatics particularly logic, and in philosophy. That’s okay. Sometimes we are wrong, and we learn from accepting that.
I don’t disagree Nintendo is a shithole company, after all. Just take it as a learning experience: More than one company can be shite at the same time.
Nintendo is suing Palworld over patents they filed AFTER Palworld released, and said patents are so broad that many other games also technically violate said bullshit patents. Nintendo is the one in the wrong.
Hey man if you enjoy being ripped off and shilling for a trash company that sues everyone and their mom for making a cookie in the shape of mario, then maybe you ought to log off as well. Maybe get some perspective and evalute some life choices.

Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.
Rules
1. Submissions have to be related to games
Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.
This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.
2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil
No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.
We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.
3. No excessive self-promotion
Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.
This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.
4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts
This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you’re submitting before posting to see if it’s already been posted.
We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.
5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW
Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.
No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.
6. No linking to piracy
Don’t share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.
We don’t want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.
Very edgy
No, actually, fuck Nintendo. Or keep licking their boots, you do you.

But that statement is incorrect. Nintendo does too much to harm game preservation, much more than any other company.
Thank you.
Microsoft and Sony aren’t currently trying to sue other developers into the ground. Nintendo is.
Fuck Nintendo and quit licking their boots

Are you literally asking me to provide proof that somwthing isn’t happening?
You can’t prove a negative, dumbass. The onus of proof is on you
*blinks*

If you’ve ever taken a philosophy course you’d know you’re completely full of shit.
Your whole comment belongs on r/okbuddyretard. Not that I should have expected any better from a Nintendo bootlicker

Eat my entire ass, bootlicker.
