I know the guy who made this game. I'm not even kidding. We both work in the dorms at the same college.
If I didn't know the guy personally, I would likely have the same reaction as you all. But now I can't. I'm not defending this game, as I haven't played it yet, but looking at all these comments about him, it gives me a bit of perspective on how we can shamelessly bash someone we don't know.
Creating a game is a heavy task, and not one taken for no reason. Hate on the game, but don't hate on the developer for trying to share something he created, or Nintendo for enabling him to express himself.
How do I simultaneously want and not want this thing? ._. It's freaking awesome, but at the same time... It's just Pikachu, and playing anything else but Pokemon would be awkward on it. ...But then again, it's freaking awesome...

Re: Nintendo of Europe Offers Up Free Layton Swag
