@KayFiOS I would like you to read HeadPirate's explanation on this matter. I think it is most reasonable explanation I have seen. Its the way it was coded, the animations, etc all that it was on radar. You can't pretend that Nintendo won't sue Palworld at all. It was very obvious they were going to. Like it or not, the patents are legally valid and Nintendo does have a case.
@HeadPirate I would also like to point out that it is mainly the Western audiences that are crying "Nintendo evil and such" but the Japanese public is siding with Nintendo and TPC.
@KayFiOS As explained before, the patents Nintendo is suing is actually legal and valid since 2021. BEFORE Palworld. So they technically DO have a case.
@PharoneTheGnome it was very obvious this was gonna be in court ever since people were tagging Nintendo and TPC on this. And also calling it “Pokemon with guns” doesn’t help at all.
@HeadPirate Once again, you are the voice of reason in this comment section I applaud you. Yea, these patents are completely valid and yeah technically it is legal for Nintendo to do such a thing.
@Gamer666 @Tyranexx Exactly and most of this conversation does not even understand that.
I went to the Buddha Tooth and Relic Museum in Chinatown, Singapore. They had one floor where we can’t take any pictures. I didn’t and definitely didn’t implode at all lol.
@UNCLDNS @Serpenterror actually according to Yokoyama himself, he said it is selling like hotcakes. So they probably had low expectations but it seems Kiwami sold really well and beyond their expectations. Seems nothing to worry about I guess.
@Elbow or just port MW remastered to Switch. It was rumored that it can come to Switch. I just want old CODs on Switch than new ones. Don’t need new ones.
@UltimateOtaku91 Switch 2 can run Metaphor. But I can't say the same for DD2 or MH Wilds. DD2 has performance issues for one and Im not sure for MH Wilds but it looks demanding.

Re: Palworld Developer Details Patent Infringement Claims From Nintendo's Lawsuit
@ZombieTechpad it also wouldn’t have existed if people didn’t call it “Pokemon with guns” and kept tagging Nintendo and TPC on Twitter.
Re: Palworld Developer Details Patent Infringement Claims From Nintendo's Lawsuit
@HeadPirate well tbh I like capitalism over socialism/communism. But lets really not go into ideologies here.

Supposedly (not sure if true or not) a former Pocketpair employee stated they did copy designs as well.
Re: Palworld Developer Details Patent Infringement Claims From Nintendo's Lawsuit
@ELY_M lawsuit is happening in Japan. Last I checked, this ain't happening in the US.

Re: Mini Review: STALKER: Shadow Of Chornobyl (Switch) - Legendary Series Stalks Switch With A Solid Port
@LikelySatan have NL done a review on CS and COP yet?
Re: Mini Review: STALKER: Shadow Of Chornobyl (Switch) - Legendary Series Stalks Switch With A Solid Port
@roy130390 gameplay wise, go with COP?
Re: Mini Review: STALKER: Shadow Of Chornobyl (Switch) - Legendary Series Stalks Switch With A Solid Port
@LikelySatan ain’t that a sequel? Unless you played SOC, I don’t think it’s the best starting point.
Re: Mini Review: STALKER: Shadow Of Chornobyl (Switch) - Legendary Series Stalks Switch With A Solid Port
I think I’ll get SOC and COP and ignore CS.
Re: Nintendo Download: 1st November (North America)
Imma wait on S.T.A.L.K.E.R Shadow of Chernobyl once I know what the reviews are like.
Imma assume you can play SOC and COP without playing CS.

Re: Review: Slay The Princess - The Pristine Cut (Switch) – A Brilliant Horror Narrative Hampered By Technical Issues
How does a visual novel/text based adventure even have technical issues?
Re: Get Into The Halloween Spirit With This Creepy New Little Nightmares III Trailer
@nintendolife Hi, are you gonna review FNAF Into the Pit and S.T.A.L.K.E.R Legends of the Zone trilogy?
Re: Poll: Is Next Week’s Investor Q&A Really Reason Enough For A 'Switch 2' Reveal?
I didn't know we already got a Switch 2 and we got a Switch 3 coming soon.
Joke aside, when Nintendo is ready, it will be ready.
Meanwhile, Imma look deeper into XCX since I never played a Xenoblade game and XCX looks quite interesting the most imo.
Re: Exclusive: Survival Horror RPG 'Chernobylite Complete Edition' Is Coming To Switch
We got S.T.A.L.K.E.R as well.
Not sure which one to get. Either way they're in Chernobyl so setting is the same.
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition Confirmed For Switch
That was unexpected
Re: Yakuza Kiwami Is Supposedly "Selling Like Crazy" On Switch
Bring Yakuza 0 now
Re: Nintendo Museum Overseas Visitors Reportedly Breaking 'No Photos' Rule
@jsty3105 @Tyranexx exactly right, my friends
Re: Nintendo Museum Overseas Visitors Reportedly Breaking 'No Photos' Rule
@jsty3105 there are museums in the West that don’t allow photos on some exhibits too and yet Japan and Nintendo get the exception.
Re: Nintendo Museum Overseas Visitors Reportedly Breaking 'No Photos' Rule
@Gamer666 @Tyranexx Exactly and most of this conversation does not even understand that.
I went to the Buddha Tooth and Relic Museum in Chinatown, Singapore. They had one floor where we can’t take any pictures. I didn’t and definitely didn’t implode at all lol.
Re: Nintendo Museum Overseas Visitors Reportedly Breaking 'No Photos' Rule
@BLAZINOAH if you go to the country, you respect that country’s laws. It’s really not difficult. If you can’t, don’t go. Simple as that.
And that mentality you have is only fueling Japanese dislike of foreigners.
Re: Nintendo Museum Overseas Visitors Reportedly Breaking 'No Photos' Rule
@jsty3105 and that’s what would get them in trouble. You want an example? Look up on that American kid who went to North Korea.

@nintendolife apparently Kiwami is selling well on Switch.
Re: STALKER: Legends Of The Zone Trilogy Estimated Switch File Size Seemingly Revealed
@Andgiles62 I see it on the US Eshop, so maybe regional differences.
Also I don't see the bundle at all but instead the individual releases which tbh is a blessing in disguise
Re: STALKER: Legends Of The Zone Trilogy Estimated Switch File Size Seemingly Revealed
Glad it’s getting individual releases because these games are very punishing from what I heard.
So choose wisely, everyone.
Re: Microsoft Talks About Extending Its Gaming Content To 'New Platforms'
@Elbow or just port MW remastered to Switch. It was rumored that it can come to Switch. I just want old CODs on Switch than new ones. Don’t need new ones.
Re: Best Nintendo Switch Horror Games
@nintendolife any particular reason why you put the OG Residenr Evil Zombie on the thumbnail?
Re: Nintendo Museum Overseas Visitors Reportedly Breaking 'No Photos' Rule
You know, its really not that hard to obey the rules.
Re: Microsoft Talks About Extending Its Gaming Content To 'New Platforms'
You said you'll bring COD to Switch and yet you haven't. At least bring the old CODs (like MW Remastered, or BO 1 and 2) to Switch.

@SpiderTom93
IGN opinion = opinion rejected
Re: Review: Yakuza Kiwami (Switch) - A Decent Port Of An Ambitious, Frustrating Game
@contractcooker No, I meant this should be at least an 8. 6 is low.
Re: Review: Yakuza Kiwami (Switch) - A Decent Port Of An Ambitious, Frustrating Game
@cosmograph there should be one, yes. Zero had one too iirc. Just saying.
Re: Review: Yakuza Kiwami (Switch) - A Decent Port Of An Ambitious, Frustrating Game
@UNCLDNS all this does is prove his point. This game should at least be an 8. I played 0 once and that was fun as well.
Re: Review: Yakuza Kiwami (Switch) - A Decent Port Of An Ambitious, Frustrating Game
@contractcooker no I do not. It should be a 8 at best.
Re: Review: Yakuza Kiwami (Switch) - A Decent Port Of An Ambitious, Frustrating Game
LMAO. A 6??? This should have been an 8 at MOST.
Re: Rumour: Nintendo To Lean On Third-Parties For Switch Support In 2025
Let’s wait and see. I’m interested.
Re: Review: Fire Emblem Engage (Switch) - Relationships Get Sidelined By A Thrilling Combat-First Focus
@HeeHo yeah but I want a game more focused on the gameplay and such. And also, 3 Houses had some performance issues iirc.
Thats why I thought of getting Engage. So I can start with that game for beginners
Re: Talking Point: Is It Time For Another Side-Scrolling Zelda Game?
2D or not 2D, that is the question.
Re: US Hurricanes Delay Wario Land-Inspired Platformer 'Antonblast'
Florida is having it rough. First Hurricane Helene, then Milton, it is rough for them. I hope everyone in Florida and other affected states stay safe.
Re: Review: Fire Emblem Engage (Switch) - Relationships Get Sidelined By A Thrilling Combat-First Focus
@HeeHo is this game worth it for beginners?
Re: Yakuza Kiwami Dev Confirms Physical Switch Release

Re: Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered Shoots Onto Switch Next Year
@Yosti Shadow is way too demanding so Switch can't run it. But 2013 and Rise is doable on Switch.
But the Switch 2 can handle Shadow.
Re: Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered Shoots Onto Switch Next Year
We are getting every Tomb Raider game except Tomb Raider 2013.
Seriously, why can’t we get Tomb Raider 2013? The game was on the 7th gen consoles. It’s an early 8th gen game. Switch can handle it.
Re: Japanese Charts: Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom Summons Up Another Win
@UltimateOtaku91 Switch 2 can run Metaphor. But I can't say the same for DD2 or MH Wilds. DD2 has performance issues for one and Im not sure for MH Wilds but it looks demanding.
Re: Yakuza Kiwami Dev Confirms Physical Switch Release
Game is 22.9 GB. Damn, that is a lot. Will have to wait on this later sadly.
But I will get it if it runs well on Switch tho. I MIGHT actually wait on a physical version for this then just in case.
