Nintendo and their lawyers can go suck an elephant dick.

From part 8 of the newest doc

the boarding character is selected among a plurality of characters the player character owns in association with providing a second operation input when the player character is in the air, cause the player character to board an air boarding character and bringing the character into a state where the player character can move in the air

and while the player is aboard the air boarding character, move the player character, aboard the air boarding character, in the air based on a third operation input

Plurality of mounts and "second operation when in the air" ain't new, World of Warcraft had that in 2007 with Burning Crusade. I have no clue what "third operation input" means there.

A lot of the other alterations seem to focus on "air boarding character", probably because they realized that you can only change your mount in Palworld manually while on ground or water, which kept glider pals safe, as they were the only ones you could summon while in the air.

Nintendo is the worst fucking company, and yet all I hear is "I can't wait to get that Switch 2". The general public doesn't know fuck all about anything in the world.

That's funny because I'm betting the EU will just invalidate all the us parents as a retaliation to tarrifs

Receiving a patent after another company already made a product that would infringe that patent?

That sure sounds very legal :^)

God, I wouldn't even play the newer Pokémon games if I pirated them. Imagine being sued because somone thought you copied "Z-A", or whatever dumbass name the newest Pokémon game has. "Your honor, in my defense, my game isn't steaming hot shit, therefore I couldn't have copied Nintendo."

So, if you have enough money, you can just fire off a shitload of ex-post-facto patents after a competitor releases a prior-art product, sue them, and win using patents that didn't exist when the competitor's product was created????

Might as well just close the whole patent system and leave, there's quite literally no point to obeying it if you can so blatantly steal anything and everything.

This is like the Streisand effect for making me want to pirate their content out of spite

Thanks for reminding me to not buy the switch 2

Unfortunately nintendo lawyers are already on their way to send a cease and desist to OP for using their name in a lemmy post :(

Hypothetically, If I were working at pocket pair, I'd put 2M in crypto on the side to support a team of devs to hack the switch two and enable piracy from year one. Fight fire with fire.

Be prepared to grab your pitchforks and torches! We storm against Goliath as dawn!

All jokes aside, would absolutely love it if a bunch of Sintendo "fans" all stormed the courtroom in support of them to give them to hopefully lower their brand reputation. Not just this potential case, but literally every single time they go to court anywhere.
