Can't they just release free DLC with those features worldwide exlcuding Japan where those patents are enforceable ?
I don't play Palworld, but still hate firms that behaves like this. Not buying Nintendo anymore 🥳 Emulators from here on :)
Patenting common stuff like this is just stupid! Think I read somewhere that Apple patented squares with rounded corners 😂 Hope Nintendo doesn't use rounded corners in any of their in-game menus.
I though patents were ment to protect important original ideas. Stuff with impact.
Patents should last 10 years instead of 20, and digital patents even less.
Not that I matter being a single person but cya Nintendo I won't be buying anything from you ever again honestly unless its used and from someone on facebook marketplace or the likes of.
