This just shows they core more about controlling leaks than controlling the quality of the games themselves. Priorities right?

--Onilink--1949d ago

yes, Im sure all those lawyers would be extremely helpful in improving the quality of games....

Blank1949d ago

Damn this genuinely made me chuckle, well played.

Sgt_Slaughter1949d ago

That's not how this works at all.

prankster1011949d ago

Don't know what the big deal is... Pokemon is rubbish anyway.

The site was doing Nintendo a favour.

iplay1up21949d ago

It doesn't matter what you or I think about Pokemon. The games sell millions easily. I don't like them either. It is huge for Nintendo though.

I would definitely be up for a new Pokemon Snap though! That could be really cool!

Sgt_Slaughter1949d ago

I know it might be hard for some on this site to understand, but breaking legal agreements is a big no-no in the real world. So yes, "it's a big deal".

Thousands of employees. Mmm. you'd think we would get a decent game.

--Onilink--1949d ago

Thousands? Think more like about 150.

Pokemon is made by Gamefreak, not Nintendo

MeteorPanda1949d ago

The article says thousands

ZeekQuattro1949d ago

Gamefreak has around 150 staff members. Where are you getting thousands of employees from?

Teflon021949d ago

Well with the amount they make vs use. Also the fact a game like Temtem is being made by I believe 18 ppl. It's a shame that Pokemon Sword and shield are like that tbh

Mandingo20201949d ago

This latest outing of Pokemon games suck anyways. I played through Pokemon Sword all the way through the game in thirty hours. The game sucks and it funded my DBZ Kakarot purchase from Gamestop lol.

Teflon021949d ago

I'm on the edge of trading it in myself. Then pay the rest for another game. Still haven't decided. Either Tokyo Mirage sessions or put it towards Persona 5 or something

Good riddance. Leak information on something and you pay the price. It cost not only the reviewers job but the business between the site and Nintendo. Didn't know N4G had a soft spot. Bet half of you didn't know this wasn't a normal leak. A reviewer took it upon themselves to break embargo, and got caught. There is a reason sites don't break embargo's. This can happen.

It would be nice if they had the lottery in other parts of the world as well.
