By protecting their IPs and characters? I’m glad you don’t run any corporations, because you would give away IPs for FREE and drive the company to bankruptcy, rather than licensing them.

MetalGearsofWar222d ago

There's no pokemon in palworld.

PRIMORDUS222d ago

There is nothing to protect. People will still buy Pokemon games regardless of Palworld. Nintendo will never get it.

shaenoide222d ago

Pokemonster were based on Dragon Quest design. So what do we do ?

Angyobangyo222d ago

Oh right you clearly know how to run corporations. Must be a slow day at your corporation to be posting here based purely on your feelings. Last I checked the game was unveiled in 2021 and Nintendo never issued a cease and desist, let alone sue.

OtterX222d ago

@BeHunted shaenoide is right. Pokemon ripped off Dragon Quest first. Palworld monsters are as much a variant of Pokemon as Pokemon was of Dragon Quest.

repsahj222d ago (Edited 222d ago )

It's expected. The designs of monsters look like pokemon with angry faces.

Michiel1989222d ago

so now nintendo got a monopoly on making designs based on rl animals?

repsahj222d ago

@Michiel1989

You will know if it is based on real life animals. It is obvious where the designs were taken from.

"You will know if it is based on real life animals. It is obvious where the designs were taken from."

its obviously were pokemon took their design from as well, so your point?

Also its similar but not their own, they CANT take down what they do not own, they did have to take palworld to court first, and they know they will fail miserably if they do...

PRIMORDUS222d ago

You can buy the shirt here: https://www.redbubble.com/i...
And so many other's besides Sparkit on Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/search...
Nintendo will not touch anything on Etsy, if they let anyone buy modded Nintendo Switches with the games installed, they are not going to take down a shirt on Etsy🤣 Example: https://www.etsy.com/search...

Inverno222d ago

Ninty can't take down what doesn't belong to em, neither are they the owner of cutesy monster designs or the concept itself.

BrainSyphoned222d ago

I want a fan made Palworld TCG deck that is compatible with PokeTCG.

CobraKai222d ago

That’s not theirs this time. Sure they look close to Pokemon but it’s not Pokemon

Palworld's PS5 console release on hold in Japan

Eurogamer writes: "While a reason for Japan's PS5 omission was not given, it is fair to surmise it has something to do with the fact Nintendo is suing Pocketpair for patent infringement. Pocketpair claims it's unaware of which patents it has infringed, though recent reports suggest it's a patent to do with how players throw Pokéballs."

“There is a lot of talk about A.I., for example. When that happens, everyone starts to go in the same direction, but that is where Nintendo would rather go in a different direction."

Good on Nintendo for not chasing the next big thing.

Aussiesummer19h ago

Well nintendo has always been about innovation so I'm not surprised.

KyRo17h ago

Always? I feel the last time off the top of my head that they were innovative was the 3DS/Wii era. They are very successful at what they do but I wouldn't say they are as innovative as they used to be.

Venoxn4g17h ago

Well, in my opinion they have popularised hybrid console which is the Switch

KyRo16h ago(Edited 16h ago)

Your opinion is correct. There's no denying Nintendo's influence on the handheld market that's paved the way for the ROG, Steam Deck, MSI Claw etc but apart from the dock to get a small jump in power, it wasn't really revolutionary, even back when it launched. It was a more refined concept of the Wii U which again wasn't new or groundbreaking back then either.

Aussiesummer8h ago

What the switch wasn't innovative? Cmon.

SeTTriP4h ago

He was saying that's what they strive for and that is a fact.do they always hit the mark?. no but it's in they're design philosophy all the same.

badz14919h ago

LOL simply because they don't want to invest in it and stick to their outdated approach. See the next pokemon game on Switch 2 will look like something that should come out during the PS3 gen

Profchaos17h ago(Edited 17h ago)

So a custom art style vs GTA trilogy style mistakes through their games

I'll take the art style thanks

WolfSeed19h ago(Edited 19h ago)

Translation: We'll wait until it's cheaper.

Hilarious shadow dropping this during the Nintendo lawsuit.

Puty1d 23h ago

Man, it feels like Sony is late to the party with this.

PRIMORDUS1d 20h ago

Would love it if Sony actually helpled the devs fight Nintendo, and Nintendo loses and was humiliated.

Gamingsince19811d 4h ago

If Nintendo wins this lawsuit it was by bribes and should be investigated, there is no way on earth any judge would give Nintendo the win based on the infringements they say palworld is doing, only someone paid off would agree with Nintendo in this situation.
