    If this is successful, it will open the door to a whole new level of patent trolling.

    Hey buddy, remember back in 1982 when I came up with the idea for drawing triangles on the screen to make more complicated three dimensional shapes? Remember when I came up with the idea for a meter that displays a virtual character’s current health level? Remember when I came up with the idea for using collectible coins as an in-game currency, and awarding extra in-game lives when the player collects enough? Yeah, I’m patenting all of that now, just in case…

      I did, at launch. It was somewhat fun, and I didn’t regret my purchase. It’s pretty much exactly the game you expect, from the ads. That alone makes it noteworthy, IMO. :D

    sigh

    If you come into my home, you will see Nintendo memorbilia. Set up as a display of sorts. Theres amiibo, stuffed animals, pez dispensers, coins, ect ect ect.

    Clearly I love the games, and the worlds that Nintendo puts out. I’m 41. I’ve loved these things since I was in diapers probably.

    That being said…

    Fuck you Nintendo! You court trolling, abusive legal bully! You treat the world like everybody owes you everything! We don’t owe you jack shit! You own Nintendo properties. Nothing more, you lawyer infestered shitbags!
