@beardalaxy @picandor @Lemonid @tomie I remember Iwata saying that he didn't care about fan games, but after his passing, Reggie made comments saying "please respect our properties and we will respect yours".
It wouldn't surprise me if half of these Nintendo C&Ds are fake. It seems like Nintendo themselves go after fan projects because they have something similar they are working on (e.g going after AM2R because they already had a Metroid II remake in the works). Meanwhile there are so many fangames and ROM hacks that Nintendo never seemed to care about like Mari0.
@beardalaxy @picandor @Lemonid @tomie I wonder why that guy didn't go after projects that Nintendo genuinely doesn't care about like the Mother 3 fan translation of the Satellaview restoration projects.
@xianc78 @picandor @Lemonid @tomie there was someone pretending to be a lawyer that no longer worked at Nintendo for years, kaze did a video about it a while ago
