I want anyone to lend me ALL the heads of the hoennbabbies who felt bad about shitty Pokemon Uranium, especially those who thought that shit deserved an TGAs fangame award over AM2R.

This is fucking bullshit

Prism got shut down only now because Prism is the name of the third SM game on Switch


All he has to do is get tpp to release it as ''TPP crystal special edition 2'' quietly on reddit and the chans

It's entirely the fault of gaming news media. If you pay attention, the only fan games that get cease and desists are the ones that appear on mainstream gaming sites. Fangames held inside of small forum communities don't get the same treatment.

Companies like Nintendo don't want their IPs represented in the mainstream by fangames, but they'll allow them to exist outside of that bubble.

it's not the fact they aren't illegal, if the company doesn't warrant it, they'll ask you to shut it down.

Iwata was the only guy at Nintendo who understood that fangamers shouldn't be treated like criminals and be shutdown often-ly. he was the guy who personally gave free passes to whatever shit going on in the fanbase. (hence why stuff like AM2R or that oldass OoT2D project lived for so long)

and he's fucking dead

meanwhile Kimishima, an ex-NoA president, is CEO of the entire corporation. NoA has been super-aggressive on fan games since Howard Lincoln wanted to jew up video game prices at Congress and lost to that court case with Galoob

it should be obvious that NoA is pull all the strings with the shutdowns, and it's time to just move on and fight back somewhere else by making an original video game based on that product

>>30938397

nintendo has taken down fan events and adult themed shit at conventions in the past. If they say it's infringing GUESS WHAT? It is. You can fight it and claim fair use but you're not getting past their legal team.

they set a precedent when Nintendo sued the makers of the Game Genie in the 80s. And lost.

Are you intentionally being obtuse? Because it's not acute.

>>30938397

actually yes a company representative can shut down any fan art or works if it infringes on their works or they just don't like it.

Why do you think there is almost zero cosplay porn of nintendo ips in moonland?
>>
>>30939080
He's not comparing them at all you dink. He's saying what >>30938961 said. Just because it's their 'right' doesn't mean it's justified morally. If you think what they're doing is okay, then you must also believe that owning slaves was okay, since it was within the law at the time.

>but muh fair use
read this fucking pic again

SC says no company is sanctioned to defend there shit as much as possible nor will get in trouble for giving out free passes

however, this doesn't mean the company have the power to shut down stuff despite how grey area it is.

again it's up to the company to decide if this should roam among the public, liking SEGA's personal privilege to let Sonic fangamers to do whatever the hack they want non-profitably.

>>
>>30939145
It doesn't have to be justified morally, morality doesn't come into this sort of legal system and it shouldn't. It's a piece of created artwork and character and has nothing to do with real people.

"Oh but they are just having FUN guys haha they aren't going to have any effect on Nintendo at all, can't you just let them use what belongs to you because they aren't hurting anybody :)))))"

>if you think that protecting your IP is ok, then you think that slavery is ok because both were legal at some point in time in the universe
Overreaching a fucking lot. It would be the exact same as saying that you are ok with slavery right now because you want people to break the law on IP.

Do you really think it is immoral for Nintendo to shut down a project that is using their IP? It's not like Nintendo is targeting him especifically.
>>
>>30939276
I'm not going to argue with you. We simply have different views. I'm not going to change your mind, and you're not going to change mine. You must be a lawyer or something. No good person thinks the way you do.

Yes, it is. No one should have the right to tell another entity that they are not allowed to improve upon an idea, whether specific or general. The current system of copyright law is archaic and immoral and is used to perpetuate unjustified monopolies. But now I realize I'm sounding like a fucking commie and also a nigger so I'll stop.

If you think you can do something better than someone else then make it your own than you can say your ideas were better than X companies idea. Instead these hacks are just aping their inspirations.

So tell me what stops me from getting shitty games, putting inside Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon boxes and selling them. Nintendo has no rights over anything in there, I could even put a small asterisk that says "*Not real ingame footage" on the corner on the backside, to prevent other problems.

And if Nintendo even tries to stop me, they are the immoral ones that should be burned, how come they complain about me trying to improve on their IP???

Fairness. Usually what is moral is fair, but they are not equals. Laws were created so that everything is fair for everyone.

It is not fair that random nobody uses the name of an IP that a company has been taking care and looking after for 2 decades.

But then how do you define what is and is not fair? Do you not require some form of morality to determine that? How do you determine that your example is unfair? Would you also agree that your statement applies to fanfiction as well? Are you against that? That's fine if you are, not trying to push you into a corner or anything.

it's not for us to judge it's the courts and the copyright holders decision to.
>>
>>30939826
But that's perfectly acceptable to divert the discussion to something else unrelated to what the poster is talking about. It was done in at least half the posts here.
>>
It's not an original indie game, it's a fan game/romhack. I don't get why the devs thought they had privilege of promoting it across every channel possible, on twitch, youtube, and mainstream gaming news websites like it's some big official upcoming release. The marketing is where they went wrong.

Never market something that can be C&Ded before release. Let the final product speak for itself and work on marketing it after. If you have to tell people about it use enthusiast forums and don't make professional official looking trailers that get 1.4 million views on youtube.

It's honestly hard to have sympathy for these devs who think they can gain this much visibility and popularity for something they know can be legally pursued.

It's plain idiocy and flaunting of something that can be easily punished. It's like stealing from a museum, getting away with zero police leads, and then buying advertisements that tells a huge mainstream audience that you have the stolen object. If you commit an infraction that would otherwise go unpunished, don't advertise loudly and proudly about it.

No morality is required on stuff like copyrights. It is basic logic, if a person creates something, he has the rights to use it.

About fanfiction, if someone is releasing a fanfiction, and its creator doesn't like how it is portraying its IP, it has all the rights to stop it.
>>
>>30939881
If you knew what ego is, then you should know that you don't have to explicitly post what is your current emotional status for everyone. For example, you can know that someone has a fragile ego just by looking at the way they post.

Not actual new stories. Still Nintendo will go afher any illegal rom hack or fan game or roms of games they own.

Oddly enough they don't seem to take down gen 1 hacks or edited hacks. Just new story hacks. They must not really like when the games are edgy.

Not necessarily. Blanket statements like that are dangerous and can lead to edge cases that you must also agree with or be deemed a hypocrite. For example, if I created the cure for cancer and copyright it, you would say that I have the right to use it in any way that I please. The cure is in liquid form, so I wish to use it as sex jelly for my girlfriend (my ona hole). No one gets cured of cancer and I create a new form of cancer by simply existing, thanks to your amoral copyright laws.
>>
>>30940076
I'm being sincere. The dude spending so much time on a fan game could be making something original instead. He might even be able to make money off of it that way, and wouldn't have to worry about copyright lawyers removing his life's work.

Life isn't fair. The law exists to protect people and their property.

You are violating their property with out their intent. You had no permission and you are hurting their brand.

Another thing is nothing would be profitable if someone made a terrible offensive game that made a known franchise suck and was created by a fan.

>>30940098
You invented it, you can do whatever you want with it. But a judge is who will decide by its own morality what is right.

Laws are made based on what is fair, and since it is impossible to describe every single case in the universe, judges exist to interpret it and use their morality to decide what was fair in that specific case. This is why for example, there are cases where a judge isn't required, since both parties agreed on what is fair on their own, and not what is moral.

1) devs hyped up the youtube trailer and did tpp. Big mistake.
2) Prism may be targeted specifically becauae of something related to Necrozma and the Switch SM game.

I already chose to pirate SM instead of buying it because of the shit that happened with AM2R, and at least AM2R actually got released and mirrored before the DMCA.

What the fuck Nintendo? What do you gain from this? How is this going to help your PR?

>I don't know why copyright exists: the posts

The only reason companies have a right to decide how theitr work is used at all is because it's intended to be a temporary incentive for them to continually make new ones. By allowing them to temporarily profit off of it, and then losing the right to, there's a reason for them to contiually make more content,

The entire purpose of IP law, not even just for copyright, is for the public good, not private profit. Companies and individuals have no and should have no inherent right to control their discoveries and creations. Fangames, if anything, are completely in line with the purpose of it, because it's fostering the creation of new content the public can consume without interfering with the incentiization of the creation of new IP's.

And even if it was, in any sane system where term lengths are actually defined to be a period of time to execute the intended purpose of copyright law, the Pokemon IP would be in the public domain already.

Furthermore, companies have absoluteloy zero obligation to take down infirning content for copyright. They don't lose their right to it if they don't or anything of the sort. With trademarks, there is a process called genericization where if the use of the brand name in the public's eye it becomes synonbmous with the product type itself, such as if "nintendo" became synomous with "a video game console regardless of brand", then they lose it, but obvious fangames and fanworks have absolutely no impact on that.
No, you don't. That's only for trademarks and even then it wouldn't require you to go

Copyrights lasts for a fucking long time. Nintendo could not move a finger in the pokemon franchise until you die and it would still hold the copyright to it.

Also, "incentive" is a kind word for, no one else should fucking profit from what you invented unless they have permission to. It is only fair that you profit from what you invented, but how do you stop people from copying your shit? Copyrights.

Because companies lobbyied for the term lengths to be extended. Originally, it only lasted for 14 years: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright_Act_of_1790

And research from a few years ago showed that the ideal term length to incentivize new IP's would also be 14 years: http://arstechnica.com/uncategorized/2007/07/research-optimal-copyright-term-is-14-years/

>>30938097
Literally who fucking cares? Instead of advertising everywhere they were doing something illegal, they should have just made the fucking game out of love for the franchise and released it without making a fuzz.

It can be that copyrights were invented with incentives as one of the main reasons, but it is in no way why it exists now.

so you don't really like nintendo but you like their products. That's a textbook defintion of a fair weather pretendo fan if i ever heard it.

>I still like Nintendo games, even modern Pokémon games,
apparently you didn't like Codename STEAM because despite demanding new IPs no one bought it because EW NOT ENOUGH WAIFUS, I DON'T LIKE AMERICAN HISTORY, THIS ARTSTYLE SUCKS, I DON'T LIKE THIS GENRE ANYWAY, WHY DID INTELLEGENT SYSTEMS WORK ON THIS INSTEAD OF MORE FIRE EMBLEM?

yes Emerald is one of my favorite pokemon games becauee of it

I will never, never, NEVER understand how people are so fucktarded EVERY SINGLE TIME.

That kind of project is always, invariably, UN-FUCKING-DOUBTABLY axed the second it garners too much attention, or as soon as it gets any kind of playable material out.

So what do they do?
Do they stay silent until it's ready?
Do they obscure the release date until they can release the complete version?
Do they put up the game before they can get a C&D, thus making it impossible to contain it?

No

Prism has a ton of modern enhancements like the phys/spec split, newer moves, newer Pokémon, etc., it's not just GSC.

I would say GSC are better than SM just for having two regions though. I personally rank the generations
4 > 5 > 3 > 2 > 7 > 1 > 6
The reason SM is so low for me is the cutscenes actually, not the postgame. I haven't even finished the game because I'm so sick of the cutscenes (just caught Lunala).

>>30940867
Holy fucking shit this.

Copyright has become a bloated Draconian institution.
>>
>>30942076

nope.

they TRIED to make a new game so they wouldn't get typecast to make nothing but FE games after the success of Awakening and the demand for more strategy nintendo games. No one bought it because it didn't have enough waifus, it wasn't anime enough, and apparently most people didn't even know that the shit demo when turns took too long was patched DAY FUCKING ONE and reviewers STILL shit on it assuming the patches never existed. CS reviews pissed me off because this was never addressed they just parroted CAWWWWW GAME TOO SLOW CAWWWWWW and no one bought it.

Except for the fact most of their fanbase are super casual and don't know about Romhacks and the ones that do are so hooked, they'll keep buying the games anyway.

The demo needs to be the absolute best the game will ever be, honestly, unless it's dropped MONTHS before the game proper.

It was fine (and still is) when it comes to previewing potential content, but when you don't get a demo until a week or two before ship date there's no real excuse for the game to not be ridiculously close to the real thing.

In this specific case, though, I'm willing to chalk it up to "most of the playtesters didn't think to flag it in time for the demo". Shit happens.

>>
>>30941415
Twitch Plays Pokemon probably made money off of playing it through Twitch Subscriptions but I don't think the actual Dev was getting money off it in any way, I could be wrong.

It's probably because of the Twitch Stream, hugely popular trailer using the Pokemon Logo, and the delay for minor bug fixes that all added up to nintendo taking it down, which sucks. Uranium at least got to release before a takedown, and I think Uranium only got a C&D AFTER they took it down out of fear.

These guys that are caving to C&Ds have a bunch of ways of working around them. If they actually gave a shit they'd either fight back or play around it, but they don't most of the time. I could give a shit about some half-baked no-grit pansies in a basement not willing to stand up for their work.

Nintendo's only playing the game as they've been told is okay. Boycotting their games or sending them angry letters doesn't tell them to stop, but making it not worth their time does. I'd be willing to bet that if EVEN ONE of these guys pulled out corporate law and said "Yeah I don't think so. See you in court." they'd probably back the fuck off instead of wasting tons of money on legal fees and lawyers for 0 profit.

>>30945365

yeah he made a mistake, everyone gets that. But now 8 years of work are down the drain and for what? Are you saying he deserves to have his life work yanked away from him at the last moment over a dumb mistake?

the worst part is it will NEVER get released now since KBM has his hands tied, and nintendo can't just says "whoops we were wrong nvm" or basically have to take legal action even if they changed their mind now that this is out in the open and a big deal. The only chance at it ever seeing the light of day is if it gets leaked by someone who's not KBM or if he tries to make a "statement" and release it anyway
>>
This will not be an issue. They can still upload it to thousands of filesharing websites and nobody would fucking know. Throw a link here or thousands of other anonymous sources. They can still release it very easily with no legal repercussions from nintendo, simply through anonymity. The file size is probably fucking less than 5mb.

so many ways to reword the question so he helps without explicitly saying anything.

shit, I just thought of a better idea. Why not disassemble the game itself and then tweet the game code on bit at a time? nothing stopping him from just saying a bunch of 1's and 0's and if he's caught he could just say he was possessed by the devil or some shit

The fact is, devs flaunted that they would release the full game only AFTER the TPP run, which led to "hype", which led to Kotaku and shitty friends to talk about it. As such it gained too much popularity and bang- here comes the C&D. Instead of flaunting and letting us play the game on through the dead horse that is TPP, they could have just released the thing hours later the run ended, or before it even started. Fuck they could have taken advantage of the peeps who were eager to play Sun/Moon and release Prism BEFORE the official games were out.

No, they deserve to be shut down because they advertised this fucking game all over the internet even after the Uranium case.
>>
>>30946036
They deserve to get shut down after 8 years because they got cocky in the last couple of months and put it on fucking TPP instead of releasing it the second they found out that there was ANY chance of Nintendo wanting "Prism" as a pokemon game name.

They deserve to get shut down because they're letting themselves be shut down instead of saying "No, put this shit in front of a judge or fuck off". They're idiots or cowards for not pressing back and submitting to one of the oldest copyright scare tactics in the book.

They deserve to get shut down because they're retarded and have no guts. If they don't respect themselves and their "8 years of work" so much, then they'll push back instead of taking it lying down. Otherwise, what was even the fucking point of starting in the first place?
>>
>>30945987
>>30946036
In hindsight the devs are definitely salty they didn't release it a week earlier.

Even a small release and we wouldn't be having this discussion. We'd be talking about how shitty the romhack is instead and how we can't believe that this pile of shit took 8 years.
>>
>>30946164
?

Okay, so why does that make it right or smart for nintendo to shut it down?
>>
>>30946180
I dunno it looked pretty fun senpai
>>
>>30946175
I mean I understand why someone like you might 'stand up' for a rom hack, but if Nintendo wanted to, they could literally kill KBM (by bleeding him of his funds until he dies from starvation I mean). He could end up in prison. A romhack isn't worth that. I mean I know Nintendo won't do shit, but unless you're autistic, you would feel differently if it was your ass on the line. I'm autistic and I'd stand up for my romhack so I know how you feel. Normal people wouldn't do that because they're normal.
>>
>>30946196
It's their IP. They can do whatever the fuck they want.

Plus, it's obvious they made money off the TPP thing. Disguise them as donations all you want, but those are dollars Nintendo isn't getting.
>>
>>30938336
>>
>>30938097
good
It was shit anyway
>>
>>30946228
I'm in law and I know that Nintendo doesn't have the guts to follow through. If they did, they'd be smashing down romhacks and romshare sites left and right, but they're not.

So yeah, going exclusively on Nintendo's legal history and past examples, I'd tell them to take me to court or not bother pussyfooting around.
>>
Why not just make your own fucking game?
>>
>>30946229
>It's their IP. They can do whatever the fuck they want.
I don't think you understood my question. Read it again.

>Plus, it's obvious they made money off the TPP thing. Disguise them as donations all you want, but those are dollars Nintendo isn't getting.
Was koolboyman making money off of that? If that's true, why haven't they tried to shut down TPP, which has been making money off of their games for years?
>>
>>30946273
Okay. So let's say they did. Let's say this would be the first time they ever went to court over a romhack. It's not like they aren't breaking precedents right now anyway. Sun/Moon is the first time they banned people for playing early online. It's the first time they banned people for playing roms at all as far as I know.

Even though I agree with you that it's incredibly unlikely, there's still the chance that they could use this as their first romhacking court case.
>>
Reminds me of two other fangame/mod that I was excited for Fighting is Magic and Project Melee that ate C&Ds from their respective IP handlers because reasons.


Cant say I knew much about the game ITT, but I know the feel of so much effort getting thrown outta the window because the project got noticed.
>>
>>30938097
They deserved it desu. I love when this shit happens and I hope the same thing happens to mother 4.

If you're gonna steal someone's idea, don't think you'll get off for free. I hope this serves as a testament to why being original is a good idea.
>>
>>30946346
That's part of my point, actually.

People arguing the "8 years of effort" crap are stupid, because clearly it doesn't matter to the devs half as much as it matters to those faggots. If the devs cared that much, they'd fight it despite the potential (no matter how unlikely) consequences.

But they don't, so they aren't.

If they learn anything from this it's to RENAME things and reskin if you're going to do fan games.

I hope someone is taking notes here.
>>
>>30946386
Mother 4 actually took precautions despite having Itoi's Blessing in that they're renaming it to something else, so it won't get hit because it doesn't actually feature anything that Nintendo can hit them for once the name change is made aside from being "heavily inspired by Earthbound."
In which case, if inspiration was all you needed to go berserk, basically EVERY GAME EVER could be shut down.
>>
>>30946386
Now I think they deserved it, but you're an idiot that's never even looked into game design if you think that anybody gives two shits about Originality.

One of the first things they teach us is that good innovation of existing material and ideas is both cheaper and often more effective than making new material from scratch. You refine what works and discard what doesn't until you get the game you want to make. Then marketing fucks tell you it's shit and make you backtrack to a shittier version but hey that's business for you.
>>
>>30946439
exactly. This is the real key. Stop calling all these fan games "Pokemon _________"
>>
>>30946404
I agree. This was just a side project for them. 8 years of development is not the same as 8 years of continuous development. I have a romhack that's been in the works for 6 years and I haven't worked on it in 4 years. And now I feel sad.

Well, be sure you don't call it "Well known IP name"
>>
>>30945876
>Why not disassemble the game itself

I know at this point you're shitposting, but the game is already disassembled. They took the disassembled version of Crystal, disassembled the old Gold hack version of Prism, formatted the features of the Gold hack to the disassembly's format, and finished the game in that state. They were already planning to release the source code after the game's release if not for the C&D.

It's a crystal romhack, a very detailed one which is cool. It's already finished just isn't allowed to be released.
>>
>>30946416
to be fair, if you're going to use someone else's IP and turn it into your own thing then you need to be prepared for there to be legal repercussions. I think that you should be prepared to accept that what you're doing is at the whim of the original creator. You forfeit the right to complain about getting a C&D as soon as you start a project like this. Same goes for music, remixing, etc. I sample a lot but if someone said "hey, don't use my music" I have no right to complain about it.
>>
>>30946474
It didn't get C&D'd, they just all got scared they would and stopped working on it.

>>30946526
GSC romhack made by some genius/tryhard. The guy also made brown which is probably the best RB romhack that there is.

>>
>>30946439
Fuck off Nintendo.
>>
>>30946565
I agree. And that's likely why the dev team gave in so easily.
>>
>>30946474
There were three brand new characters they were going to add (two clones and one new character with no prior base) and the two clones were like 99% done when they canned everything. There was also a planned 64 Mode that used low-poly models of the characters, new skins, etc.

4.0 was going to be a HUGE release but it got canned and so much stuff got wasted. Wiiztec, the based man that he is, leaked all of it, but the cunts at Smashboard have banned anything that uses assets from the leaks because the PMDT are so salty about it.
>>
>>30946547
>>30946574
Not that guy, but what exactly was supposed to be the draw? Remade plot? Adding in new stuff? Adapting the newer gens?

I don't get it when people get up in arms that's basically a half-baked remake of the game.
>>
let's think of this clearly. Why does nintendo want to shitcan THIS particular hack and not any other version? My guess

a) the hype + trailer promoting pokemon prism looks too official and doesn't go far enough to state it's a fan game
b) the name itself (being called pokemon prism) when they themselves are probably planning a pokemon prism game

Think about it, if you're nintendo and you're actually releasing a game called pokemon prism, do you want there to be trailers and shit out there promoting a totally unrelated game? I'm guessing no, so they took it, the website, and the trailer down and the game itself is just collateral damage.

If the game is somehow leaked I doubt nintendo will even give a shit. They'll just be happy there's no longer any promotional material out there that could get people to confuse it with a real nintendo game. They also don't want his trailer/website coming up when people google "pokemon prism" if it's going to be an official game. Whether the game gets released or not isn't their primary concern. Now that the supplemental material is all removed nintendo will be happy and likely not bother anyone.

Nintendo isn't doing this just to be evil, guys. If the ROMhack doesn't affect them they literally couldn't give less of a shit whether it's released or not.

And of course they can't just outright say it's because the name is called pokemon prism and they don't want it to get confused with the actual pokemon prism, so they pull the "trademark" card.
>>
>>30946626
It's a completely new region and story. It's basically just a new Pokemon game but using the gen 2 engine has a base. Had trainer customisation and new minigames and stuff too.
>>
>>30946626
It was a custom region with new Gym Leaders, towns, items, etc. It had a lot of later-Gen Pokémon and music (mostly Sinnoh for the latter), and also had the custom region from Pokémon Brown (the creator's first hack) as postgame.

Prism is basically a sequel to Brown, and Brown is a very popular and well-known hack, pretty much one of the first full custom region hacks to exist. People have been waiting for Prism almost as long as Half-Life 3.
>>
>>30946626

desu here and now, in 2016, when fan games and indie games are such a common thing it's probably no longer a huge deal. But in 2008 when it was first started it was a bigger deal since there were very few "full hacks" that changed everything and added new pokemon to older gens.
>>
Nintendo are based desu.

>Spend 8 years making a game
>Get shut down less than a week before release

Attention seeking faggot shouldn't have announced a release date and just released it.
>>
>>30946628
>And of course they can't just outright say it's because the name is called pokemon prism
They CAN, actually, and even do it behind the scenes so as not to leak sensitive info to the public, but that opens another can of worms legally.

If you're Nintendo, and you say "Look anon I don't like that you made Pokemon Prism because I have rights to Pokemon and *I* wanted to make Pokemon Prism", I can legally say "Okay, I'll change the name", and that's the end of it. You can't press further and you can't threaten me with legal action unless you want to open BRAND NEW legal procedures with brand new reasoning AND ALSO prove that this somehow came up between the time the last time this was settled and the point of legal procedure being started again.

It's way easier for a company to just say "Look just tear it down or we're going to pursue damages and shit" than it is to actually give reasoning.

Are the cries for the new pokemon updated or just the old placeholder cries ala ledyba cry on gardevoir?

>>
>>30946740
>warchamp7 killed ProjectM
What? How?
>>
>>30946724
They ripped the PCM audio playback feature from Pokémon Yellow (it was what allowed the Pikachu cries to exist in that game) and used it to play recordings of later-Gen cries, so the former.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysHsnMYNv7Y

You can hear the cries for multiple later-Gen Pokémon here, for example.
