To bad US copyright is only sometimes enforced. You ain’t a US record label so good luck.
Everyone who got tariffed needs to drop the us copyright act. Its so cucked to have this in exchange for free trade then get tariffed. Then have the US blatantly disregard copyright and in front of everyone but still enforce it on non American companies.
If Nintendo sues the US government for copyright infringement lemmy’s collective head would explode trying to figure out who to root for.
X3, the enemy of my enemy is my friend I hate the US faarr more then I hate Nintendo,at least with Nintendo you can just ignore their products or emulate them its far harder to get away from a country
I would hope the US wins and copyright dies.
It will never happen because that’s not what U.S. courts are for.
Would be funny as hell if it got them kicked out of okinawa, though.
There’s a morejapabese version of this. From a Godzilla movie I believe.
I already said in another post that all those tech billionaires LotR-“inspired” surveillance companies will turn me pro IP-law. All those fascist doomsday fuckers can do is steal ideas.
IP law will never actually fight against them. Not in ways that matter. Only ending capital.
So every book should now be in a solarpunk setting so they start copying those ideas?
Let them fight, I can root for both sides to lose
I believe there is a traditional Japanese meme for this.
So Captain Bonespurs McSyphilis can freely use Nintendo IP to troll libs online with no consequence whatsoever, but Normie McRegularPerson can pour their heart and soul into making a fan game, fan art, or modding consoles, and they literally will be arrested, thrown in jail, convicted of a felony and be forced to pay Nintendo for the rest of their lives as a literal wage slave.
That’s United States of America. The country of free speech, and the land of opportunities. The democracy every country should strive for!
« When you’re famous, they let you do it »…
Well then Nintendo, you should invoke Luigi.
the moment nintendo allowed them to use pokemon memes, its too late.
They got tariff money and tariff refunds, they’ll be alright…
Speaking of Nintendo that is…

Taylor? Isn’t she a Democrat who Trump has a beef with?

Doesn’t look like she likes it. 3 audio removed from vids: https://www.nme.com/news/music/taylor-swifts-august-removed-from-donald-trump-tiktok-post-that-joked-she-would-be-super-excited-about-its-use-3961488
He’s trolling her because she doesn’t like him. Wrong end of stick.

So you’re pretty sure of stuff you’re very wrong about and don’t wanna check your facts. It’s very MAGA for someone so anti-Trump.

What about JK Rowling she seems like she would get along with Trump?
Also do something about it Japan, empty words mean nothing to useless babies.

When Trump uses American copyrighted stuff, he gets sued.
If Japan wants Trump to stop they have to start a war.
That’s what Trump wants. Another war.
Nintendo is fully capable of suing Trump for it, they just don’t like suing people who can afford attorneys fees.
Trump can’t afford discovery. Too much truth for him.
The us government has a base in Japan. They can be asked to leave. This would piss the CIA off so much.
Fuckers took that into account. A pull out leaves that side of the contraband network still functional, as it does after every pull-out from any CIA operation.
The actual military might be peeved, but probably be secretly glad they don’t have to pretend to police their troops on leave from also eating the Japanese crayons and committing heinous crimes.
Pokemon, Mario, the IPs of some relevance yet for the youth. Which US alphabet soup agency do you suppose put their use forward? It may be as infuriating as if it was ‘just for the lols’, but it absolutely isn’t just for the lols.
The entire thing is part of the currently ongoing digital offshoot of COINTELPRO.
Feels more gladio than cointelpro.
Nintendo would like everyone to forget about Jynx from Pokemon and nearly every opponent in the Punch-Out series aside from Mike Tyson himself.
(they’re all racist stereotypes)
That’s the Japanese version of inclusion. I’ve seen their deliberate attempts at racism and trust me, you’d know.
