    Ai has definitely made this situation a bit more problematic for them. There’s mutiple entire chracter models trained on only like, Zelda and mixed with other models, well. Let’s just say Zelda will do whatever

    I don’t view this content myself. But people should be able to. Nintendo is driving me away due to their behavior and I’m losing interest in the company.

    I doubt I’ll buy their next console. I have less time than I did back then, but if I’m on the line about it, I’ll say no based on their recent behavior.

    And I pledge to never buy a Nintendo product again.

    I can’t believe I am actually saying this, but Nintendo, you make me wish I could cause more financial damage to your company than I am legally able to.

      Pirat their stuff so they get more mad. Make hentai so they get even more mad. Send it to them by mail so they get a stroke from high blood pressure.

    Oh yeah because this stuff is just everywhere on the internet /s.

    You have to go looking for this stuff. No one feels uncomfortable by it because the only times people would see it is if they’re googling it or already a part of a community. This is just Nintendo smashing the dmca button because their lawyers are bored

    I feel like a lot of people are missing the context that this was prompted by a Mario cosplayer sending inappropriate messages to a minor 😅

    Nintendo is dogshit about their IP, but like I can’t really fault them for being upset that someone used the family friendly nature of one of their properties to facilitate an inappropriate interaction with a child. If I were Nintendo I’d be pretty unhappy about that too

        Yes, the cartoon plumber man who tries to rescue his girlfriend from the cartoon dino turtle monster thing is family friendly 😅

        He’s a character from a game thats widely popular with children.

      It doesn’t help that the article takes a 90 degree turn to ramble about Nintendo IP rule34 which seems entirely irrelevant to the actual issue.

      Also the IP aggression isn’t entirely their fault, Japanese Copyright law requires companies to be waaaaaaaay more aggro than their American counterparts.

      It actually caused such a controversy on YouTube a few years ago that YouTube had to release a feature to individual creators to selectively block their videos in certain countries so that they could avoid the risk of getting copy-striked because their video aired where companies are pushed to hit everyone they can with cease and desist letters.

        Interesting, I actually didn’t know that, thanks for the additional context! I still find it frustrating but understanding the issue better is always a plus

    Does Nintendo own either Sonic or Pikachu? If so, Chris Chan has maybe days before they come for her.

      Not Sonic, but they have an exclusive games publishing agreement with Gamefreak for Pikachu. So yeah, Chris Chan’s goose is cooked. Well, more than it already is.
