Well maybe some company should have sued. Maybe also just pulled out of the market entirely

Stop selling products in the US citing trumps bullshit. Play the PR game against him. He’s fantastically bad at it. Argue Trump is bad for your brand, the US costs more to do business in than it’s worth, that their economy is failing anyway so you’ll Never get that money back. Just swing wild. Even with the villain Nintendo became today, they could pull this off

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.

If Nintendo sues the US government for copyright infringement lemmy's collective head would explode trying to figure out who to root 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...

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.

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.

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)
