See but I’ve never heard Nintendo supporting genocide actively.
Like, yes, they’re a corporation, they love money, they do stupid things to get money, but they’re not doing nearly the same shit as other companies I hate.
Or if they are, I haven’t heard of it, it’s all been game key cards.
The game key card thing feels like a clinton-blowjob level scandal while some other people are doing a whole genocide.
This. Nintendo went so far to try patenting relative physics in games (I think that one failed, but they do hold a patent for throwing balls at someone to catch them). And if you wonder why you never see smaller round menus in games for conversation selection (but mostly a rather clunky list instead), that patent is held by EA or Bioware due to Mass Effecr. For a fucking circular conversation menu.
I can’t eat as much as I want to vomit. This whole system is just perverted to the core and completely stifles both culture AND economy. They just register all this shit because patent trolling is also a business to them. It’s both profitable and weaponizable.
Nintendo forced palworld to remove flying creature riding, they have the power (at least in Japan) to remove riding flying creatures in any game. Pokemon wasn’t even close to being the first game to implement something like that
What percentage of responsibility for that genocide goes to Microsoft? What percentage goes to Ford or GM or whoever sells them cars? What percentage goes to AWS? What percentage goes the people who make the roads they use?
I mean, the people in charge of Nintendo now aren’t those people.
In 50 years, if Microsoft had gone co-op, withdrawn from genocide, removed telemetry, and like half a dozen other things, due to a change in leadership, I’d also not hold that future Microsoft as at fault for current Microsoft.
I also don’t hold Volkswagen responsible for the Holocaust, presently. Just the emissions fraud (and maybe more that I can’t currently recall).
Those leaders are still Japanese. A country notorious for ignoring and downplaying their atrocities. It’s like forgiving a Holocaust denier because they weren’t alive to drive the train.

Am I missing something?
I hate them more than average because they e.g. abuse their patent “rights” to the max, more than other companies.

I love that every german says “Ich kann nicht so viel fressen wie ich kotzen will”

Who says I’m gonna assign percentages? Like, what the fuck even is that bullshit.
They’re all responsible.
Cool beans, guess what you’re responsible for then?
If genocide is something you care about I wouldn’t be defending a Japanese company that existed in imperial Japan.
