I have a work colleague who's really into pokemon and he told me that Nintendo's copyright is absolutely ridiculous. Like, they not only copyrighted pokeballs, but the exact number of times that they shake when used. It's insane. And as everyone could have predicted, they're using their power to crush the competition over insignificant things.
Nintendo is actively trying to kill emulation in any way possible. Nintendo has killed countless fangames. Nintendo tried to get rid of any artists who tried to draw Pokemons. Old games are delisted, then sold back at full price. Pokemon games run at like <10FPS.
Not saying the others are good either, but Nintendo is on a league of its own.

And people will keep fan-boying for Nintendo, even though they proved again and again they are the most anti-consumer gaming company out there.

I wonder which number is higher, the amount of fangames killed by Nintendo or the amount of franchises and studios bought and buried by EA?
