I found a thread on 4chan dealing with the matter of Nintendo and their "new guidelines" censorship which caused the banning of games such as Neptunia from being released in the West.
Digging out 4chan anons found that multiple games were already being banned by this but that the culprits seem to be Nintendo of America (NoA) and Nintendo of Europe (NoE) possibly doing the fuck whatever they want without Nintendo HQ actually escalating on this censorship.
the thread is quite long but the discussion inevitably merges with payment processor censorship in Japan and the escalation which is not being talked yet about the houses of lawmakers against granting vote rights to foreigners being set on fire.
To get full information i suggest taking time and read the thread but I warn that is a bit long.
the great totalitarian sodomy of Japan has begun, globohomo does not like when the people escape from their escapism.

mayor points from the thread:
greentext:
Nintendo of America bans nep from releasing in the west
bikini schizo and macaco spam the news to shit on tendies
anon starts digging thanks to the news and finds out this has been happening with multiple games that had western releases planned since at least march
brings it up in one of the bikini schizo threads
bikini schizo immediately vanishes, macaco starts avoiding these threads and stops mentioning censorship in unrelated nintendo threads
anon wonders why bikini schizo disappeared and checks the archive

two videos about the good old, get woke go broke I found on odysee. I think is good stuff. the first video just explains the basics, the latter video is a parallelism between people taking the blue pill to stay in the matrix and people against free speech to stay in the confortable world of lie that they made real in their mind

Reddit allows you to visualize up to 1000 threads in a subreddit, older threads will be left out.
you can eventually scavenge some older threads with the search function but the result is lackluster.
this tool allows you to set specific timeframes and read posts made from that specific timeframe and also to use search terms if you want to narrow the research further.
Some four randos made an NFT platform that scraped up every song on Spotify (including music from big wigs like Disney, Nintendo, Marvel, and John Lennon) and turned it into an NFT without the original artists' permission, promising that buying the NFT will magically give a piece of the profits to the original creators
within 48hrs of news about this coming to light, entire PROs and distributors have gone bugfuck insane, have used their connections to stop the website being hosted on AWS, and are sending their lawyers in by parachute to sue the absolute living shit out of the people who tried to pull this scam off.
-
this completely ravaged any possible positive NFT sentiment from musicians.
-
the guys running that platform (who put their identities on the open on LinkedIn) responded with absolute out-of-touch posts on Twitter, acting like all of this is perfectly normal, they are getting carpet ratios.

basically, the game is censored but the uncensored patch comes as a free DLC so one can go around Paypal prudors. the patch is on GoG aswell and not on the website of the game makers like it use to be for steam

short resume possible because is 21 page and is long
Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman are legends of fantasy literature. they raised millions of fans into this genre like parents in the 30+ years of their prolific carriers.
When published their first book when young, they made a very bad contract that gave the copyright ownership of their work to the company, despite Dragonlance being de facto theirs.
when the company was later bought. the IP ownership was also bought
currently, wizard of the coast own Dragonlance IP, and their parent company is Hasbro.
M & T had limitations but were free still to write books and rolled in money so they never care seriously about tacking the IP backs in their hand. despite having ground to do so. (as it would be a titanic legal battle)
in short, they write, pay, and publish everything by themselves
but the company own IP and the rights to reviews and ask for changes. they need to give permission every time if M & T want to write a book. otherwise, M & T could get sued.
M & T want to write their final books, the sum of their carriers
they ask the company permission to write books. the company accept. this happen around 2017
M & T make a deal with a publisher. that will take care of printing and shit. not sure of the details but the publisher here pays M & T in exchange they get money when the books sell. (you read it down why this is important)
hasbro or wizard of the coast boomer ceo, whatever, have fell for the social justice trap. during the period from when the deal was made and now, the Company has increasingly removed old employees and hired absolute woke trash
For January 2020 first book of the trilogy is ready to be printed, but big batch of woke trash is hired, the old reviewers are fired and new reviewers are hired
Woke trash employees went on a total rampage over the company products, ban cards, place offense, and racism warning over everything printed so far. etc. you know the stuff you got from the news.
Woke review the new book of M & T again.
Woke demand change to wokenize it. and meet the new standards of sensibility reading (fucking jesus christ)
M & T really want to publish the book, so they cave to all the requests. (real kneeling 100). the story at this point is already ruined forever
The woke still deemed it not enough. actually, the woke deemed all the Dragonlance IP as problematic. they in truth don't want any more books to be published at all
Woke call M & T for a meeting.
Woke spit on their face that no book will be published
M & T reply that this is a breach of contract.
Woke pull out 3.000.000 IQ move and state that they have the right to request changes but if they physically never perform the request. the books will sit in a limbo not being published forever yet it would not be breach of contract. also claim that if M & T continue pressing they would be in breach of contract instead.
Woke also make back-deal communication with the same publisher M & T have a deal with for these books. in the fear of no books getting published the publisher, to cut their loss, stop sending M & T payments
On top of it, if no book is published. M & T get to be in breach of contract toward the same publisher. they would be liable for millions in damage.
Basically: literally who, woke trash tries to cancel legends of fantasy literature.
M & T has their lawyers reviewing this shit.
Lawyers report that is absolute bullshit. 100% breach of contract and they should be sued to oblivion.
M & T sue Karens of the koast for 30 millions damage and ask the judge to force them to objectively review the books and to not blocking the publications
