@game.central: the ongoing patent infringement lawsuit filed by nintendo and the pokemon company against palworld has a new update, namely that nintendo have now patented the concept of summoning characters to fight other ones - this could spell trouble for non-palworld games that use this feature should the judge rule in nintendo's favour #nintendo #pokemon #palworld #nintendoswitch #gaming

there are already dozens of existing games with a mechanic like that I don't understand how this patent was ever granted

Pretty sure Shin Megami Tensei had that summoning mechanic way before Pokemon.

I'm not sure how a judge would uphold this. This is a thing in so many games and has been for decades

if only nitendo put the same amount of effort in making their games as their lawyers desperately try to ensure no competitors. we might actually get good games then.

Patents like this shouldn’t be allowed. This is the nemesis system all over again.

palworld did actually steal monster designs, their pals are really really similar to the Nintendo designs so that part is valid, the rest is ridiculous

Disney is about to see this and make a patent on “graphical images on a digital screen”

Nintendo isn’t against creature collectors, there’s dozens on the Nintendo eshop that Nintendo has never had an issue with. They’re against palworld blatantly ripping off pokemon designs and gameplay features. Proving they stole designs is near impossible in court though, thus the patents. Palworld got what they deserved imo, could have made a great game without having to copy anything. I doubt Nintendo uses these patents in court ever again

Do they understand how many existing games there are with that mechanic? This whole case needs to be thrown out, and The Pokemon Company needs to be charged a fine for wasting the court's time.

Megami Tensei invented monster capturing before pokemon even came out.
