Eat shit kike enabler, 14 years was reasonable but this shit is egregious.
End copyright.

Based Nintendo BTFO this shitty game and its incel players

It's similar enough to Maker 2's 4-player mode that it was almost definitely done to protect that in the short-term.
But in the long-term, yeah, it's entirely possible. Pretty much every big Mario Maker streamer that also bumped Royale strongly urged Nintendo to think about it. People would want it, for sure.

Too many corners to keep track of there, I think.
Are any publishers/developers other than Nintendo and Squeenix known for doing it this often?

give one good reason nintendo or any company really should not be allowed to protect their IPs without using ad hominems and strawmen.

I was thinking that. Conveniently, the threads just started going pretty much dead today. It's not the biggest deal in the universe, this flavor of the week ran its course and it was a good one.
I wonder if it's possible to convince the creator to keep the score data live and make it public so we can see who leads on wins and kills. Would be neat.

Isn't that client-sided? I doubt he would have it.

Yeah, sure.

Doesn't actually serve the stated purpose (allowing authors to make money off their works). Instead you just have giant conglomerates that own the rights to every bit of culture made in the past hundred years.

Yeah, why not? If they can do a better job.

>I hope this team keeps going and tries out their own 8-bit-browser-based ish royale game

SEGA would've unironically let it be if it was a Sonic thing.

For better and worse.

Exactly. If he wants to make a platformer that can't be sued then he should look at other original platformers like Sonic and Jazz Jackrabbit. And countless other platformers he could draw inspiration from.

Because he thought he had 'changed' it enough from your normal SMB games that it's considered a transformative work. Granted, if he was a smart man, he would have instantly know that bullshit wouldn't have worked in the first place and now he had made himself known as the guy that steals IP's and tries to think he's smarter than IP laws.

This. The moment money is involved somehow, everything changes.

IP laws are for niggers and no one cares about them, even corporations when they're not the ones wielding legal threats. He'll be fine.

Sonic royale when? that would be fun too

Tell my why they don't host their shit somewhere else? It is NoA as I understand. They have no power n Russia for example. Or Japan.

Maybe one day someone will do a Sonic Royale. I'd love to play that. You can even combine the best of the Genesis-era levels in the same engine since they're similar enough.
I remember playing Sonic 2's competitive 2-player mode with my brothers and sisters for years. It had a very similar feel to Mario Royale, rushing through but trying to learn as you go.

All those media outlets reporting on the game, giving it a lot of publicity. That was when it all went downhill.

Yeah, but remember it's still Sega handling it so even if it's a great idea, it somehow turns into a bad idea.

The money isn't. But you get a chose in action. The layman's legal ignorance is astounding.

maybe some Russian/Chinese codemonkey will get keen and make their own version. They do a lot for just cents, this has gotta be a goldmine.
Whatever they make would be jank as fuck but it was jank anyway.

They really should do it. It would be easy as hell to implement, at least in the 2D styles where rendering so many Marios isn't a problem. Their 4-player mode already reflects some of the principles with the option to make it 'PvP'. It would just be a matter of expanding on that, they'll have plenty of data on how popular it is, and I imagine a lot of people are going to love the 4-player mode for similar reasons that they loved Royale.

Alright everyone, I'm going to give a rundown of the people who caused this game to die, or contributed to its downfall

>Tyrone

The main leader of the downfall, the first hacker, and the primary troll. He is the most likely person to have contacted Nintendo since he got banned for using nigger as a username, even after being banned for
cheating.

>Chad hacker

I am not entirely sure. He posted a couple tweaks to Tyrone's hacks, and then disappeared

>Yea ForumsPN

Second in command, and was in it from day 1.
He went onto the Discord after being banned, and lied about him being banned for saying "nigger". The moderators later made a whole thread on him, and tried to DOX him. They also later called him a schizophrenic, and also said you could not be banned for using nigger as a username, yet Tyrone claims different. He was also called out being a teenager, but this has been proven false.
P.S., me, the poster of this, is Yea ForumsPN. I am also the one who typically replies in correct English, but not the guy who mass replies to other people.

>Moderators

While I forgot their names, they have been confirmed to be teenagers, weeaboos, and most likely autistic, and suffer with gender dysphoria. They were also given an undisclosed share of money generated from the servers on the game, and from Patreon.

>InfernoPlus

He never really talked to his audience, and just updated everyone on Twitter and his user. I have yet to hear from him, even after asking him about the situation of the game, and the money being made off of it. He just coded it, nothing more really.

if no money was involved then he would have been well within his rights, Nintendo is known for it's aggressive legal threats for copywrite so it's likely nothing on that front would have changed.

That's because Sonic was never good.

Wrong. Almost 2000 players was the highest I've ever seen it go, and I'm sure it probably was higher at some point

Hackers didn't ruin a fucking thing my friend. Did hackers copy Nintendo's IP? Stay salty though.

I wouldn't exactly call that popular either

especially since he didn't even bother posting the dmca, he could be grossly exaggerating what happened. the motherfucker begged like the jew he is for people to donate to his shitty patreon for "muh servers"

gaming was never hobbyist.
But I am sure people who can't make money off or even properly take credit for games they have to make after they get off their 9-5 will be really great!

It's damn good for a game that was days old.

It happened because he was taking money. If this project remained free and he either hosted it for free, or people offered him free hosting (instead of cash,) then it'd still be up.
But you can't do something like this and then go "donations, please." Even if your intention is to solely use them to pay for server hosting.

I honestly can't tell if you understand my sarcasm or not. but there is no good "hobbyist" made game.

Does anyone have the original website files perchance? Original HTML file, plus all the JS, plus all the CSS, plus any images and whatever. There's a guy in the Discord who has written a Python server that he thinks might work as a backend for playing this game. You can download the server here: github.com/Igoorx/PyRoyale

1) You need Python 2 (update to the latest version to be safe)
2) You need to install twisted (using pip is probably easiest)
3) You need to install autobahn too (again, pip is probably easiest)
4) Then you can just run the server

I tried getting the website files off archive.org but it's giving me gyp and I can't be bothered to work out why.

AM2R and SM64HD were taken down because it was becoming largely popular and used for shitposting Nintendo’s actual products

Of fucking course they would be shut down, a company would definitely take action if it becomes a threat to them

Wasn't there a point where Nintendo didn't renew the copyrights to a ton of their nes library? So people could legally resell their shit in those 1000 in 1 pirate carts?

You guys are aware your referencing take downs that happened before Nintendo’s new policies right?

i am so glad i pirate all of this shit company's fag switch games

debatable. I think Ninty is just too lazy to work with the community or license for a $1 so they use it rather than lose it. point was Patreon had nothing to do with it.

Where do you hope repeating that goes?

So someone made a popular game and already did the marketing and everything? Why dont Nintendo just give him/them a few shekels and bank in on it themselves? Why was this taken down and things like the ALTTP Randomizer are up and running just fine?

this. I often wondered if with shit like this or AM2R, they can like use DMCA threats to force a sale for cheap, then port the game to switch and make mad bank.

That is for youtube content. Nintendo lets you freely profit from footage from their games without the shitty creators program so long as you are making something unqiue (which is why the xtended music channel got hit, they didn't upload gameplay and rather just the music rips).

of course that new policy only applies if it's content nintendo likes youtube.com/watch?v=AKtaFU2ky9E

Holy shit, do you even understand the level of Stockholm syndrome you're on? Yeah, I'm sure the 50 years after the creator's death that Disney spent billions lobbying for is to protect US from THEM!

They had legit cause with AM2R causing brand confusion since they were already working on a Metroid II remake for 3DS, but the SM64HD dmca claim could have been safely ignored.

I mean, after all the shit they got for taking down Streets of Rage: Remake, they have to let fans make games.

...Except for the part where when the fans make a better game than they could (Sonic Mania) Sega legit wants to sabotage any future fan projects.

>Yeah and then all the big companies will just steal from you indie retards, keep pushing for it
so some big company will try to make an AAA undertale game? Good luck.

in the very near future the money will be meaningless, but not because of electronic centralization. once the nations of the west are engulfed in civil wars, whatever their money once was will be worthless. look at venesuela and its currency. that is the world's future, not cyberpunk centralization or digital money. these are just temporary measures, pipe dreams of a civilization in its death throes. rome 2.0, here we come.

The big Mario Maker streamers were promoting it. It would have become really huge quickly, then the mainstream news would pick it up and 100k people would be on it. Nintendo had to get ahead of that. If you want to blame someone blame the streamers.

What's stopping somebody else from doing the same thing, but just hosting it private like? Think sad panda.

It will just be a mode for Mario Maker 2.

Mark. My. Words.

Again, why?. Everybody here knows how Nintendo is, this is just pointless to get mad about.

not that user, but Velcro?

Everyone, including the developer, saw this coming. That does not mean this doesn't suck.

see Though velcro's patent has expired, actually, so it's a little different there anyway.

It actually is true. Basically if a jury/judge decides that you haven't really been doing anything with your trademark or making any effort to protect it, they can rule that you've essentially forfeited the grounds to enforce it.

This case is slightly different since DC didn't actually hold the trademark to Captain Marvel, they just tried to block Marvel from trademarking it, but the court ruled that since DC hadn't been doing shit with the Captain Marvel trademark or making any effort to go after knockoffs, they had forfeited the right to the trademark.

It's definitely not an easy thing to happen, but the mere fact that it's even possible scares the shit out of companies like Disney and Nintendo who see their IPs as the sole thing of inherent value, so they go way overboard to aggressively pursue just so that it would be literally impossible for them to ever be legally out maneuvered. It's the copyright equivalent of being a doomsday prepper-- almost certainly unnecessary, but on the off chance a day does come where someone counter-sues them, they're well prepared.

artificially inflates the price of goods, stifles creativity and competition

cheaters ruined it anyways

Glad I played it while it was up

Because if people stop caring, Nintendo keeps going. At least fan outrage might slow them down a little bit. The fan anger is the only reason we got any sort of faithful tepig 2, for a solid example.

I think it's you that doesn't understand the difference actually. See
keydifferences.com/difference-between-trademark-and-patent.html

>They refused to give me specifics
Why is this allowed? If you're going to say something infringes on your copyright, you should have to say exactly how it does so.

Third time isn't the charm, apparently. You are also talking about trademark, not copyright.

What is going on in this pointless thread?
The discussion about this should be centered around Nitendo's lawyers basically being butthurt that they got dabbed on when all mario references were removed.

You can't copyright game mechanics. Nintendo lawyers were in the wrong.

user you can't expect a multi-million dollar company to make some effort, we should've a system of strike down and stay down too.

Now you're comparing trademark and... patent for some reason? If Nintendo lost every single trademark it owned, this game would still be infringement because the actual gameplay - the product itself - is a copyright. Not a trademark, not a patent.

What the fuck are you on about. If I want to make a picture of mario eating a turd while getting fucked in the ass by yoshi Im going to fucking do it and post it wherever I want. Corporations shouldnt just be in their legal right to claim anything resembling their "property". FUCK THIS GAY SHIT

Yes. It was patented. The patent has now expired.

But then there'd be no reason for anyone to create anything original at all, since there's no downside to just slapping already successful brands on your product, or even just straight up making exact replicas of other products or works. Why create a better platformer when anyone can just use Mario's code and brand name for free with no downside?

Though on the other hand, maybe completely devaluing intellectual property would make consumers no longer attached to brands and the companies that own them, but to specific inventors and creators.

Why the fuck don't these retards release this shit without any way to contact them, throw it into the wild and let people set up their own servers.

>You can't copyright game mechanics. Nintendo lawyers were in the wrong.
But in the US you can scare people like this since even if you do win the case, the multi-million dollar company won't be forced to pay your expenses, even though they were in the wrong, and you will be broke as fuck at the end.

i feel like the post was fairly clear. it has nothing to do with him having a Patreon.

Both of those things had projects Nintendo were working on (Samus Returns and SM64 on the Wii U eshop) of course they'd take that down.

Cave Story is a great one off the top of my mind. Fuck you corporate apologists. You kill everything good

IP laws were created as a compromise, for specific purpose. They aren't natural like property, since you can't own an idea, while you can own a brick. They were made to recoup industries where the main products were non-physical, to facilitate creation of such products. They create temporary artificial monopolies, you could say.
And they have overreached. Not only is their main purpose now to tie a piece of culture to a corporation forever, with no right to transformation in the culture around it even in perspective, the people who actually created the ideas frequently lose ownership of them too by default if they want to do anything with them. Trading IPs and keeping IPs has become more important than making use of them.
They were created for a specific purpose, and they're used for another, and treated like inherent rights too. As such, the laws are inadequate to their intended purpose. This also shows in a thousand weird situations just like that one. Mario should long be in public domain, just like Mickey Mouse. Now they're both firmly in public consciousness, people grew up on them, yet they can't transform them and enrich the culture.
It's convenient to corporations, though.

I brought that up because the velcro example I brought up (and bandaid another user mentioned) were patents, not (just) trademarks. Velcro in particular had a lengthy legal battle to try and protect their patented velcro design as public use of the word 'velcro' as a generic term resulted in argument about whether it should be a public domain product/design as well. It's actually quite interesting, I recommend you look into it.

>the actual gameplay - the product itself - is a copyright
No it isn't, you can copyright isolated small mechanics like Crazy Taxi's arrow, and that's it.

This.

No shit. Its the same faggots who think that emulation is illegal. They like using threats because it seems to work. See the Great Giana Sisters.

I'm aware. People should be up in arms that lawyers are bullying the little guy unjustly.

No, but they can technically take credit for small indie games like that and then proceed to sue the fuck out of the original makers with the best lawyers money can buy. IP laws are a necessary evil against shit like that.

Why do people say this? In the eyes of the law it means nothing, copyright infringement is copyright infringement regardless of if you make money. And I really doubt Nintendo gives a fuck if he is making money or not

>inb4 "fuck transformation, I would play it American Mcgee's Alice if it were called something else."

>now
Where have you been since... the mid-80's, really?
Nintendo are notorious for being aggressive about copyright protection. They created some of the first forms of DRM to keep anyone from even making games for the NES that weren't approved by them.

This is the sad truth

Nintendo, please hire this man and make an official Mario Royale DLC for Mario Maker 2.

lol
store.steampowered.com/app/200900/Cave_Story/
also metroidvania would not exist in your imaginery world so...

If a thousand people create their own Mario games, 990 of them will suck. Either only Nintendo will be considered to be making "true" Mario, or people will lose interest in Mario entirely, and Nintendo will have to use something else to attract people.
It's exactly all about brands, at least past the first several years.

This, i don't think whether there's money involved or not, they will still be bitching around about anything involving them, no matter what.

>I mean, after all the shit they got for taking down Streets of Rage: Remake, they have to let fans make games.

Exactly this. Take Touhou for example, anyone can make a Touhou game. But because of that, games don't become successful just for being Touhou. People will judge the game by how good it is instead of the brand. There's a lot of shit Touhou fan games out there but they are mostly ignored, people talk about the good ones. Also people get bored of stuff eventually so people will want new brands and characters anyway

The original release is free made by one dude. You can still get it.

the orher hand isn't a thing though. Nintendo getting creative cause they cant bank on mario anymore wont happen either. because Making a brand new IP will be even more expensive, and will garnish 0 return since they have no way of protecting it. Everyone will just hope someone else makes a game for them to sell.

That begs the question, how much does transformation even matter to established characters?
Is there really anything gained by making versions of Mario and Mickey Mouse that you can't do the same with with a proxy, and have the advantage of owning the idea yourself?
How many versions of Superman, Sherlock Holmes, Flash Gordon and Tarzan have been that are just slightly altered versions of those characters, but had creative new twists on them? Would those be really any better if they had the original characters' names instead? Doesn't it actually stifle creativity and discourage transformative takes if you don't get to benefit from the ownership of your work?

this has been disproven time and time again. off the top of my head, nintendo shut down AM2R, 3D Zelda, and Pokemon Uranium. none of these took profits.

But then Nintendo themselves are being hurt because there's no protection to keep people from devaluing their creation, which is an argument in favor of ownership.
Unless you think that any idea or invention should be automatically public property, and that an artist or inventor should work solely for the public good instead of for their own profit.

The next option is to go actual court and we all know inferno doesn't have the cash to actually get a good enough lawyer.

It's at the point where people should shut the fuck up about fan projects so the news never catches on and they stand a chance of staying alive

>all the nintendies ITT getting excited about Nintendo making their own BR game
Pathetic

What a stupid post. Network load has nothing to do with console performance. Plus Smash is a fighting game with full 3D models and environments where every one of the 70+ characters is different, Mario is a game made for an 8-bit processor and 2kb of RAM where every player is the exact same character with only two possible actions, like five frames of animation and whose position is determined solely by an x,y coordinate.

Which is exactly why they do it. More big corporations who don't really have a case threatening to sue anyway just to scare people into compliance.

Nah, it was the clickbait authors and twitch streamers that got it too much attention. If it stayed pretty much entirely inside of Yea Forums it'd still be here.

Companies are pretty unlikely to actually pursue legal action in these kind of cases, it would be needlessly expensive and merely issuing a C&D is enough to prove that they're protecting their IP.
You wouldn't even need a good lawyer, it's just that IP lawyers are naturally expensive.

Companies just bank on the fact that these people, being individuals, wouldn't risk losing money and will take the safest option.
I'm looking forward to the day that someone has the balls to stand up to it and just ignore the notice. Nintendo would most likely not even follow up. They basically just have a department devoted to issuing takedowns all day long, and if someone didn't respond to them, at best they'd report it to an actual lawyer who would say "we have much more important shit to deal with than one guy, just make a scarier letter and see if he stops"

Someone recreate the game and make it open source. That way people can self host.

Wait sorry. For a second I thought your argument against IP and for "hobbyist" based industry was a subpar game of which the creator owns the IP and uses it to license it out for ports and PC sales as to make money. Of which would not exist without the IP of Nintendo or Konami and used game creation tools that are protected IP that were made for profit on hardware that would not exist without ip protection to be played on hardware that would not exist without ip protection. clearly I am missing something though as the massive retard in this exchange.

It depends, I think. The difference between a legacy character and an original character is a murky thing, since nothing is truly original, and yet few things are completely copycat.
Talking about Holmes, the difference between the character himself and his expy seems to be in overall feel of the character, in using Holmes' background and his mindshare as instrument in writing and in how much you can transform the character without raising eyebrows.
Ultimately, I think asking whether or not using a legacy character or copycat is more transformative is kinda senseless when both are available, and it's for the author to decide in the first place. If somebody is forced to use a copy instead of original and his work is better off from it, it's subjective whether or not culture won or lost from it, or even the author, and it's his choice. However, forbidding transformation of legacy characters destroys entire concepts, and so it objectively stifles culture, by suppressing works that would have been made.

It was fun while it lasted. God bless the developer.

I hope he makes a sonic royale. Sega is chill most of time with their IPs so i dont think they will go after him unless hes dumb enough to put his patreon on the front page.

You can't copyright game mechanics. He could totally change all the graphics and re-release it.

Maybe he should put on his big boy panties and actually try making his own levels too. Scary idea I know.

Hey hey hey, Sonic Mania happened, and Sega handled it well

Legitimate issues come with specific requests because they're legitimate. "We want you to stop doing this specifically." If someone just wants you gone, the threats are vague in hopes that you disappear or overextert yourself far beyond any legal responsibility you may have had.

I run a business and have literally been threatened over 100 times. I know when someone's blowing smoke. I've literally told lawyers that I fucked their mom, over the phone. Never hear from them again. It's a great feeling.

they cant copyright game mechanics

I think ideas not belonging to anyone is the natural state of things, and all inventions and brands should have been in public domain in a perfect world. It's what the world naturally tends to, as piracy shows, and least costly to keep up. They aren't in public domain because society thinks it's beneficial to keep it that way, since the world is not perfect, and sometimes there are compromises.
Nintendo will obviously be hurt eventually by loss of their IP, if nobody benefitted from it, the laws wouldn't have become bloated in the first place. Well, I say, tough luck, you had 15 years to make money off an idea and save up competitive advantage on either Mario games or something else, time to let go and actually create something new, or get off the pot. Time for society to worry about its interests.
Abolishing copyright entirely probably would be a detriment to culture, but even there I'm not completely sure. I don't understand the processes involved well enough to make a good prediction for that case.
Just how expensive can coming up with a good brand once every 15 years be? Especially since they can even keep on making the same kind of games, they just don't have monopoly on them.
Maybe I don't get something, but it sounds weird, stating how nobody would make brands. Or did you mean the case of completely abandoning the notion of IP and copyright?

This. He folded to some scary e-mails that would have never amounted to anything.

>at best they'd report it to an actual lawyer
You seem to have a flimsy idea of how legal stuff works. Lawyers aren't police. They are basically employees. The people sending letters on behalf of Nintendo are paid to do so. It's why they do it. Nintendo can say "I don't like this guy so let's scare the shit out of him" and it doesn't matter, just like it doesn't matter what you do to earn a buck.

Whether or not Nintendo would fight back is a question. Yes it would cost money, but it would also show they're serious about defending. Of course they'd lose the case, so it's really a game of chicken. For Nintendo, the couple million it would cost is nothing. For the defendant, it could be an awful lot. And unless it's demonstrably frivolous (hard to do), everyone pays their own legal bills.

It really sucks. Money basically trumps all. You could study law and exercise your right to defend yourself. But otherwise it's probably not worth it to you unless you're loaded, and I have this feeling Nintendo wouldn't back down until the very end.

There were a lot of unauthorized, commercial DOOM expansions in the '90s, and most of them were shit, but you don't have to play those, you can just play the official stuff and the good fan WADs.

Honestly depends. Even if Walt Disney was never born and copyright stayed the way it was in the 1920s, then a game released in 1988 wouldn't be public domain until 2044 due to the expansions between 1790 and then.

Obviously most of them wouldn't. If they're shit, then they probably shouldn't. People already make more games than anyone has time to play and most of them don't make money. I don't see the difference, other than people are less restricted to what they're allowed to make.
Again to go back to the DOOM example, there are at least 130,000 custom DOOM levels hosted online on the most popular WAD website (my data from that is more than 4 years old so it's certainly higher than that by now), more than any one person could play in their entire lives. The saturation isn't a problem though, because most people ignore the ones that are shit and just play the good ones.

Generally that's not true.

It’s funny. SEGA is pretty much dead and they know that their content is shit, but at least they have the fucking integrity to own up to it and let fans do whatever the hell they want by letting them continue to make Sonic fangames without issue. They encouraged this so much so that they made an official game made by fans and it is one of the best Sonic games ever made. Nintendo on the other hand is still alive, well, and somehow thriving and they know that they aren’t giving it their all and that most of their games turn out like shit nowadays, but god forbid they fucking admit to it. They have the mentality that they could give people literal shit on a plate and they would still eat it up, and this is sadly true for the most part, however, for those who would simply like to put their own spin on an existing Nintendo property out of love like say, Pokémon, Metroid, or Mario, they go all autistic and have the games forcefully taken down with threats of legal action after people take months and years out of their time, THEIR LIFESPAN, to make a Nintendo fangame. All people are doing is showing their undying love and dedication to Nintendo by making them and they treat them like shit, yet they are still loyal and it’s disgusting. Nintendo does this because they know for a fucking fact that the fans could do better than them in every conceivable way. It’s literally been proven several times in the past (see Pokémon Sword and Shield) and apparently they don’t like that. It’s disgusting and the company is run by a bunch of literal retards, despite how sly they are with this fan game shit. They’ve been doing this for years and it is actually depressing to watch it continually happen.

Yes, and?

>I think ideas not belonging to anyone is the natural state of things, and all inventions and brands should have been in public domain in a perfect world.
This is always only said by idiots that have no ideas of their own.

>and they know that their content is shit
Their sonic content is shit, their other games like Yakuza, Puyo Puyo, their mobile games and even stuff like the genesis mini has been gaining a lot of positive praise and reviews.

Why does this board still insist on sucking Nintendo's dick? It's literally just japanese Disney, kikes to the max.

So who's up for MM8BDM?

Ara Ya Winnin Son here for the finale.
My wins and kills got cleared yesterday and lost motivation to play, after dicking around on Steam I thought'd it be good to make up some of my lost ground before I hitting the new collection. It was nice having this game for the short while we did. I wasn't that good but you guys made those runs fun. Hope to see you namefags on other games

They handled it well by not handling it at all. It was the fans who made Mania, not Sega.

>Puyo
Champions/eSports is only tolerated because it's separated from Tetris

based ninty, you shouldn't steal their assets and not pay them.

Because for all their bullshit they still make the best videogames.

A lot of people like Puyo Puyo Tetris more though

Sega does that because their IPs aren't worth anything.

Play Cook, Serve, Delicious!

Oh shut the fuck up
for one
>implying Nintendo is Game Freak
secondly, Nintendo doesn't have to prove shit unlike Sega. People seem to have the ridiculous idea ingrained in their heads that a company protecting their interests shows direct disdain for the fans, even though NO company would fucking have that because they make them money. Sega dropped out of the console game with the grace of a crippled elephant and came crawling to their competitors and fans to pick up the slack because they have literally nothing to lose amongst the sea of mediocrity they've been shitting out since the mid-2000's.
Most fangames are absolute shit, so that makes this "THEY STRIKE THEM BECAUSE THEY'RE BETTER" so funny, Nintendo's striken thousands of fangames at once before but the real outrage only came from ones that had a semblance of effort like AM2R or Uranium (even though the latter is shit).
Sega is dead because both their content is shit they're inconsistent and incompetent. Nintendo is alive because they're neither. Get a clue fuckhead.

People with ideas. You have nothing to worry about though.

Give a date and time and I'll be there. Probably best to have it somewhere Monday-Thursday so we aren't competing with the TF2 Party Van. At least the first time we play it should be purely vanilla, nobody plays vanilla anymore and it's a shame.

You are right, and you could argue its in the fans best interest because your average Joe just wants the peace of mind that when he grabs a new Mario game off the shelf, he can be sure its of a certain quality.

Some Puyo enthusiasts just don't like the vs. Tetris meta and are forced to tolerate Champions despite it being rather mediocre. There are no other real localized options for westerners.

Retard coming through. As far as I know many companies in japan let people create "doujin" games and the like, how come Nintendo and Sony don't allow that?

Post your final scores and name, had 25 wins but didn't get a screenshot.

Alright enough bullshit about Nintendo.

It's time for Yea Forums private servers.
We should have everything we need to set up our own server in that link. Where the hackbros at?
Who's got a backup of the javascript/html5 client? Wasn't there a standalone one floating around somewhere too?

I hope nintendo makes Mario Royale but with more levels. It was a good idea.

If anyone thought this wouldn't happen they're fucking stupid. He can always just make his own assets and release it with a level editor or make his own courses. Hell if he wants he could just rip off community Mario maker levels and they can't do shit about it because the layout can't possibly be protected in any way shape or form.

It's literally the exact same level design and mechanics, no shit it got taken down. I'm just surprised it took this long

ITS OK WHEN NINTENDO DOES IT

It's ok when anyone does it

This, it's ok for anyone who is Nintendo to do it.

Not true, it would just mean the destruction of videogame mascots

My only legacy was fucking up lost 1-1 for everyone with my high speed starnigger strat to give a bunch of people the star. Brilliant actually, because the speedrunners would all get killed and the starniggers would die to scrubbiness later on, allowing me reach the end solo most of the time.

He is a fucking idiot, if he had changed everything (castles ae now buildings, flag poles are now ladders or a giant lamp, backgrounds were HEAVY SCIFI instead of generic land and sounds wee all repllaced) He would have gotten away scot free.

I cant fault nintendo if the motherfucker barely gave a try on changing the game assets.

And I am Iron Man

LOOOOOOOOL GET IT

Of course they're not gonna give specifics, they don't want other people a chance to try and ride right on the line. But I hope Inferno isn't discouraged by this, he's onto something. People want a big multiplayer platform racing game. Now he just needs to make his own game, for REAL this time, from the ground up.

Considering its popularity, SEGA might have hired the dude and gotten him to make a non-Java version of it to sell commercially.
To be honest I don't think Sonic Royale has the same appeal though, just because classic Sonic generally doesn't rely on shit like enemy bouncing to take optimal paths and because the ring system would keep players alive a lot longer. 75% of the playerbase dying in the first 30 seconds was part of what made Mario Royale so charming, and Sonic doesn't have that. A massive live speedrunning mode that makes Sonic Mania Plus's 4 player mode look like a joke could still be great though, just not with the same tone as Mario Royale. You could have single-character and multi-character races as different options.

man, i had so much fun playing this

Good riddance. These threads belonged on /vg/ anyways.

You realizes Diives, and subsequently a bunch of other artists because of Diives, got their art DMCA's because of artist drama and patreon shit right?

There is a somewhat significant chance of it, yes.

If there's a problem with copyright and video games, it's that it's basically illegal to rescue more obscure titles that were orphaned or passed on to some company that has no interest in them.

We all know about Mario and would like to make content involving him because he's the most recognized character in the world, but what about the Muppet Adventure game for the NES? It played like ass and I feel like Disney is content to let the Muppets die, but imagine if somebody went back and fixed the mess of shitty code and mechanics and turned it into something more interesting. You could take a dead product and make it whole, maybe even breathe new life into it.

But no. Hundred years copyright. Die before you see a NES game go into public domain.

t. hanos

I'm pretty sure Nintendo's policy is to C&D everything they think they could even maybe some day make themselves.

Corporations can be like that, when the plug was pulled in City of Heroes, I've understood that several companies were interested in buying the IP but NCSOFT refused to let go of it despite killing it.
The last I heard they haven't interfered with fan attempts of reviving it though.

>Won using my favourite hentai and hentai characters names before they killed the game
I can die in peace now.

The problem isn't copywright, the problem is the legal system allowing big companies to shove lawyer armies at anybody who can't afford to pay for decades of legal battles. He would win a case in court, but he doesn't have the millions necessary to afford to do it.

Remember to boycott any and all Nintendo products for the rest of 2019. This is not acceptable at all.

Lmao no, fuck off basedny shill.

>You realizes Diives, and subsequently a bunch of other artists because of Diives
B-BUT THEY USED HIS CHARACTERS! Seriously, this all started when Diives decided no one should be able to draw any of his "OCs" of pokemon

literally just fucking ignore the C&D
this case would get thrown out of court in an instant even if it made it that far

yeah he took that $10 patreon increase and ran

Mario Royale
It was a browser game where you play through some original SMB levels against 98 (later reduced to 74) other Marios.
It only lasted a week, but what a great week it was.

It was fun while it lasted. At least I got my fill in before it shut down.

Wait theres multiplayer mods for that game? I’ve gotta go replay it now.

>spoiler
that's too retarded to believe, when did he post about that?

Well, At least we have the Superball powerup in SMM2.

Can this guy release his codebase so that people could create original levels?
Then why endless "mario is high on drugs and kills everyone" "parodies" exist?

Finally. I was starting to think Nintendos legal team were a bunch of hacks ignoring my reports

Python implementation of the backend (the original was Java and only Inferno has its source code) is here:
github.com/Igoorx/PyRoyale

The client is HTML 5 + Javascript and was hosted on the website. Literally anyone who played the game had the capability to make a full backup of it, so I'm sure it's out there.

Look at all these anons who love sucking corporate cock. Pathetic.

How about yo go make your own IP instead of stealing shit from other people, you fucking commie?

Where is that faggot whose name started "A", he was always there being #1 or #2.

Wait, did Diives get all his Pokemon shit taken down?

only a chink would support IP theft
go promote EGS in another thread you faggot 五毛

>because the ring system would keep players alive a lot longer.

No it wouldn't since only a couple of first players would get the rings. One of the big obstacles in Mario royale was that unless you were super fast you couldn't rely on powerups.

Fan games have been created and existed for ages. Including for Mario Bros. Only if he was selling it would this conceivably be justified.

Why not just HIRE Him Bring it to the switch and kill the PC version?

It was fun. People liked it. Some helped and it could have looked High Quality
