Game Freak has been allegedly hacked, with source codes for Pokemon games reportedly leaked
It appears another "gigaleak" has gone down, involving Nintendo. According to sources online, it appears that Game Freak has been hacked, resulting in internal data from the company being leaked to the public. Those involved in the hacking community or those within general Pokemon related groups...

Love how everyone in the comments are shitting on Nintendo and Game Freak lmao
They really, really, really, really earned it.
I swear to god, the Lemmy hive mind is even more intense than their predecessor.
That's like whining that everyone hates Blizzard or Ubisoft because of some hive mind mentality. Could it be that maybe it's just a commonly hated company based off their unethical actions over the last 10+ years?
No, if more than two people are mad at something, it's because of the hive mind or Russian trolls.
Here's the difference though: most people outside of Lemmy don't care about Nintendo's copyright lawsuits enough that it's the only thing they talk about whenever they hear the name. The fact that every comment expresses the same thing is the part that feels like a hive mind. Some criticism of a large corporation is one thing, but how strongly Lemmy holds that opinion feels cultish. Blizzard's leadership protects sex abusers and Ubisoft has had a work culture many describe as nightmarish for decades. Seeing Nintendo put on that level for something not even unique to them makes me think some of you don't know what nuance or perspective are.
I disagree. Nintendo isn't just some company that has legal beef and comparing their shitiness with Blizzard's is like comparing apples to oranges.
Nintendo is a litigious bully and patent troll that has a long, long list of hurting the fans that love their games. They don't just settle for cease and desists, they historically ruin people's lives (see Gary Bowser). What feels even worse about Nintendo is the complete misaligned of their product/ brand vs. how they treat fans. You can point to similar companies like Disney and I say that yes, I would happily cheer on any misfortune that comes to them with the same fervor as Nintendo.

That's... what I said.
My point is supposed to be that Lemmy acts as a though they're the devil, when in reality they're just the regular amount of corporate shitty. All of what you said is true, and I'm not trying to convince you it isn't. It just feels surreal how every comment in here is the same, like it's the same person behind every username. I get no sense of individuality here, ya know ?
But that whole argument follows the logical fallacy "whataboutism" to downplay X because Y and Z also do bad things. Just because you perceive something to be in line with a standard baseline of corporate shitiness doesn't mean it's not worth criticizing.
As for individualism, it's no secret that lemmy is somewhat left leaning which contributes to the general vibe. From my experience there is a lot more nuance and depth to the discussions that happen here when factoring in population size compared to other similar areas of the internet.
The wider Youtube community is pretty upset Nintendo is trying to get rid of Palworld.
No other company aggressively goes after its fans quite like Nintendo does. Nintendo have not only gone after fan projects made by fans showing their love for their beloved games, but also gone after community-run tournaments that in no way affect Nintendo, etc. Nintendo are pretty awful.
Yes, that's nice and all...but have you tried typing out "Fuck Nintendo" in a comment?
I know you’re being downvoted, but I had the same thought. I see more outcry over nintendo than other companies. Yes, Nintendo has done bad things, but if I were to go back and browse Reddit I feel like the level of hate on Lemmy is much higher. I have to assume it’s due to the open source nature of Lemmy and it’s ideals.
Wow, everyone left another platform and were inspired to leave for the same reason, as a group. Now they're showing extreme similarities in other ways! When will the madness stop??!
