# cloud crown But then again, who knows what kind of person Devon Pritchard is going to be.
  • "Longtime Nintendo Executive: Pritchard has been with Nintendo of America for nearly 20 years, holding senior roles in marketing, business affairs, and publisher relations."

  • "Strategic Contributions to growth: Under Pritchard's leadership, Nintendo expanded its global reach, including partnerships for AI infrastructure in Europe and collaborations with companies like Disney, Foxconn, and TSMC"

  • She will assume her new role effective Jan 1st of next year

  • She was mentored by Bowser and credits him as a fantastic mentor

  • Focus on Innovation: Pritchard's vision emphasizes Nintendo's mission of "creating smiles," with a commitment to evolving the brand through characters and worlds that appeal to everyone.

Taken from an article on the Hindustan Times, a few pieces of info about Pritchard. Take this for what you will.

Other monster taming games up to that point were hardly of note, so their “success” probably never concerned Nintendo.

TPC’s statement specifically addressed all the inquiries they were getting since Palworld launched. That directly tells that their fans were overwhelmingly inundating them with demands to sue Palworld.

Nintendo then submitted three new patents after all of that and somehow fastracked it to file a suit against Pocketpair.

The talk about new patents and a 'fast-tracked' lawsuit is where the real business war is happening. The suit probably isn't about Palworld as much as it is about setting a legal precedent for the monster-taming genre moving forward. If they can successfully sue (or even just get a settlement) over a 'creature with a gun' game, it puts a massive chilling effect on any other ambitious competitors who want to try a new take on their core formula.

Nintendo sells you a game and then tells you to get out of their sight and only come back if you want to pay more money for another product

covert swallow
# teal iron Nintendo sells you a game and then tells you to get out of their sight and only ...

That's the core difference: Nintendo sells a product; Palworld sells an ecosystem. With Palworld, you buy a foundation, and the constant updates, bug fixes, and new content (even if basic right now) make it feel like an evolving service. With Nintendo, a $60-$70 game is a complete experience, and then it's done. You have to buy the next $60 game. That model is starting to feel increasingly stingy compared to the long-term value other developers offer.

peak folio
covert swallow
# peak folio Precisely the reason Pocketpair can’t just take the settlement (nevermind the in...

Yea. Because the lawsuit isn't just seeking damages (a fine that Pocketpair could easily pay with their $70+ million in sales). The real threat is the injunction. An injunction would legally force them to stop selling and developing Palworld in the relevant jurisdiction (likely Japan, but it sets a global precedent). Taking a settlement usually means agreeing to the injunction or making such fundamental changes that the core appeal of the game is destroyed. Pocketpair is fighting for its company's flagship product and, frankly, its survival.

teal iron
#

And it's all a little ironic because Nintendo will probably only benefit from a healthy ecosystem of "competitors"

#

cheap indie games like palworld act as a gateway into the harder, more expensive drugs Creature Collectors like Pokemon

peak folio
covert swallow
teal iron
#

And most people who won't buy pokemon aren't doing so because of alternatives, they're not doing so for other reasons

covert swallow
# peak folio They’re fighting for the whole damn industry.

If Nintendo wins, it would validate their right to essentially "own" these fundamental gameplay loops. This would create a massive "chilling effect" where any developer, big or small, thinking of making a game involving creature collecting, taming, or open-world mechanics would have to fear a lawsuit from a corporate giant.

Eliminating Palworld does not boost sales, and ignoring "ignoring" palworld probably helps them, in a certain way
On the large scale

I mean the next pokemon game is probably to see an underwhelming sales turnout for a LOT of reasons, one of which is Palworld
ALthough to what degree Palworld "stole" sales and to what degree the lawsuit turned people away is definitely of some debate

Scratch offs… wtf is that? croajirokek

The other part of the scalping goes for the supplier selling the stuff off-site for the inflated scalper price

#

Yes, that also happened here with the basic foodstuffs

peak folio

The idea of having stores distribute free content like shiny Koraidons or w/e is to get people into the partner stores. Doesn’t really work when it’s hopelessly supply constrained because that a lot of people who wont bother making the trip for almost the entire promotion period.

Not at all.

but yeah if it didn't get scalped in 30 seconds it would benefit the corporation a lot more

They made deals with the store people to get the food first

teal iron

They want people in the store, buying pokemon stuff, to get that Yveltal

And then they sold it off-site, at ridiculous prices

peak folio
#

Okay that’s hilarious

teal iron
#

if there's no miraidon and koraidon, there's no bait and only the usual obsessed nerds will show up

#

and if the news is that they got scalped off in like 10 seconds, you might a few people to show up extra super early for the next event, but a lot of them might just not bother, assuming future promotions will meet the same fate

humble parrot
#

People would go to try to get the food, but had to queue after the scalpers

and like

Nintendo's two new patents appear on the surface to be overbroad, and dangerous. On the one hand, you have patent '387, which purports to patent mounts! And on the other, you have patent '397, which patents automatic battling! Could it be true that the US Patent and Trademark Office has just handed Nintendo the keys to the entire gaming industry...

I mean it can take me like 10 or 20 minutes to find one...

Well, two because I usually go for a breeding pair (basically attempting to speedrun getting the best base pals, grizzbolt can make both of them)

I was able to get braloha, faleris aqua, splatterina and knocklem before day 10 using this strat, all generation 2 (bred from wild captures or merchant purchases, neither parent hatched)

So...now that EA has sold 100% of the company to that Saudi investor group, can I buy the rights to Dungeon Keeper, Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction and Army of Two off them?

For EA to willingly sell off their company to a FOREIGN investment group, that’s some serious soullessness

#

Like they didn’t even care at all

#

That’s how I view it anyway

Probably because the ones you hear about are always billions

EA selling their company to human rights violation land investors is pretty much par for the course, probably

I wonder what the geniuses over at "we have people assassinated regularly" country will come up with to make the company "profitable"

probably still better than being public

I mean
I think EA and ubisoft have been trying for YEARS to seee who can be the worst, ever
So yeah I'm sure anyone with any interest in something other than that would be better

EA CEOs on their way to literally make things up about how their newest anti-consumer practice is actually going to be very profitable instead of delivering the most mediocre returns ever seen

"You see by punching babies we are doing an advanced business practice that will actually make us billions" -Executive who is going to later report maybe tens of millions in profits this quarter

EA managed to be ranked among the top most hated companies of any kind for a good while (at a certain point they were the most hated) which is impressive for a game company.

#

So we’ll see what going private does.

#

Don't really care much tbh

#

All the franchises and series that I had any interest in have already been killed by EA

#

So they can rot in saudi sands all they want

Desiccate, to be more precise

This is probably the second company buying in Saudi Arabia
