      my understanding is that some Nintendo execs are green card holders, so this will be the one time they don’t sue anybody.

        Trump has already shown that greenness of cards means nothing to him, so it’s not like these people would be losing any immigration safe ground by not suing.

          Nintendo only sues people that don’t have enough money to fight back.

          one would think Nintendo would want to get back at the Trump admin for fucking with their money so much via tariffs. but I guess they don’t see it that way. Nintendo has always been cautious/conservative to a fault.

        Trump v Nintendo would be an interesting fight…

        I’m not even sure how that would play out.

        I’m sure they have $100,000/year to spare.

    what’s that? Nintendo’s supporting the Department of Homeland Security? I’m enraged. These woke devs putting politics in our games! I’m never buying another Nintendo product again! (If enough of us say it, maybe we can pressure Nintendo to sue?)

        There’s something about that meme that just works better in low resolution.
