Big companies being trash and heartless is not surprising

Totally unnecessary move for Nintendo, hope they get backslash and step back

Why Nintendo??? Etika created one of your biggest communities and you dont show a bit of grateful??? C'mon man.

It's totally necessary because it's the law. Nintendo can't let people use your trademarks without license to do so, otherwise it grants precedent for everyone else to do so without Nintendo being able to do so with no legal grounds to stop them. Failure to defend unauthorized use of trademarks nullifies the trademark.

Very much this.
