So there's this game called Era's Adventures in the Android Marketplace... Well I don't even know what to say. Nintendo can't be happy.

My God...this is even more brazen than some of the other shameless rip-offs. That character model is lifted lock, stock, and barrel from Nintendo.

Nintendo cannot possibly be happy about this.

Isn't there some kind of quality control team that should watch out for these things?

Can't Nintendo sue the shit out of these guys?

Wow it looks good, Is that only for Android?

big pubs and devs really need to start looking at the mobile space. If they dont act tehir good IP's and names will be ripped off. People want their games on phones and tablets, so they need to start releasing them there.

Nintendo saw how much Senran Kagura sold on the Vita and went third party.

Even when they do their stuff is still ripped off, this is just par for the course in the mobile market.

I don't think just because you have thieves ripping off your intellectual property on mobile games, that means you should automatically start making games for mobile platforms.  There isn't any real competition, as the games the IP thieves are making are merely flim-flams and most people are aware of that.

Besides, this is why Nintendo and other major devs have full legal teams in their employ.  When IP theft and copyright infrindgement are occuring, you use your legal team to get these rip-offs taken down and then if necessary, prosecute the guilty parties.
