I've read that in this specific case a patent lawsuit is easier for Nintendo than a copyright lawsuit hence why they went with a patent lawsuit and not a copyright one, plus we have all sorts of patent troll companies and then examples like Warner Bros patenting the Nemesis System which isn't exactly a ground-breaking concept, resulting in nobody ever using it, Lol. But yes Nintendo will win, they have an amazing track-record in legal matters, they have access to the best lawyers in Japan, they will drown Pocketpair in legal fees or win the court case outright.

Best case scenario feels like it would be Pocketpair just paying Nintendo for the license to the trademark.

Halo in 2026 is on the menu! I assume this could be the rumored Halo CE remake.

There are actually people here still defending Ubisoft on this?

Mostly care for the Pixel remasters but

Grain of salt but this is from the original Midori account leaker

Final Fantasy XVI and Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster are coming to Xbox pretty soon.

I think it's less defending Ubisoft and more shitting on the... "anti-woke silo," if you will.  It's also had this really odd development outside of the original controversy:

-Accredited Japanese historians are putting more time into the Yasuke claims.

-A guy (or the guy) who drummed this up in his book took some convenient leaps to reach that conclusion.

-Wikipedia locking down Yasuke's page after re-editing it to say he became a true Samurai, instead of simply leaving it as a contested aspect of his life.  Literally editorializing history in the hopes of not giving the wrong people ammunition.  

We truly live in the most cringe timeline.

Pah haha imagine thinking I’d ever defend Ubisloop. Anyway, picked up a Meta Quest 2, first VR experience. playing HLA (the way it was intended) … straight up terror and amazement 🥹

What do you mean 'outside of the original controversy'. There's no way to disconnect the original point from all these developments, because the whole controversy literally started with them shoehorning this lazily researched DEI cliche into the game, then literally doubling-down by going on record saying "this will be our most historically accurate Assassin's Creed to date.", only to later turn around and directly contradict themselves after their 'source' got proven to be a complete liar.

You say you don't want to give ammunition to the "anti-woke silo", but bullshit Corporate agenda like this are the literal reason they exist. By defending or ignoring the blatant dishonesty, you're defending Ubisoft as well as all the other cheap and lazy corporate slave factories.

You're misreading my POV.  My 1st response was more about examining VersusEvil's tone/approach and breaking it down from there.  Anyways...

-What I mean with "outside the original controversy" is that Yasuke's contested profile did exist before AC: Shadows was announced.  I'm just making a separation between Shadows' issues and the broader conversation around Yasuke.

-But that's not what I said!  I'm literally breaking down how this reflects poorly on Wikipedia.  Their collective mindset seems to be "prop up disputed historical claims, so long as it upsets the bad people."  

Wow. That is not even a super-successful MMO. But yeah, without ESO+ it is barely usable and even with you are enticed to buy more crowns.
