Re: Kadokawa Confirms Sony Acquisition Interest

Just looked a bit more. Kadokawa owns 5 companies. Spike Chunsoft, FS, Acquire, Gotcha Gotcha Games and From Networks.

They own 70% of FS.

I really only care for Spike Chunsoft games (I like Danganronpa) so I don’t want that going exclusive.

Rest of what Kadokawa owns is all media and such. Anime, animation.

So Sony buying Kadokawa would give them a monopoly on animation and anime.

Re: Palworld Is Now Available on PS5 in Japan After Delayed Launch

@CutchuSlow @commentlife Nintendo would directly sue someone if they know they have a chance at winning. Thats probably why they took their time.

Also their parent patent was filed in 2021, with 4 other sub patents 2 filed in 2022 and 2 in 2024. But under that parent patent they are classified as patents from 2021.

This whole patent thing might be just a way for Nintendo to see if Palworld did use AI theft and directly steal Pokemon looks.

Re: Palworld Announced for PS5, and It's Out Today

@RubyCarbuncle The capture mechanic is what is being rumored right now. That one is specifically from Legends Arceus. We don't know if it is true or not. That particular patent was supposedly filed in Japan in 2021. There are probably more patents since Nintendo did say Palworld violated multiple patents. I heard one of the patents was from BOTW/TOTK. But we don't know until we have more information.
