@LordGraywords @BortTheBeaver Also correct. And I'm assuming that Nintendo has some sort of retroactive EULA on Melee that forbids them running the tournament. Otherwise, there wouldn't really be a problem.

Nintendo I know you have issues with people playing games in their own way and not the way you want them to play. But what you are doing right now is going to hurt you in the long run. You tried to do this back in 2013 and it's not a good look.

@Ikethekiller @MysticDistance It's because usage of said fan mod could be used for less pleasant purposes and it would be bad publicity for Nintendo because they have an image to uphold and they own the IP. Better to nip that potential problem from the ground before it gets to grow.

@Amphy516 There is no evidence that the copies are pirated. Also its kinda funny how your complaining too. Also there is no legal issue, nintendo just says "mod of our game? dats piracyyyy". Don't get involved in stuff if you are aren't able to handle what others have to say.

monkeys fan ,!!!! (@mnokye) reported
@SirfetchdGang @TFSthegreat @C9Mang0 You do have a point. Again Nintendo is shitty but Game Freak deserves more blame than Nintendo when talking about the problems with Pokémon specifically

Iron Joe - Ashley & Red for Smash (@IronJoeBro) reported
@pear139 Every single person using Slippi would gladly pay Nintendo real *** money for the exact same service if Nintendo let them. They can’t. Wanna fight piracy? Offer something better. Competing with free sounds hard, but a company with money can do it.

@HacGrand @ThatsADarkHorse @VGBC_GimR As for "oppressed worker" and "unpayed work": we aren't asking for money, we are asking for the same respect thousands of other games have gotten from devs/publishers for 10+ years. This is a symptom of a bigger problem. Which is that Nintendo woefully behind the times.

@CommunistPrtyAC @GaryHebertPSD dude no no, im not mad its okay. me saying nintendo sucks as a corporation shouldn't deter you from buying their games because truthfully they've always had this issue. do what you want
-
Franky Bones (@Franky_Bones) reported
@PracticalTAS The issue with that argument though is that Nintendo stated they didn't want Slippi used because it requires an illegal game copy. So in their eyes, if they think we all have illegal copies, then we didn't "pay fair return" aka down own it. They're wrong, but just saying.

anti-Biden account once more (@SonderToday) reported
@PPMD To let Nintendo know how badly they ****** up with #FreeMelee, call 1 800-255-3700 and then press "0" several times to get through the recorded prompts. Then RESPECTFULLY let the customer service rep know how much Melee means to you and how it's kept you a Nintendo customer.

I side with Nintendo on this current issue. I don't even care for competitive Smash in the slightest to begin with.

@ShawnPX @iBDWSSBM slippi isn't the problem, fair use is. Nintendo is trying to pull an Evo 2013 by banning any broadcast or recording, since they technically own the footage or something. Now slippi is certainly the motivation behind this, so that's another issue

@NintendoAmerica Fix your garbage company #FreeMelee

Ian The BITCH (@IanTheWizard1) reported
@NintendoAmerica Please stop this scummy bull ****. I am sick of watching my beloved video game company’s turn into these money hungry animals that ruin everyone’s day like @bethesda and @EA . Please fix yourselves and don’t kill melee. Thank you.

@WilliamCail1 @SelenaBestWaifu Gamestop still sells NEW copies of melee? A game made 20 years ago?Most sealed copies on the second hand market are hundreds of dollars. Nintendo doesn't get jack from pre owned games. The problem is not ultimate if you couldn't tell.
