http://www.washingto...it-shouldnt-be/

The article is long and I'm on a tab so... I don't want to go through the hassle. BUT

even if this guy says it shouldn't be....it still is by law. I don't think nintendo can sue the is guy but I know they cand request to have it removed. Honestly I know this sight won't really hurt them but it still technically is illegal so Nintendo does have the right to btch lol

A Mario Sight?

You mean a thing that lets you see things like Mario sees them?

 

 

OOOOh it's a web SITE.

I see.

 

It's infringing on their intellectual property rights.

The game itself is not, but the branding they're using is clearly owned by Nintendo, and was thought of by Miyamoto, of Nintendo.

Uh...it's illegal. Very illegal.

 

Last I checked, Nintendo still actively sells this game on the Wii U/3DS, so...yeah. That's illegal.

this is Nintendo we're talking about. They'll probably start suing let's plays on youtube for Gods sake. They have no concept that these sites are free advertising. Do they really think that anyone is paying for the original mario these days? Really?

Exactly the problem they're trying to fight.

Well done!

Aww, I thought this was something interesting considering the whole "mario sight" thing.

Well, I don't know about you but I actually, like, pay for my games.

lol, i've payed my dues. I bought the original mario bros when it first came out. do you really think they're trying to combat piracy with this stance? It's MARIO 1! 1! I love the mindless loyalty to a corporation that does nothing but take advantage of it's loyal customers by rehashing the same game over and over again. Maybe that's why they're worried about the site, it's actually creating something more unique than Nintendo can do with Mario :)

That's right again, you should be a lawyer.

Nintendo protecting their IP like this to further make money is exactly their goal here.

oh you are a witty one. Nintendo is focusing on protecting the IP of a 30 year old game instead of making NEW games. Priorities abound! Am I...right again? I'll just assume you're a broken record and I am ^^

Because their legal team is totally the same as their development studios...

If you search original super marios on google or something you can play the full game without downloading or anything, do you have any idea how many of those websites they can sue? And what about emulators?

It's doing something unique by grabbing the original Mario and uploading it on a website?

They do both.

Wii Fit, Wii Sports, Wii Music, Wii Party, Wii Play. All new Intellectual properties.

They'll protect those properties in 30 years too, no doubt.

It's only using the Mario assets, it's all custom code most likely.

If they reskinned it there'd be no issue.
