Strictly speaking. Nintendo is within its legal rights to pull this move. At least as far as I understand the law at any rate.
It’s a drastic departure from the Norm especially for Nintendo who was permissive and lenient about community and fan works to a surprising degree. Especially given how other companies defended their IPs viciously.
Though this comes on the Heels of massive shifts in the Japanese Economy and Growing Concerns about the stability of the Yen. Could be Nintendo believes an economic storm is on the horizon and they’re battening down the hatches and taking steps to secure potential revenue streams. And that they’ll be able to make up any potential lost goodwill later.
Though it’ll be amusing if they try to crack down on the copious amounts of R34 surrounding their properties.
I know we can be autists on here, but for the love of God, use laymen's terms and EXPLAIN what is happening. I'm a gamer (PC admittedly) and have no fucking clue what you're on about.

I'll stick to Space Invaders, Robotron, and Tempest, thank you.
Seriously. Go old skool
