Yuck.
I despise this sort of spiteful nonsense. It just stifles creativity and healthy competition.
Oh? I Googled Ark and it showed me some game with dinosaurs and hunting? 
Palworld shows some obese Pikachu and some other Pokemonesque monsters.
I said gameplay (and gameplay design. Hence me saying design) for a reason. The artsyle is obviously heavily inspired by Pokemon but the gameplay itself is practically ark. Its ark with a pokemon skin more or less. Steam discussion board is also still memeing on it.

Ah ok, understood.
Indeed.
I think it will likely end in multiple companies suing Nintendo over this patent BS because it is harming their business that has been going on FOR YEARS.
Nintendo is so toxic in this regard. Anything but release the OG Pokémoon games on the Switch…
Dear gods no.
Yes Nintendo need to be reality checked but none of this nonsense, people should reap what they sow, not benefit off of the backs of others.

Absolutely should. Production capacity, reality, should govern who makes what.
Start making things for the team instead of shuffling around imaginary resource to particulars.
tell that to our ancestors.
I agree, there is a vast difference between intellectual property and those that steal it and profit from it, and patenting a basic mechanic present in a huge number of games.
