I mean, people have already created the majority of their good games from scratch so…
Oh I promise you that isn’t the point.
Don’t nobody want that trash codebase.
Hobbyists have made Pokemon clones in their basement for decades. They never needed the source code.
If I’m not mistaken, there’s an entire online RPG ran by hobbyists.
Maybe this was an intentional leak. Now the Nintendo lawyers can claim they’ve used stolen proprietary code?
Good. Couldn’t have happened to a worse company other than Nintendo.
Now people can verify if Gamefreak’s excuses for not including all Pokemon in each game since the Switch games are real. And verify how low effort their games are.
Nintendo aren’t the worst company. Not even the worst gaming company. Not when they have competition like Ubisoft and Warner Brothers and EA and Activision.
Of course, if it weren’t for the presence of the aforementioned companies, Nintendo would be the worst.
I mean they take like 33% of that guy named bowser’s life earnings. Which are severely reduced because they also got him thrown in jail for a felony.
That’s pretty uniquely evil
Source code is only for HG/SS and B2W2, so we still can’t verify anything about the newer genes
Damn. Too bad. But those are both interesting games to have the source code of.

Wasn’t it true, but due to time not technical issues. Basically they keep redoing/remaking from scratch sprites instead of re-using them.
Evidence wouldn’t be as concrete as source code, but there was plenty of evidence from data miners. Gamefreak kept moving goal posts when it came to why it wasn’t feasible for Sword and Shield to have all the Pokémon which is my frustration with that situation. I think they complained about the capacity of the cartridge the games were stored on was one, which was readily proven wrong. Dont quote me on that. But I do think the situation with the models was ultimately the case.
Somebody had to find out whether there really was a Mew under the truck in Red and Blue after all.
Someone here recently blew my mind with this video, time for me to pay it forward.
So the glitch never existed but he programmed it in ? Do I understand this right ?
Yeah, from what I can tell, this is basically just what we would now refer to as a “mod”.
thank you
Next headline “Hackers disappointed that the hacked source code is apparently just the same as the last 16 games”
I laughed way too hard at this
HA HA
Patent the code and sue Nintendo when they release the game.
You can’t patent code, and it’s automatically copyright protected. Nintendo just needs to prove they wrote the code originally, which should be easy.
Omg LMAO!!! This is actually genius.
It’s nonsensical, so not really.
Terabytes of the same game, just in different colors.
Sort of. The same game, over and over, each time in a different colour, each time with a higher pixel density, each time a little bit worse.
Also design documents like the dude that mated with an octillery lol. The concept of people and pokemon breeding was still referenced in sinoh, but in a way tamer way.
Clearly I’ve been out of the series too long, what the fuck?
This is what made it in, but there are more of those myths that do get pretty dark for this series that was uncovered in that hack, also a beta build of BW.
We were once Pokemon?
We… Could have been the ones in pokeballs?
We could have… Mated with them?
Vaporeon
Batman…I caught a pokemon Batman…
Is there a remind me bot like reddit?
Surprised someone hasn’t made one yet
Edit: someone developed it but nobody is hosting it lol. I would host it but my server is broken right now.
Pokemon could be made in RPG maker in like 5 minutes.
That’s probably something a person who has no clue about Pokemon could say. You underestimate how many mechanics older games contain, since like half of them are not obvious for casual players. Although I am not sure about gens newer than IV (Diamond and Pearl is the most recent I’ve played), since I haven’t played them. But most people agree that the best games were around that period (Gen IV, or V), and they only become worse over the years.
You got me. It would probably take more than 5 minutes to do. You saw through my web of lies.
Hey! This guy’s a phony!!
It is a menu driven battler that ran on a game boy. It doesn’t take a programming savant to write this, no matter how many mechanics you bolt on top.
Pokemon Infinite Fusion is in fact made in RPG maker and is imo the best Pokemon game out there.
If only I can figure out how to get it running on my Steam Deck.
You can just follow the guide they made for it.
https://youtu.be/LnGVcYo4uZQ?si=9Hh9uYyJSntkKT2x
*edit- who the hell would be downvoting me for this? It’s literally the guide to run it on steam deck. I think it’s even one of the games co developers that made the guide.
Thanks!!!
Does it need an emulator or run as it’s own app?
Wonder if I can play it on phone
iPhone users are out of luck afaik but you can try your mileage with android if you have it.

It’d be a no brainer for me if it was just a romhack.
Gonna have to take a look at it
It’s made in RPG maker so it runs its own instance of RPG maker. Someone else posted a guide above.
It’s only intended to be played on PC but the guides are from other users who have done their best to come up with workarounds for various platforms.
I thought RPG Maker could do Android versions?
It’s a standard RPG but replace the equipment with animals. Done.
Now I kind of want a Flintstones RPG.
Gameboy studio in 30.
In my head this is a retribution for financing hackers that attacked Internet Archive and nobody can convince me otherwise
This is a conspiracy theory I’m completely behind. With all the moves Nintendo has made recently this was the first thing I thought when Internet Archive was compromised
Nintendo was responsible for that?
It’s like Lenin said, you look for the person who will benefit… And, uh… You know, you’ll, uh… You know what I mean.
The Dude
„Who benefits the most” from attacking Internet Archive? Big copyright holders whose content was distributed via Internet Archive. The reason given by the group claiming responsibility is so silly I don’t believe it.
[edit] I’ll add to this comment so that I don’t have to reply to everyone specifically.
I don’t believe that if you wanted to attack USA (as people claiming responsibility did) you’d attack it in a way that benefits big corporations most. It sounds like a flimsy distraction from true perpetrators.
You can believe what you want, but there’s absolutely no way you would be correct. Any large company sponsoring a cyber attack, if caught, would be nailed to the wall and made an example of. The extreme risks are simply not worth the comparatively small reward of reducing a tiny fraction of piracy.
A more realistic and reasonable avenue would have been to sponsor the companies going after IA for copyright infringement as a result of them loaning out unlimited digital copies of books without DRM.
This is a very valid point, yet companies do shady stuff all the time and some even get caught via subpoenas and such. Nintendo can do it in a way that will never be noticeable on their books for sure.
So you’re just making wild assumptions?
That’s what I’m seeing, unless a documented source eventually shows up.
A documented source has shown up and its already been dismissed it as “silly”. Unlikely any future sources would change their mind.
Conjecture is not documentation.
What’s that source? You mean anonymous group claiming responsibility being reported in media?
What was wild about this assumption?
The complete omission of evidence of any sort?
There’s motive and circumstances. Nintendo opened every possible front in the last year or so. Now this happens. Even if not related to IA specifically this definitely looks like retribution.
Also, please read my first comment again. I think I made it clear it’s speculation.

Interesting, I got quite the opposite impression. And no one can convince me otherwise.
… nobody can convince me otherwise
Ignorance isn’t something to be proud of.
I’ve been holding onto a pet conspiracy theory that BW2 was a last-minute change from Gray, loose ends and plot holes felt too rushed. Curious if the leaked source code will corroborate this.
Ive no interest but hopefully there are torrents soon for those who are interested.
It’s a huge deal for hardcore fans, but I am overall against these practices, since they are just illegal, period.
Don’t conflate legality with morality.
Why wouldn’t torrenting the source code of proprietary software would be a legal issue? I don’t care of you do it but I’m curious why you only think it’s a moral issue.
Love how everyone in the comments are shitting on Nintendo and Game Freak lmao
They really, really, really, really earned it.
I swear to god, the Lemmy hive mind is even more intense than their predecessor.
I know you’re being downvoted, but I had the same thought. I see more outcry over nintendo than other companies. Yes, Nintendo has done bad things, but if I were to go back and browse Reddit I feel like the level of hate on Lemmy is much higher. I have to assume it’s due to the open source nature of Lemmy and it’s ideals.
That’s like whining that everyone hates Blizzard or Ubisoft because of some hive mind mentality. Could it be that maybe it’s just a commonly hated company based off their unethical actions over the last 10+ years?
No, if more than two people are mad at something, it’s because of the hive mind or Russian trolls.
Here’s the difference though: most people outside of Lemmy don’t care about Nintendo’s copyright lawsuits enough that it’s the only thing they talk about whenever they hear the name. The fact that every comment expresses the same thing is the part that feels like a hive mind. Some criticism of a large corporation is one thing, but how strongly Lemmy holds that opinion feels cultish. Blizzard’s leadership protects sex abusers and Ubisoft has had a work culture many describe as nightmarish for decades. Seeing Nintendo put on that level for something not even unique to them makes me think some of you don’t know what nuance or perspective are.
I disagree. Nintendo isn’t just some company that has legal beef and comparing their shitiness with Blizzard’s is like comparing apples to oranges.
Nintendo is a litigious bully and patent troll that has a long, long list of hurting the fans that love their games. They don’t just settle for cease and desists, they historically ruin people’s lives (see Gary Bowser). What feels even worse about Nintendo is the complete misaligned of their product/ brand vs. how they treat fans. You can point to similar companies like Disney and I say that yes, I would happily cheer on any misfortune that comes to them with the same fervor as Nintendo.
comparing their shitiness with Blizzard’s is like comparing apples to oranges.
That’s… what I said.
My point is supposed to be that Lemmy acts as a though they’re the devil, when in reality they’re just the regular amount of corporate shitty. All of what you said is true, and I’m not trying to convince you it isn’t. It just feels surreal how every comment in here is the same, like it’s the same person behind every username. I get no sense of individuality here, ya know ?
The wider Youtube community is pretty upset Nintendo is trying to get rid of Palworld.
Yes, that’s nice and all…but have you tried typing out “Fuck Nintendo” in a comment?
