How the fuck was Nintendo able to body slam AM2R into submission pretty much fucking immediately, but this is still readily available with no repercussions?

>Uranium

Fitting considering its basically cancer.

AM2R probably was actually good.

That's actually a pretty good joke

>uses original Pokemon

This looks autistic as fuck

Because Pokemon isn't a Nintendo property.
The Pokemon Company would be the ones that would have to deal with this.

Metroid is still worth money to people.
Nobody gives a shit about Pokemon romhack #52541.

first post best post

Can't get over the fact that the devs aren't including older gen pokemon/National dex post game.

Because it sucks?
Tbh the late game is bretty sweet tho

Metroid isn't worth shit to anybody, even Nintendo. They've been preparing to put it into the ground since Other M bombed. It has never sold well and has always been a niche series.

Pokemon is one of Nintendo's big three (the other two being Zelda and Mario) because even over twenty years later, it still sells like hotcakes and has a ridiculously huge, devoted fanbase.

Other M didn't bomb, it was extremely successful in Japan.

But as you accurately pointed out, Nintendo didn't CnD AM2R. It was just some delegate who probably lives in fatistan.

I mean you have literal whos selling Pokémon porn on every convention in japan, Nintendo doesn't give a shit.

Is it really that bad? I love Pokémon rom hacks.

It's fucking horrendous, dude.

Why?

Why though? Isn't it 9 years in the making.

Because unlike Uranium, AM2R is well made and not full of gamebreaking bugs.

>rom hacks
"no"

>Uranium
>not Uranus

>it was extremely successful is japan
Hahaha, NO. It had terrible sales even in Japan.

Do tell.

The difficulty is easier than XY and ORAS

I've been following a Pokemon hack for close to eight years and the developer got the bright idea of streaming it before he releases it next month. How nervous should I be?

That hack for ORAS is pretty fucking hard though

Its not a ROM hack. It was built from the ground up in RPG maker.

Its pretty good. The fakemon are anywhere from fucking awful to awesome though. The game is also pretty decent difficulty wise. Its not a walk in the park but that may change as I only just got the first badge.

You could do a hell of a lot worse for a free game. I mean fuck I say its better than the horribleness that was Black and White.

is there like a list of fakemon games, or does this question belong in /vp/?

The Pokemon Company is the one which handles pokemon related stuff and they never gave a shit about rom hacks. Unless it's a 3ds game hack or or a pc game stealing pokemon assets it'll be fine

I don't know, I haven't played it

Ah, I see. I've been playing a Pokémon White romhack. Volt White lately and it's pretty fucking hard even with heavy grinding. I'll give it a shot can't beat a free game.

/vp/ this is the first one I've ever played since it was so easy to get and play.

>all these rom hacks
>not a single one gets rid of HMs
>after all these years, GF finally gets rid of them
Damn, I thought ROMs usually fix the most obvious annoying attributes of a game. Do not many Pokemon fans not realize how cancerous HM's were?

>this BW is bad meme again

Genwunners make me fucking sick. BW are right up there with Emerald, Plat, HG/SS and B2/W2

>Because Pokemon isn't a Nintendo property.
This meme again.

Pokemon is owned by TPC, GF and Nintendo.

Nintendo owns GF.

It's not a "remake" of an existing product they can make money off of that doesn't require owning one of their products to play, so they don't care.

My only problem is that it runs like shit in some areas, like the rainforest.

Wasn't even that bad. Then again, I've gone further down the rabbit hole than most of you.

Its not so much that you need to grind its that this game goes balls out with its move sets and types. Most trainers either have a few above the curve leveled pokemon or a full team of on curve pokemon.

Ayooo whatabout that Titanice tho

Nintendo doesn't own GF, but they do hold majority stake in TPC.

3>2>1>5>4

do you fuck the pokemon?

which one? talking about meme sapphire?

I have a theory that Nintendo can't take down pokemon fangames or stuff that easy.

Sakurai has talked about getting pokemon characters in smash is hard due to the fact that Nintendo only owns 2/3 of the pokemon IP, with Gamefreak owning the rest.

So I think the reason that nintendo rarely takes down pokemon fan stuff is that they might be legally obligated to coordinate with GF so most of the time it's not worth the effort.

Like, sage () has gotten a fucking shit ton of press over the past few years and it's never had an issue

Why does someone with perfect taste otherwise love such a shit game?

Level don't matter, I'm 10 levels under your average trainer and I'm still doing fine. The only real wall I ran into was that fucking Baton Passer Ace Trainer, even if I Taunted his Smeargle his Sylveon would just Hyper Voice OHKO my entire team anyway.

The what

It isn't. It's on par with DP, unless you really loved the story.

emerald>plat>gen 1>gen 4>gen 3>black/white

pokemon designs suck, inconsistent at best and hideous at worst. in fact, the art style in general is extremely jarring from scene to scene. music is not good. new type doesn't make any damn sense. balance is COMPLETELY fucked. unsolvable puzzles etc etc.

So, Pokemon Uranium links are already down, and I'm having a hard time finding legit alternatives.
Anyone fancy giving user a hand?

Rutile Ruby. Played Eternal X too but it wasn't quite as hard.

*emerald>plat>crystal>gen 1>gen 4>gen 3>black/white

Honestly, HM based exploration has killed the games for me. First gen was minimal, but every gen after that becomes more obnoxious. Why do I want 4/6th of my team to be shitty and dedicated to HMs? Sun/Moon will be the first one that has a chance at being better than gen 1 thanks to removing HMs. as far as i know

drive.google.com/file/d/0B4HusEKrIZiQbUlvd0kySHZKSXM/view

Nintendo probably sees it as yet another romhack in a pool of thousands.

Where is AM2R shits all over anything Nintendo has done recently.

Dude you couldn't even delete HMs in Gen 1. Ever.

Tried, buy says too many people downloaded the file and it's been made temporarily unavailable

>gen 4 over gen 3
>not even including great-tier gen 2

Gen 5 is the worst gen

The better question is how this shit is able to keep running while AM2R gets shut down.

>Calling something cancer while posting cancer

Cancer.

i never knew i wanted a radioactive type pokemon that would be sick as fuck

For what the game is its pretty good. WAY better than I expected it to be. 1.0 got rid of >Most< of the game breaking bugs so check the wiki so you dont stumble into the ones still in the game.

There are a lot of stupid things in the game but at the same time there are a lot of good things. The game supports wonder trading and online battling. Most of the pokemon are just ok with a few cool ones and a few retarded as fuck ones.

As is its a great stopgap while you wait for Sun/Moon. You just gotta be able to look over the retardedness when it crops up. Fuck the rival man. I cant believe they kept him.

>anything made with RPGMaker that isn't LISA
No thanks

>bruh
>sick as fuck
Underage B& fuck off

>not including hentai games

You're missing out on life, buddy.

Whats wrong with RPG maker?

I tried to played it, but it's so fucking slow.

>yay you can delete something that you have to use constantly
What is the point? Being able to delete them was an improvement, but it was FAR from fixing the problem. At least you didn't have to dedicate as many pokemon to HMs in gen 1.

I thought Nintendo didn't take down AM2R

>9 years in the making
>implying time = quality
Duke nukem
SC2
Etc etc

your loss

>implying sc2
good bate

emerald was great but ruby and sapphire were dogshit and FR/LG were just gen 1 with updated graphics

>Picking Brazil to be the bases of the region

They shot themselves in the foot and lost half of their playerbase by ruining breeding anyway.

Not him, but SC2 switched from hosted maps to random lobbies. Shit made the game worthless to me.

Wait, did AM2R get C&D'd? I downloaded as soon as I heard it was out and I haven't heard anything on it recently.

I agree that gen 3 and emerald were the best

But why were they the best?
Is it just because they were the first real full color games?

Gameboy doesn't have a 10NES lockout chip.
It's really THAT simple.

>but why?
10NES is a DRM/Copyright Protection chip, emulators, by virtue of what they are, bypass/emulate that security, which under the DMCA is very illegal.

Therefore Nintendo had a legal right to serve the AM2R developers with a DMCA notice.

Since Gameboy doesn't have a protection chip, technically you're not bypassing any DRM emulating it, therefore Pokemon Uranium can skirt the law.

Up to gen 3 it felt like they were constantly progressing and making a better GAME. It also had the best pacing. The biggest thing for me though is that it was the last game before they made the games even easier then they were. Pokemon was never hard but after gen 3 its basically just going through the motions. I dont even feel like I'm playing just sitting there wasting time.

Wasn't AM2R getting that letter from "NoA" just bullshit?

Its not a ROM hack. It was made in RPG maker.

Since when is DRM a law? If a company has the rights to an IP, it doesn't matter what kind of "protection" is blocking you from using the content. Unless I'm missing something you can point out in the law.

Not C&D'd, but the site hosting it got a DMCA takedown notice.

I guess the guy can still work on a 1.1 version if there's a need, but the Metroid Database or whatever the site's called can't host it anymore.

Since DMCA.
It DRM exists, it's Illegal to remove it with out the publishers/developers permission.

But of course this sinks that boat anyway, I honestly thought it was a romhack.

>FR/LG were just gen 1 with updated graphics
with how old gen 1 was, updated graphics makes a BIG difference. i was also probably the best looking 2d pokemon games of all time. then there's the sevii islands, and fixing the ridiculous amount of glitches in gen 1. it pretty much perfected gen 1.

but yeah, ruby and sapphire were pretty shit

Since there's been discussion of Romhacks and custom made games, has anyone tried Pokemon Sage? I've been waiting for it to be updated for the last year.

Because nobody wants to play some shitty fanfiction tier romhack

nintendo knows not to fuck with the pokemon autistic horde

they dont really understand it, but need the money, so they just redo the samething

there are literally hundreds if not thousands of pokemon rom hacks, they would be insane to go after them all.

but 1 metroid game? that shits much more rare and they arent afraid of the fans

>sage has more cartoonish, yet well designed pokemon than half the official pokemon games

Nintendo doesn't own Game Freak, and Pokemon is owned by Nintendo, Game Freak and Creatures Inc, while Nintendo has an undlsclosed stake in Creatures. Nintendo itself is the sole owner of the Pokemon trademark, however. TPC basically manages the licensing and marketing of the franchise on behalf of its three owners, so for something like this it'd probably fall to TPC to order a cease and desist. If it also infringed on the Pokemon trademark, then Nintendo would have to directly be involved themselves.

Yeah, it's pretty crazy that a bunch of guys from /vp/ did as well as they did with designing all of the pokemon.

>pokemon uranium is the only fanmade pokemon game
it's definitely not the first and won't be the last.
>pokemon glazed
>that grimdark pokemon one where the train is attack by poketerrorists at the beginning
>pokemon sage
off the top of my head

Can someone make a petition to remove /vp/?

Still, shouldn't the content itself be equally protected with or without DMCA?

I know. That's why I never bought X or Y.

Now what about the romhack?

There are tons of things that Nintendo leaves alone. Like hundreds of ROM hacks still exist. The thing with AM2R is that it can be seen as trying to compete with Federation Force as well as the actual Metroid II on the eShop, existing official Metroid games. It's like if someone remade Super Mario 64 and began distributing it for free the same month the next 3D Mario was coming out. Or like with Project M's community actively discouraging people to play Brawl or Smash 4.
