Something new Nintendo is sued by players!

[gastd]

Two US players filed a class-action lawsuit against Nintendo of America, alleging that the company would be "unjustly enriched" if it kept tariff refunds from the US government without passing them on to consumers!

Bold move, but these motherfuckers had enough spare change to buy a fucking MLB team. There's no way two randos can outlast them in court.

 

[KenaiPhoenix]

I mean is Nintendo, since Iwata passed away they whole moto is "become unjustly enriched"

I dont think this can pass

 

[RageBurner]

This is going to get nowhere fast. If it became a pattern and kept happening, then they might feel a dent, but they print money with Mario's face on it exactly to have hounds safeguard their interests.

 

[Majormachina]

Godspeed to those guys

They're not winning shit. Honestly, it's Microsoft they should be going after. Considering they help support certain war crimes and are part of the reasons those tariffs are there in the first place. Forget Nintendo. Nintendo never asked for this in the first place.

I hope more and more people dare to sue them, then Nintendo they'll see what it's like to be constantly sued. Go ahead and sue Nintendo, people!

Unfortunately, this is already dead on arrival. Unless they bought it from Nintendo directly. Now if it was Amazon or Walmart, Target or wherever they bought it from, they CAN actually get it from them...if they can prove it.

I thought the tariff stuff was taken out by some judge. Ugh... politic drama never ends.

why don't they sue Trump for making the tariffs in the first place? Am I even allowed to say his name? You guys edit the comments when I do. Fucking hell just admit the truth for once!

And what good will that do? Nintendo's laughing about it. And if these players are unlucky, they'll face a countersuit.They should have sued Trump instead.

nintendo mostly deserves it for their evil behavior but that sounds like a nonsense lawsuit to me lol

Nintendo has infinite money though. Joe consumer doesn't.

nah they really dont
they have alot of money but from what i know from living about 15 min outside of dc
theres been alot of shady accounting at blackrock/statestreet/vanguard firms
if you look at their losses they and their allies are down a few trillion
if i were nintendo id be lowering their games from 80 to 50 to 60
and being less greedy cuz theres a backlash brewing
and so far the corporations have been able to slow it down using lawfare/shady business practices/funds
that wont work forever.

if i were nintendo id be lowering their games from 80 to 50 to 60

I wish every AAA dropped under 60...

 

[bobsaget30]

I wish every AAA dropped under 60...

they do too lol they all got bought up by hedge funds if it makes you feel any better alot of the people who worked at the big AAA are making some really cool indie games/mods/their own companies
but the huge hedge funds lawfare the shit out of them
i dont get it man i think AAA would sell alot more copies at 40 50 60 etc
with more expansions and worthwhile dlc
over mtx
