I mean, people have already created the majority of their good games from scratch so...

[–] Xanis@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Oh I promise you that isn't the point.

[–] Eezyville@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 hour ago

Don't nobody want that trash codebase.

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.

[–] HowManyNimons@lemmy.world 4 points 36 minutes ago

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.

Source code is only for HG/SS and B2W2, so we still can't verify anything about the newer genes

Wasn't it true, but due to time not technical issues. Basically they keep redoing/remaking from scratch sprites instead of re-using them.

Somebody had to find out whether there really was a Mew under the truck in Red and Blue after all.

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 15 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Someone here recently blew my mind with this video, time for me to pay it forward.

[–] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 1 points 3 minutes ago

So the glitch never existed but he programmed it in ? Do I understand this right ?

[–] PunchingWood@lemmy.world 109 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Next headline "Hackers disappointed that the hacked source code is apparently just the same as the last 16 games"

[–] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 11 points 5 hours ago

I laughed way too hard at this

[–] parpol@programming.dev 84 points 8 hours ago (3 children)

Patent the code and sue Nintendo when they release the game.

[–] abfarid@startrek.website 33 points 5 hours ago

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.

Is there a remind me bot like reddit?

[–] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 2 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

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.

Terabytes of the same game, just in different colors.

[–] HowManyNimons@lemmy.world 4 points 35 minutes ago

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.

[–] yamanii@lemmy.world 23 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

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.

[–] catloaf@lemm.ee 30 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Clearly I've been out of the series too long, what the fuck?

[–] yamanii@lemmy.world 26 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago) (1 children)

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.

[–] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 6 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

We were once Pokemon?

We... Could have been the ones in pokeballs?

We could have... Mated with them?
