Replying to Phijkchu_Cynnydaquil #vinnyg
I am reading that apparently it was some trolling group false DMCAing things and Gaary just overreacted thinking Nintendo was coming after him
Amazing
wow.... that's actually hillarious
Apparently the same group is going after SFM models now
That makes more sense
no way Nintendo would randomly do this after years of not doing this
idk, I liked the theory that skibidi toilet forced their hand
they were terrified of what would happen if Mario fell into the skibidi-verse
true
garry (@garrynewman) on X
I have been assured that the takedowns have been verified by Nintendo as legit, so this will now continue as planned. Sorry. 🫸🍄🗑️
twitter.comLmfao
thats even more biazzare?
dude, what a faggot
hey community, here is our official correspondence with Nintendo
***attach email***even if you're going to roll over,
Spooky I hope to god he gets bullied into doing that, and it turns out he got tricked by a fake email
yes
Dan K 🐀 has a take lmao
I am 99% sure those "this email is cofidential" things are legally not enforcable
they cannot compell you not to share an email without making you sign a non disclosure agreement
it's also not true, a DMCA by its nature cannot be sealed
nor can the majority of civil legal docs
I think he means the email corespondance itself
not the DMCA
???
are people retarded
how can an email be confidential
it WAS SENT TO YOU
but spooky, they have a bumper that says it cannot be shared
it must be legally binding
dude, people are retarded
also
this whole thing is 100% a scam
having barely looked into it
it's either a rogue Nintendo employee without higher-up approval, or a troll
If they do that and it turns out this is true
that is up there for funniest reason this is happening
genuinely, if Garry actually just retarded?
I assumed he was not an idiot, you know OG gamedev and all
He has no reason to comply either way, he doesn't host anything, Valve does
Nor should he be telling modders to "help" him by taking their own files down based on their best guess
Nor, should this be a thing anyway, because they are non-commercial models used in a way that I would argue is legally allowed (or at the very least is not settled law)
I'm 90% sure he's being tricked as well, and yet its the random people in his mentions that are going to greater lengths than he seems to be in order to disprove this
Nintendo could DMCA those individually
those more likely, though I'm not sure it's settled either way
which is why valve has a DMCA system in the first place
Garry has zero obligation to do anything
that's the part that makes this a scam imo
his base game just uses HL2 assets, which valve allows
Nintendo works with Valve all the time on DMCAs
for all workshop games
Yeah, begin two of the biggest companies in the gaming industry, they probably have a very steady channel of communication
there is no reason Nintendo would use the normal DMCA system
The amount of people who are like "yep, garry confirmed it, Nintendo did this. You guys defending them are stupid" is hilarious
