It's the highest grossing media franchise of all time, what sort of question is this?

[–] umbrella@lemmy.ml 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

this is what baffles me. its already a huge hit, why bully fans for even more money?

im sure a big part of this success comes from fans doing things like that for free out of sheer passion for it, and nintendo just comes along to stop it....

Yeah it's literally free marketing for them and they're crushing the community.
