@MochaKoffee It's a crazy position for them to take when other gaming companies have had no problem making fan created emulation official for use in their competitions.
I get that the Smash scene has been tainted recently, but this is such a severe blow when literally all Slippi does is make playing the game online a modern experience. Something Nintendo should be thrilled that someone figured out for them.
@maolfunction I mean, not really, lol. There is no reason to believe Nintendo would want to have their name next to a project like Slippi. Especially when it's going to lead so swiftly to people pirating .isos.
It sucks, but I'm mostly just saying that it's not entirely unexpected, especially when Nintendo was previously a sponsor of the event.
@MochaKoffee It's not unexpected that a mega corporation liken Nintendo wouldn't want to devote resources to a project for a 20 year old game, it just flies in the face of the fan culture they've purposely cultivated.
