I really hope that Pocketpair wins their case against Nintendo. It's pretty ridiculous that game mechanics as generic as using a creature for a glider are somehow able to be patented by Nintendo.

I don’t think it would work in a non-Japan jurisdiction. It’s stupid AF. I’m pretty sure they didn’t even file some of the patents until after Palworld released.

I think the patents were technically filed before the release, but they weren't approved until after the release.
