πŸ’œ creativity with corporate IPs should be encouraged not shunned and fangames shouldnt be taken down just because they use some fucking jpegs from another video game and that is my final fucking take on this matter, it is wrong to take this shit down, i don't care what anyone else says.

"they were asking for this" no they fucking weren't. they were asking to make something fun. i've had enough

never forget that draconian forever-copyright is a corporate corruption of the original concept of copyright: to grant authors a time-limited monopoly on their own work in order to make the arts a viable way to make a living, back in the age when you'd license your work to a company with a printing press and not want to compete with some other printing press's unauthorized copies of your own work undercutting you. there's nothing natural about a world where the characters and media we and our parents grew up with aren't ours to remix by now.

But, you see -- I should preface this by noting I'm being EXTREMELY sarcastic here, if it's not clear already -- the trouble is the Rhythm Studio devs were actually doing something with the Rhythm Heaven IP, and Nintendo's terribly afraid of things Being Done with their inactive franchises.
