Posting this before Fusion to be an ass

Some fan made Star Fox crap.

Place your bets now as how soon it will before Nintendo steps on this and rubs it into the dirt.

I'm a bit in the dark here, can someone enlighten me of what Nintendo has done to other fangames based on their properties?

UHMEEEEBA

Usually nothing but this has gained enough of a recognition they'll probably send a cease and desist and some point.

The FreeSpace Open engine is a wonderful thing.

Here's the mod's home page.  I didn't post it here because what point do I have posting -fangames- in a MUGEN forum?


Oh, yeah, Nintendo doesn't C&D many fan-based projects.  Metroid Prime 2D was shaping up to be a direct copy of the original (but not 3D) and they never sent a C&D.  The endless amounts of Mario fangames don't seem to stir their lawyers either.

Ocarina of Time 2D, which, while they got a Cease & Desist, you could say that they were going to get it anyway, since they were doing a direct remake of Ocarina of Time in 2D form, carrying over the story elements.

But since Shadows of Lylat appears to have an original story of it's own, I highly doubt Nintendo will come down on it.

Now, if what you posted were a fangame based on a Square franchise... That'd be a different story altogether.
