I hope it's a Pokemon MMO :messenger_beaming:

It seems like most of the names attached to that are Poople who worked on all the past games so it might be likely

Gaia is the codename for gen 10

After what they did with SV, they can farm easy money from those dumbos.
I honestly dunno why they didn't that sooner. Get ready for massive amount of microtransactions, but in a pokemon game. Selling itens, pokemons, xp itens, you name it. The kids from all world gonna be their target.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but code names have *absolutely nothing to do with features or hints about the system*.

In fact, that is the whole point of codenames, to be able to speak about them internally without revealing trade secrets or confidential information before it’s supposed to be revealed publicly.

The codename is Ounces or Oz because the switch 2 weighs 2 of them

First impressions, typical Japanese source code with function headers as if we were in 1995. However one must acknowledge it's not easy for a Japanese to work with English-based programming languages.

Fake or real?

If only I had bookmarked the post where I successfully predicted that we were getting a square box called Gamecube from its codename.

Pokemon MMO has the potential to be THE game.
Regarding code there are just some PHP scripts with user management, login, chat messaging, and character customization (hair, tops, bottoms and skin). The cool thing is that htere are some spreadsheets with a simple protocol definition (the communication between a client to server) and a plan.

MMO Mode: F Communication Interface Specifications by Hisanao Suzuki circa 2011. He worked for Square Enix I believe. It's a full specification for the messaging between server and client which would allow anyone to create their own client. However the spec is old so it might have changed quite a lot. I see Hisanao has given seminars regarding internet communications and C++/Objective-C programming languages so if he is not working for Nintendo he might have done a seminar for Nintendo employees explaining how to create a basic MMO client/server structure.

The important thing, though, they are using vim. Take that, Emacs!

IDK if you guys ever played Pokemon Scarlet and Violet online, but is an unstable zone with loads of disconnections, inconsistent.
Its impossible to even sustain a ranked battle without getting kicked from the servers. Game Freak don't have infrastructure to sustain an MMO like that.

A HECKIN POKEMON MMO BUT I ONLY WANT IT TO HAVE GEN ONE AND KANTO. I HAVE THREE KIDS AND AN UNFULFILLING MARRIAGE BUT I NEED THAT GEN ONE NOSTALGIA TO STOP ME FROM KILLING MYSELF BAYBEE!!!

A Pokemon MMO is the worst thing they could possibly do.
A Pokémon MMO is the only thing that can go WoW level of people (if is launched on PC)

They can hire Amazon or even Microsoft to run the servers and do the netcode. Depends just from the production team

The people leaking this and continuing to share and talk about it should find the decency to at least omit the name of the victim.

There could be serious ramifications from having their name out there.
