Those pesky pirates.
Yeah..."pirates". Sure...the timing is just too convenient, but so it goes.
Not a popular opinion, but why the hell do people make these crazy "fan games" when they know damn good and well that they'll get shut down? Why not just make their own game? Why labor over something like this for years when you know it's someone else's IP? I just don't understand people. Perhaps people really do like pain.... Heh, heh.
Good. If it's better than the mainline games, so be it (It's not). Same with AM2R. It's not their fault that fans are making what fans want. For free.
People need to stop it with the cheeky "pirates" posts, it was known that there were people outside of the dev team with pre-release builds of Prism for testing/streaming purposes.
I personally don't see it as much different from fan fiction or fan art (which is something that Nintendo has unfortunately also been clamping down on lately). They do it because they want to.
Off the top of my head, also Uranium and AM2R, aka every one that has gotten any media attention at all.If by "every single one" you mean Chrono Trigger: Crimson Echoes and Pokémon Prism, AKA two out of hundreds if not thousand.
And the reason they announce it is to recruit people to help them develop the game in the first place.

Prism was supposed to be a conversion patch. After it got shut down, a full patched ROM was leaked.Were this a "full conversion patch" or something that required Crystal to run that's at least somewhat different, but this a stand-alone ROM, yes? That's just piracy.
Considering Nintendo, it's not out of the question.unless you truly think Nintendo are filled with dinosaurs who have no idea how to access the internet.
Obviously. But they're ultimately just wasting time, then they get all pissed off that X company told them to stop working on it.

Nuthin personal am i right?Well too bad, I don't care.
Why would Nintendo blacklist Kotaku?Is Kotaku blacklisted by Nintendo or do they want to be?
Passion breeds a willingness to say "fuck it"Obviously. But they're ultimately just wasting time, then they get all pissed off that X company told them to stop working on it. I mean, they have to see that coming from a mile away. Sure, they want to, but watching something that you're working on get thrown to the curb due to legal reasons sucks, so why even go down that road? It's just a waste of time and resources. As someone who has/is working on a game, I couldn't imagine losing all that time over something like that.
