Ah, that's easy. It takes time for them to notice things. Remember that Chrono Trigger fan game? They were...what? In the Alpha stage? Almost done? Let's not forget some other things, like the guy who was putting himself through college by creating Fallout laser rifles, of which I have one of the few he ever built before Bethesda got wind of it. You know what it took? A news report, like the one that was here on the Escapist. Without that, it could be months before a big group takes notice, even years.Chimpzy said:Hmm, didn't expect this project to ever get this far. I was pretty sure Nintendo would've put the kibosh on it by now. Maybe it flew under their radar somehow?
You mean to tell me the big players don't waste resources that could be better used elsewhere by keeping a massive fulltime staff on hand whose only job is to scour the web day in, day out for anything that might rustle their corporate overlord's jimmies? That is very disappointing.FalloutJack said:Without that, it could be months before a big group takes notice, even years.
Evil as some of these people seem to be, the product would not reach anywhere close to a finished product if they did, and I would not have a laser rifle, so...yeah.Chimpzy said:You mean to tell me the big players don't waste resources that could be better used elsewhere by keeping a massive fulltime staff on hand whose only job is to scour the web day in, day out for anything that might rustle their corporate overlord's jimmies?

The hosting site is still up. Either it's really Nintendo or some random ruining the fun.Ezekiel said:They already did.LegendaryGamer0 said:All I can say is that I'm happy but also sad because Nintendo is likely to wipe it from the Internet.
Back it up!

The Metroid Database is a Metroid fansite that isn't directly tied to the AM2R developer, who as of yet hasn't received a DMCA or C&D.Ezekiel said:They already did.LegendaryGamer0 said:All I can say is that I'm happy but also sad because Nintendo is likely to wipe it from the Internet.
