Summary:
- Gen10 is on the works
- Switch 2’s internal codename is Ounces
- GF and ILCA are co-producing a MP battle-focused game, codenamed Synapse
- source code for HG/SS and B2/W2, plus map editor for R/S/E were leaked
Conjecture: I wouldn’t be surprised if the TeraLeak in question wasn’t planned out by Nintendo and Game Freak, to distract people from the fact that Nintendo is trying to harass a competitor out of the market and suing emulators back and right.
Source code was leaked? This will be a great time for modders if they can get their hands on it.
Right, because a hacker getting vengeance for those abuses totally isn’t the narrative people would prefer.

Maybe, in the short term. But as people feel like the vengeance was successful, the topic gets its emotional conclusion. Then the focus shifts from how that leak popped up to the contents of the leak:
- code and map editors for really old (more than a decade old) games
- tidbits of info that might excite people about new games
Of course, I might be 100% wrong, and the leak might be actually the result of someone getting undue access to that content, or some insider getting pissed and leaking the info that they had at hand. I just think that Nintendo+GF+TPC are scummy enough to forge being leaked for their own benefit.
Scummy, yes. But are they competent enough for that? At underhanded public relations specifically? I feel like, if they ever listened to the sort of manipulator who’d suggest this, they’d stop strangling fan projects in the first place. Yuzu and maybe Palworld might plausibly have impacted their immense revenue, but there’s a pattern of hyperactive iron-fisted legal horseshit that’s gone on for decades.
30TB of the same game, rendered in different colors.
Everyone get out your tiny violins.
After mega evolution, z moves, protomorphosis (or however it is called), dynamax, …, now finally: Gigaleaking
