Well maybe some company should have sued. Maybe also just pulled out of the market entirely

Yeah for real Nintendo fucking sues people for sharing game music that they didn’t even sell to the public at the time.

Sues people for making fanart and crap too.

But there’s nothing they can do about this. They just can’t seem to figure out a solution!

Stop selling products in the US citing trumps bullshit. Play the PR game against him. He’s fantastically bad at it. Argue Trump is bad for your brand, the US costs more to do business in than it’s worth, that their economy is failing anyway so you’ll Never get that money back. Just swing wild. Even with the villain Nintendo became today, they could pull this off
