    Sega should sue them for intellectual property violation, given that the MAGA-ized logo still has the SEGA shout.

      Sega never goes after their fans for their fangames, but they could bring the whole “Genesis does what Nintendon’t” full circle and attempt to sue the Trump admin…

      Though given Sega’s dogshit legal skills with regards to Archie and Ken Penders, they might as well just ignore it.

        Absolutely. I work in the industry, and one of my predictions for the coming years is a further commercialization of games as the cost of development falls, either the actual dev or just plain entrance cost. More places will make micro games to sell things, like mobile game ads for every day businesses. I was saying to my wife, I expect politicians and weirder avenues to take up games as a means of engaging with audiences.

        I sincerely hate that this is one of the first examples of what I imagined.
