Nintendo fans are a special breed. Thinking AI will disrupt them by cloning games from videos is like thinking Six Flags is a threat to Disneyland.

It might be an anecdote, but the Gary Bowser decision got me to stop buying Nintendo, even though platformers are my favorite genre. My third video game was Super Mario World and I have every home Nintendo console from the SNES to the Switch and handheld from the Game Boy Color to the 3DS. It didn't hurt that my Steam Deck is also pretty good for games. I like having an open platform and it actually delivered on what I wanted with the OpenPandora.
