For once I can see their side for removal.
Nintendo is a harsh mistress and would go for the nuke option.

Unfortunately DMCA is a thing. Nintendo's lawyers would be the one to delist their website if they don't delist these mods.
But holy shit this Nexus defender on reddit

Its hosted on Giphy. And Nintendo does not seem to care about Giphy.

Why blame them ?
The Pokémon models are ripped off the Switch games, not made from scratch, Nintendo would have come to them is they did not remove it...

They either do it now or Nintendo will knock soon. That goes for every game, not only Palworld.

Yeah, can't really blame Nexus for anything here. Nintendo doesn't take that kind of thing lightly.

Hundreds of games have mods with characters from other games,
Of course Nintendo’s going to Nintendo.

Wasn't someone suing Nexus for allowing the Spider-Man 2 middle-west mode?

Nintendo is awful.
The worst is that Nintendo themselves don't even offer any good modern pokemon experience, everything they release is cheap trash, and they forbid any fan who try to do something with it too. (Not defending Palworld, I'm just talking in general)

Except Pokemon isn’t made by Nintendo. Blame gamefreak for their shit ability to make a polished game, they have only had nearly 20+ years to try.

Okay but did they charge money for those Skyrim or Minecraft mods?

Are they charging for the pokemon mod? Does nexus charge for any mods?

The way Nintendo tends to work when it actually comes to mods is pretty much "free and on a website that doesn't somehow contain a shit ton of ads, I sleep. Anyone making any form of money even if it's not directly, because the hosting site has ads on it, DMCA". An example I come to often is the Mario 64 multiplayer mod. They DMCA'd it when it was hosted on a site with ads, but the creators moved it and never heard from Nintendo again. You can still download it for obvious emulation and even use a version for the PC version of Mario 64 that they also don't remove.
That all said, they were distinctly charging for this Pokemon mod

Ah I see, yeah then totally understandable to remove it, I hadn't heard anything about it being a paid mod. It's totally understandable then to go after it. I heard it was on nexus and figured it was free like everything else on nexus
AREYOUOKAY?

“I was totally gonna release it for free but now I can’t!” is just a cop out for him not getting his way of getting easy money out of basically model swapping.

Were they, actually? Genuinely asking. I'm not finding any indication in these articles that this guy ToastedShoes was charging money for his mod. Was it like a Patreon exclusive mod at first or something? I don't think you can paywall mods on Nexus, as far as I know.

Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
They should remove all half assed mods using ripped assets without permission. But if someone actually models/textures/rigs all Pokemon and puts them in (any, like Monster Hunter) game, that'd be cool to see (and it'd swiftly get taken down so hopefully it wouldn't be advertised prior to release).

Just release in the wild. It’s not like it has to be exclusive to Nexus. Greedy bastards.
