PSN account needed to play Palword incoming
…This is not a publishing deal for Palworld the video game, or an acquisition by Sony, rather an attempt to make the most of the game’s huge popularity with non-video game products, such as merchandise and music…
Looks like we’re safe from any forced PSN account requirements. For now…
Players (suspicious): “So what is it you’re doing here, Sony?”
Sony: “Merchandizing.”
Players: “Merchandizing? What’s that?”
Sony: “Merchandizing! Come, I’ll show you. Open up this door.”
Sony: “Come, take a look! We’ve got the game’s logo on everything. Merchandizing, merchandizing… Where the real money from the game is made.”
Sony: “Palworld the t-shirt! Palworld the cell phone case! Palworld the laptop stickers! *Palworld, the flamethrower!”
Fwooosh!
Sony: “The kids love it.”
Sony: “And lastly…”
Gestures to a life-size Lovander doll
Sony: “Palworld the mega-doll! Pose it however you want! Stand it dramatically in a window! Lay it in bed and use it as a pillow!”Sony (smugly): “But we know what you’re really going to use it for. You naughty little hand-holder, you.”
Spaceballs is a timeless classic.
These guys won the lottery and I’m excited for them.
Now the lawsuit from Nintendo will come…
The fact that they haven’t issued lawsuits already makes it more difficult to start them now.
They go after small youtubers to get a few pennies, whale eating tiny krill. They are very likely salivating about a cut of the meat from Palworld, they would have sued in a heartbeat if they could.
