I'm not saying that its illegal or legal as I don't know.

But it is a fan made game and it is hosted on google code where Nintendo can put forward take down notices also the game has been around for quite a few years.

exactly my point!

what he's saying is that its ok for other maemo platforms to have as long as we keep quiet about it!

i'm not really a gamer as such, so wether it comes or not..not bothered!

now i dont need reminding of the rules.. if this thread has broken them, by all means delete it? my posts have done nothing wrong!

I'm not saying keep it on the 'down low' but it is something to keep in mind.

Don't put words in my mouth. I'm saying that bringing up something that shouldn't really be there in the first place is a good way to make that happen.

Google can and will take down that code without a moment's hesitation if Nintendo gives them notice. It clearly infringes their IP: trademark (Mario) as well as many copyrights (a lot of the game content is directly ripped from Nintendo titles). You could think of it this way: Nintendo already gave notice to Maemo/Nokia.

Anyway this thread is not going anywhere productive, so i am going to close it. If someone wants to port "Maemo Wars" as an IP-clean game, i'll be happy to support their effort and add a note to this thread to point interested people to their thread.
