    Thank god, that was one of the more idiotic decisions in modern gaming history. Like the time the flappy bird dev took the game down right when it reached it’s peak. I dunno if HD2 will really recover from this blow, that might have been the high water mark for the game. I will probably give it a whirl again sometime, though.

      I mean afaik the Flappy Bird Dev felt bad about how addictive his game was and took it down because of that. Wouldn’t call that idiotic.

        He didn’t realize people were trolling when describing flappy bird as addictive. But I would beeline if you told me that the dev deleted the game because of Nintendo lawyers
