The Pokémon Go which was released in July this year had shattered all the records in the gaming industry. However, one app which was overshadowed by the success of this game was Pokémon Uranium.
The fan-made Pokémon game, Pokémon Uranium was launched by its creators earlier this year on 6th August exactly after 1 month of the launch of official Pokémon game. After being released, Pokémon Uranium got more than a half million downloads within its first month.
The game was in development mode for more than 9 years, this game became a hit among gamers after its launch. Sadly, the makers of Pokémon Uranium were legally stomped on by Nintendo, and had to take down the game from the Internet after a month of getting several DMCA notices citing the infringement of copyright.
Nintendo has been very possessive about it intellectual property. This is not the first time Nintendo has quashed fan-made games. Nintendo, this year, asked the AM2R (Another Metroid 2 Remake) also to take down the game.
As per Apps Prison, this game and AM2R (Another Metroid 2 Remake) have had their nomination “Best Fan Creation” rescinded by The Game Awards.
Pokémon Uranium was available for Windows and Mac.
