- minimaxir 8y agoLegit impressed it lasted that long without a Nintendo C&D.
- scrollaway 8y agoYou cannot C&D art style. They're not using copyrighted assets or names. "NES" isn't trademarked either and the project claims no affiliation to Nintendo.
- koboll 8y ago"NES" is trademarked. And they are using copyrighted assets, from Mario and Pokemon.
- tptacek 8y agoCopyrighted or trademarked? If they drew the Mario or the Pokemon (or got it from someone else who drew it and published it with a liberal license) it's not a copyvio.
- edoceo 8y ago"copyvio" A violation of copyright laws: copyright infringement. Was a new word for me, from Wiktionary
- pvg 8y agoIt is terribad.
- tptacek 8y agoIt's not a word, just a WP shorthand.
- pvg 8y agoYes. But this is not 'Nam and there are specific and precise rules. These constructs were already bad and ominous-sounding back when Orwell satirized them. Nazi, Stasi, politburo, COINTELPRO, manipedi. In some specialized contexts, like Wikipedia talk pages, they are arguably unavoidable but still bad. Out in the wild they are terribad.
- tptacek 8y agoI'm not defending it! I wrote it out of laziness. Though I find what you did to Walter Sobchak there more offensive. It's not 'Nam and there are rules, or it isn't and there aren't! This isn't 'Nam, 'pvg! There are rules! Am I the only one here who gives a shit about the rules!?
- scrollaway 8y ago"NES" is not trademarked, outside of "oils and essential oils". http://tmsearch.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=4806:hhioq9.2.15 http://tmsearch.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=4806:hhi... You're thinking of Nintendo Entertainment System. http://tmsearch.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=4806:hhioq9.4.2 http://tmsearch.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=4806:hhi... Happy to be proven wrong if you can find the matching one. As for the copyrighted assets… where? In the demo? Those aren't in the code FWICS. (Edit: and as tptacek says, they're not original assets either, which makes this a similar scenario as having a github logo in an icon font)
- hcs 8y agoHeh, apparently Nintendo did have NES, but it was cancelled in 2016: http://tsdr.uspto.gov/#caseNumber=74013303&caseType=SERIAL_NO&searchType=statusSearch http://tsdr.uspto.gov/#caseNumber=74013303&caseType=SERIAL_N...
- scrollaway 8y agoInteresting! I only looked at live trademarks, explains how I missed that. And I still don't know why the hell people are downvoting this whole thread without providing any actual retort…
- EpicEng 8y ago>You cannot C&D art style. Sure about that? https://www.google.com/amp/s/bgr.com/2018/05/24/samsung-apple-lawsuit-patents-rounded-corners-setllement/amp/ https://www.google.com/amp/s/bgr.com/2018/05/24/samsung-appl...
- scrollaway 8y agoYes quite sure. Design and art style are not the same thing. That is why your website using material design is safe, but you just might be c&d'd if your interface exactly replicates gmail 1:1.
- thought_alarm 8y agoApart from perhaps the mouse cursors, what could Nintendo possibly claim? It's Atari's arcade font from 1978 paired with some generic low-res graphics.
- MikeTheGreat 8y agoIt would be great to see screenshots / example files in the repo.

- amanzi 8y agoHome page with working examples linked to in the repo: https://nostalgic-css.github.io/NES.css/ https://nostalgic-css.github.io/NES.css/ (looks great!)
- MikeTheGreat 8y agoThat is awesome! Thanks for posting!
- rafaelvasco 8y agoWow looks great. I'll be using it in my projects.
- matte_black 8y agoSomeone should make a twitter clone in this NES style. Might be more peaceful and fun to read. Good exercise for a CS student just starting out.
- crispytx 8y agoTotally going to use this on the PhaserJS project I'm doing for work!
- themodelplumber 8y agoCool. These are always fun. I'd love to see a list of the more unique CSS frameworks like this. For example, I also like BOOTSTRA.386: https://github.com/kristopolous/BOOTSTRA.386 https://github.com/kristopolous/BOOTSTRA.386
