I have reinstalled the game on my Steam Deck, only to notice all images in the database have been removed!

I have read absolutely no news on this, and looking it up only the original takedown for the Pokemon Switch games come up and I even remember then still being up after those were removed.

When did this happen? This is a PC game!

    Not really a Steam deck issue, but I know Nintendo does a lot of copyright strikes on Steamgriddb images.

    this happens a lot on steamgriddb. Nintendo takes down a lot of stuff from the website, but I would just skip over the ones taken down and find one from a more recent uploader.

    its why I try to keep an eye on the images I’ve uploaded just in case Nintendo feels like they can stop me. I just re-upload when they do the silly takedown nonsense.

    they can’t stop us. just grab another that has been recently uploaded for your game art.

      Unfortunately it seems not much is left, and who originally uploaded didn’t still. The game is not that popular unfortunately it’s a quite dead f2p game actually.
