Forza Horizon 6 includes a radio host line that mocks Nintendo's legal stance regarding Pokemon. The host tells players to 'snap 'em all' and then references 'that Japanese collecting game we're not allowed to name for legal reasons.'
Radio host delivers a playful jab
The line appears in the game's radio banter. It does not name Pokemon directly but clearly alludes to it. The comment is a jab at Nintendo's reputation for aggressive legal protection of its intellectual property.
Playground Games developed Forza Horizon 6. The game is set in Japan, according to the radio host's mention of visiting midnight cityscapes and scenic mountain sights.
The reference was reported by GamesRadar+ and a user on X named wxrry on May 16, 2026. Playground Games has not commented on the line.
