"Iwata admits Nintendo had problems communicating what Wii U was about..."
What do you think? Game changer or just more of the same?
Video is an example of "Asymmetric Gameplay"
The rejection is non-final (and even when such rejections are labeled as “final”, the process is far from over, given that there can be, at minimum, an appeal to the Federal Circuit).
Good, as they should! A game mechanic like that shouldn't be locked behind a patent, and Nintendo didn't invent it either.
Nintendo wants to keep wasting money on bullshit lawsuits, real smart in this economy. They should put that money aside for other game projects. On the other hand, I don't care if they waste it all either, and they are screwed in the future maybe that will teach them a lesson.
Nintendo completed its share repurchase and set its secondary offering price at 8,347 yen ahead of March 16 delivery.
Nintendo filed a lawsuit in the United States Court of International Trade.
Nintendo of America is suing the United States government over the sweeping tariffs President Donald Trump put in place last year, according to a complaint filed Friday in the U.S. Court of International Trade and obtained by Aftermath.
The fact that you have ANY disagrees will forever baffle me. And to the (apparent) MAGA contingent that exists on this website, enjoy your 8-9 dollar gas.
Yes, they had better be pissed after Trump told them the way they rip off the USA is over.
LOL I read this on gaff, will they refund the money back to the gamers? highly unlikely. Didn't they just raise prices and pass it onto the gamers? Only Nintendo would send out the Ninjas to the US government.
That’s what I was thinking, imagine them winning hypothetically, getting a s**t load of money back which they would have lost if they hadn’t raised their prices and it’s business as normal.
It would just mean people paid more for no reason since they got the money back anyway.
A lot of companies partially passed the cost to consumers instead of all of it. They would still have to at least pay that back to gamers, but we know that won't happen. What's also sad is that prices won't come back down after the initial hike caused by tariffs.
People didn't understand the full repercussions of tariffs. That alone should have cost him the presidency if people knew it was a permanent price hike for consumers
Naw they should sue the government for forcing the tax to begin with. No one reasonably expects these companies to absorb the taxes. Many smaller companies tried and were shut down or faced to increase prices to try to maintain their business. The tariffs effect everyone.
I meant it mostly as a joke cause we all know the costs of these tariffs were passed onto the consumer. But it's seems no matter how vocal we are here in the states our "representatives" don't seem to care enough to represent us. And things are about to get worse.
The companies were doing what the law required then to do, the tariffs however were illegally implemented. Usually it's criminals we punish, you seem to have different ideas 🤷♂️
If it sells a lot yes! In the console (corporation land) world sales matter.. It doesn't matter if it's innovative. If it sells poor then no it's not a game changer. If it does the other consoles will follow. MS is kinda protecting there asses with their tablet.
Uncharted is not a game changer but call of duty was.
Though uncharted is a more innovative game. You don't see many Uncharted clones or heavy rain clones or god of war clones or mirrors edge clones.
Money comes first with on disk dlc & last with more dlc.
Marketing is really the most important thing at least in America.
May not like it but that is what is going on today. Black ops 2 coming. Think of the 3 or 4 most innovative games you can think of and add the sales together & black ops 2 will sell 10 Million more than that.
It's already a game-changer. Take a good look at Smart Glass, and the PS3-Vita combo.
When Nintendo wants to be, they can be great trend-setters (motion control, handheld gaming, ...not so much online, yet).
Really have to wonder how all this "unproven potential" talk is any different from the "dead at the starting line" crap. At least in the latter case something could be said are all of the 3rd party titles from the current gen versus Zombie U.
@mr_mike:
For the little its worth, Sony was talking about console and handheld combos since PS3/PSP.
Nintendo Always is
This has changed the game and in a good way. A tablet on the controller that you can use to play the game using the screen or your normal tv, that right there is a neat idea. Also you can use to surf the web and it's better that we get to interact better with the games.
