The Wii U's new app, the Miiverse, will change social gaming as we know it.
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 🤷♂️
That's fine and dandy, but isn't actual online gaming closer to what Nintendo calls "gamer interaction?"
I appreciate what Nintendo is trying to do with Miiverse, but I strongly feel as though establishing a proper online network is much more important than treading new waters without strong legs to stand on.
How about having your own app or website for cheats, tips, and whatever stuff that is beneficial to gamers Nintendo, Sony, M$ for your own gamers in your own network that will make a lot of "social" gaming traffic if you ask me!
Have your own fanart site instead of deviantart.
If Apple have its way on video gaming they will enclose everything gaming related in their own iEcosystem "walled garden" and reap all the benefits for themselves. That is "greed" that makes a lot of sense.
Instead of going to gamefaqs, youtube, facebook etc. you can contain your own fanbase inside your own platforms.
That is the whole idea why Apple revolutionized things. Now that will be revolutionary!
The thing I like about the Wii U is the simple integrations it brings with TV, video streaming, social interactions, game interactions and family interactions.
The Wii U is in a good position much like facebook was to expand its industry and not only make it simple but aquire an attachment it to it. If Nintendo can gather a nice attachment to the Wii U then it really wouldn't matter what Sony or Microsoft release in the next 2-3 years because the Wii U will not be leaving anyones entertainment centers because of the simplicity and ease of use its fully integrated features bring to the tv.
That is of course speaking as IF the Wii U can aquire a high attachment rate in the next 2-3 years.
I have a good feeling about Miiverse, i think it will integrate well its looking good so far i like the direction nintendo are going with this
