Flipnotes is coming to the 3ds. I got this email as follows:
An announcement from Hatena Co., Ltd. and Nintendo Co., Ltd. to all Hatena ID holders
using Flipnote Hatena on the Nintendo DSi:
We are preparing for you to be able to use Flipnotes posted on Flipnote Hatena
in Flipnote Studio 3D, a downloadable application for the Nintendo 3DS system scheduled
for release in summer 2013.
To use Flipnotes posted to Flipnote Hatena on the Nintendo 3DS system, they need to be
transferred to the Nintendo DSi Library in Flipnote Gallery: World, the community
for Flipnote Studio 3D.
You can choose whether you want to transfer your Flipnotes to the Nintendo DSi Library.
Please do this by 31st May 2013, having read the important information below.
Flipnote Hatena internal setup page: http://flipnote.hatena.com/...
Please note, unless you indicate otherwise by 31st May 2013,
all Flipnotes will be automatically transferred to the Nintendo DSi Library.

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.
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.
