With Nintendo announcing a 2D version of its latest handheld, Marcus Mac Dhonnagáin looks at whether the 3D gaming experiment has died?
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 🤷♂️
No, the 3ds is selling faster than cocaine did in the 80's. The problem wasn't 3d, it's just that small kids couldn't enjoy the 3d portion due to it effecting their vision (or so i've been told). So I guess Nintendo thought-up of the 2ds so that families could buy the same system but for a $50 discount if their kid wasn't gonna use the 3d slidder anyway. Besides, it's a good bargain if you ever break the screen or hinges off of your current 3ds (if u own one), since you can still buy a 2ds if you don't wanna spend the money to buy a replacement 3ds.
I'm not the biggest fan of Iwata's handling of Nintendo, but I actually think that people are failing to see the simplistic convenience of the 2ds. It really is a good idea, if u don't like it, then buy a normal 3ds. If you don't like that either, then just buy a Vita, or play cell phone games, or just plain stfu. Quit hating on something that probably wasn't meant to be mass produced in large numbers anyway--it's a convenient alternative. Simple.
nope it means that things that aren't always +necessary should be OPTIONAL
are u listening MS?
I think the 3DS sales speaks for it self. Fire Emblem is a Masterpiece in stereo.. 2ds is being advertised for kids. But of course theres going to be people out there that don't read or listen and get all confused.
3DS sales speak for themselves. It's just the kids who can't use the 3D because it's not good for they're eyes.
Good article, 3D Gaming Sucks (sony,ms,nintendo)
