If you weren’t aware, Sakurai posts daily photo updates of the Smash Bros. 4 game on Miiverse and also on the Smash Bros official website. Although sometimes the shots can be a bit mediocre, Masahiro Sakurai has posted some important information on minor technical changes to the fighting system. If you can’t see what it says from the image, check out what he had to say!

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.
What do you guys think about the changes?
Just wondering XD
I'm not sure what to think about them.
It sounds like it MIGHT add a little bit more depth, or at least challenge, to edge games, since simply edge-hogging and forgetting once they're gone will be harder to pull off this time...
But purists who hate change might use it as a reason to go back to Melee.
I guess we'll just have to wait and see if it has a good or bad effect in the long run, but right now I'm optimistic.
Grab controls are no longer affected by damage percentage... in other words, this got streamlined and "more accessible to non-hardcore players" as I understand it.
I hate it already. Grab will be so useless.
