Nintendo recently shared the news that they’ll be releasing their first of five mobile games this year and it looks just like the gentle, sweet little venture one might expect. But is it going to have the legs to carry it for the long term? Or will the novelty quickly wear off?

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.
I'm definitely keeping an open mind... But I think that's my naive love and faith in Nintendo. But only time shall tell now!
If they are willing to go mobile, why is it blasphemy that they come to PC? I would love Nintendo games on PC. Sony does it. Microsoft does it. Why not Nintendo? Emulators are fine and dandy, but playing some of the new catalog on PC would be enticing and get Nintendo more customers.
It's their first app and it's not even out. I really think it's too early to make any kind of assessment on their mobile strategy.
