Paul Gale Network has news from Satoru Iwata on the 3DS console connectivity, software pricing strategies, SD card support, piracy protection, reason for increase in power, and more

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.
Nintendo knows what they're doing!
If Big N makes these same good moves with Wii 2 or whatever they can't go down.
future proof!
I just hope that Paul Gale's interpretation on Satoru Iwata's price reasoning for 3DS games is on target with what they'll actually sell for. I'm ok with paying that but anything more.....I don't know. Then again if the game is amazing it doesn't matter portable or not. Quality gaming is worth spending more for.
smart piracy plan
