Nintendo. In the gaming world, they are well-known enough to be referred to as “The Big N”. Nintendo, for almost as long as the world has known that the company has existed, has been synonymous with video games.
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 🤷♂️
Interesting read.

why is it an accomplishment to be inb4 kratosgirl?
So the crux of this article is you are blaming Nintendo because 3rd parties don't want to make games for them.
And when they continue to make great games in the same models as the one they made before with some enhancements that's not enough.
You want the best developer in the world as you claim to play follow the leader (which I guess is anyone but them) so they become like everyone else?
I am a bit sour that i find good titles of wii games are few and far inbetween compared to ps3 or 360 releases. But if nintendo hadnt bucked up and did something about their position they would have surely failed. Last gen the gamecube was more powerful than the ps2 and cheaper but hardcores still didnt buy it and third parties largely ignored it. The lack of core gamer support put nintendo in this position where they had no choice but to tend to casuals or go down. Now that they are back on top they choose to tend to the core gamer again. I am looking forward to alot more titles on my wii than my 360 (as MS is tending to casuals.) There is nothing to forgive Nintendo. Just get me my games and you will continue to get my money.
