Nintendo wants us to think that Apple will never make a dent in the video game industry, no matter how many $0.99 Apps flood the market, but we know better. With iPad and now the iPad 2, Steve Jobs and co. did something the Big N achieved with the Wii in 2006: disrupt the market.

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.
STOP IT YOU IDIOTS APPLE WILL DO NOTHING TO GAMING! GAMERS WILL ALWAYS WANT A GAMING SYSTEM NOT A GIANT IPOD TOUCH WITH BETTER GRAPHICS! The 3DS has way better graphics then Apples products and it's a GAMING SYSTEM.
I love the part where they say the 3DS is to expensive and are comparing it to an iPad that at the cheapest is 400 bucks... 150 more... you think parents are going to be like oh... hmm... I should get my child and ipad instead its 150 more and breaks easier. /facepalm
