SEGAbits: " Anyway, without further ado…this is one I’ve been wanting to write since last week, when IGN’s Martin Robinson did an article celebrating the Amusement Vision-developed F-Zero GX. After reading his piece, what I had always thought in the back of my head was brought completely to the surface: I don’t think a new F-Zero game could be as good as GX was without SEGA’s Amusement Vision back at the helm."

Two-day event includes exclusive reveals, trailers and playable games on show floor.

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.

CEO Haruki Satomi said Sega will "take these lessons into account for future initiatives"
HD F-Zero on the Nintendo "Stream", please.
It'd be amazing.
GX was one of the most enjoyable games I played last gen. It would be a great idea for the next Nintendo console for sure
Do it do it do it do it!!!fpfk;;ds
They may as well save F-Zero for Wii HD, and please, no motion control bollocks.
