Carl Daniel of TheKoalition.com writes: So, Nintendo are releasing a new console that is rumored to be slightly more powerful than the PS3? Why is this exciting news? Are we all forgetting that the PS3 has 6/7 year old tech flowing through its circuits. Shouldn’t the Big N, with their billions upon billions of dollars and 25+ years of experience, be aiming to blow the PS3 out of the water, not simply match it!
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 🤷♂️
No, not even close to doomed. Why should they be so much better? Nintendo has never needed to be better than the others to be at the top.
The gamecube didn't have online, like the xbox and ps2 did. It did just fine.
The wii got mediocre internet, and slightly updated graphics, while the ps3 and xbox focused on it. The wii outsold them both with its gimmick.
Now with the next gen, why should they be any better? They'll sell just as well.
To assume Nintendo is doomed because they aren't up-to-date is simply laughable. They never have been.
I'm going to sing the DOOM song now.
Anyways, nothing can really be doom until it comes out. Because we don't know if it will or won't be doom.
Look at motion gaming, alot of people didn't think it would take off but it did and then theirs 3D (Which some movies use it to get more money).
If PS3 becomes $199, it is doomed. but if it doesn't, Nintendo would force Sony/Microsoft to released new consoles and therefore Nintendo would win the sales race again.
but honestly I don't Nintendo could strike gold again with project cafe if indeed its a gimmick. they already losing their core fan base especially with the news of no harddrive.
This E3 will decide the future of gaming.
