damn...

“The complaint demands that Nintendo be enjoined and restrained from further infringing on the patent, presumably by taking the Wii off the market. Furthermore, the filing demands that the court order Nintendo to pay Interlink three times the assessed damages, including prejudgment interests and attorney fees..."

taking the wii off market!!! wut the hell! so wut does this mean for everyone who’s got one already!?!

I seriously doubt that’s going to happen. The patents that those companies are claiming are being infringed on don’t even have to do with video games.

but the wiimote is wut makes the Wii... isn’t it? surely it’s not the graphics, the media, or it’s internet. without the Wiimote, they’d have to revamp their games.

Yes, the Wii remote is what makes the Wii. But how can Nintendo get sued for the Wii remote when the “patent infringments” don’t have the same use as the Wii remote?

It’s ridiculous. These two uknown companies, which I don’t even think they have their own websites, come and try to sue both Nintendo and Microsoft thinking that they lost money because because of them when their claimed “patent infringments” don’t have to do anything with what those companies do.

They are going to go even more bankrupt now. Because they wasted all their money on laywers.

the fact of the matter is that nintendo copied something that wasn’t there’s to begin with and called it theirs. now they’re being sued for it. simple.

interlink didn’t make a remote... they deigned the technology inside of it. nintendo then used that tech in the remote without asking... get it?

But those two companies claim that they are losing business because of Nintendo, but the Wii remote functionalities are being used for something completely different than those two unknown companies are claiming to lose business for, so isn’t that propoganda? Can’t Nintendo counter sue for that?

wait, their suing them for the remote design, right? looks like a worst case scenario would be them redesigning it. no big deal. i doubt it will come to that, but that is probably the worse it would come to.

I seriously doubt Nintendo will lose this case. With the Wii remote being used for a completely different function I don’t even see how that unknown company can complain about losing sales.

How are they getting pwned if the case isn’t even finished yet?

This thread is dead as well as the whole Nintendo issue about them getting sued. Nintendo should sue Interlinks for being dumbasses.

i think they are getting sued becuase it has rumble in it, but i thought immerision copy righted that, also you can copy right a rectangle shape, and they couldnt of copy righted motion sensing becuase they never made it.
