Nintendo vs Pocketpair could come to US soil
It should be illegal to apply for patents with the express purpose of suing someone else over what is now prior art.
Pretty sure it is. The patent office will generally give you anything you want tho and let the expensive courts settle the fallout.
Kinda wild that they still rejected almost all of the patents tho, like holy shit that's impressively incompetent on Nintendo's part.
Yes, but how does that make rich people more money?
It does? Rich people or companies they own might want to produce things that infringe on patents too; not obvious that this has anything to do with "rich people" one way or the other.
Nah, let them file all they want, so long as they pay for them. If they're bogus patents, they're rejected and it's basically just a money transfer to the patent office employees.
This. You don't "negotiate" with the Patent Office. The courts decide whether patent infringement has occurred. You "negotiate" with THEM.
Nintendo, you don't just get to file patents after a competitor makes a better product than you, and then try to use those to shut your competitor down.
I think we all know they didn't stop Palworld because they saw it grow and wanted them to get more money first.
It never ceases to amaze me how people will see some corporation do something shady that is already bad and still find it in themselves to come up with some crazy conspiracy theory about it anyway, even if the conspiracy isn't any worse than the demonstrable thing that's actually happening.
Or how they fail to mark their sarcasm, I guess, if that's what this is.
Yeah.. fuck you... my kid will be playing emulators on linux 🐸
Gonna go to Nintendo land in Japan and leave a bunch of emulator software around on USBs
