How the hell can one have patent of ‘catching a creature through aiming’ or even more crazy to me ‘riding a creature’ in games? Both concepts exist in so many games and even in real life. I mean did Nintendo never hear of horses?
My lay understanding was that patents were invalidated if prior art could be found before the application?
If that was true then no patent Nintendo applied for after palwold demonstrated its use of a technique would hold water. This demonstration would be easy to verify as occurring at the time of release of preview videos, the games release, content patches, etc
So I must be wrong if they think JP7545191B1 might be the one.
That’s probably true in normal countries. Japanese patent office is… Less than normal if these things can happen.
suing over an amended patent is utter bullshit. get fucked nintendo.
May your Ls be massive, and your wenches dry, Nintendo.
