Nintendo vs Blockbuster Entertainment (1987)

 

Nintendo took legal action against Blockbuster for renting out NES games. Nintendo lost.

Being sore losers they, then, accused Blockbuster of copyright infringement because they rented out the games with photocopies of the instruction manuals. They won that case.

Small victories, I guess.

 

The book Game Over goes into greater detail about this and many other Nintendo cases. Some more petty than the others.
