Patents are very easy to submit/get, and almost impossible to defend. M$ for instance, issues thousands of patents a year - on just about everything they can. Nintendo has a number of patents relating to "pointing" technology, so if Sony tried to use a similar technique - Nintendo could drag them to court. |
Yeah, that patent for a 80gb PS3 didn't mean anything. And all the sudden Nintendo has the monopoly on "pointing " devices? Oh I see. Shouldn't Sony be already in court for having remotes for their TVs, then?
