Do you mean the one where they got sued by Tomita Technology for using the parallax barrier screen technology which Nintendo licensed from Sharp for use in the 3DS? Yeah, that just makes all kinds of sense. Nintendo licesned technology from a company that already has a parallax barrier screen technology (Sharp used it in their phones too) yet it is a license holder that gets sued by another company. You did know Nintendo liscend the rights to the 3D technology from Sharp and had them supply the display screens, didn't you? |
To be blunt, it doesn't matter if you like it or even if I like it, the fact is that Nintendo lost that case in court after it was ruled that the solution Nintendo used showed numerous similarities with an existing patent. Obviously, the judge felt that this had nothing to do with whatever patents Sharp or anyone else might hold. Now, maybe you know the details of the dispute, even though last I read they hadn't been revealed; regardless, if you want to argue the case, you're going to need to take it to Federal court. Complaining to me about it on a forum means nothing.
