Nowhere in the article did it say WHAT the infringement was...
Betting it was some really obscure napkin sketch for a device to smell distant objects, probably deemed void by the sweat smudges...

SilentNegotiator3641d ago

Added an alt source that actually mentions it. Although it's ridiculously vague (probably why it was thrown out).

No real surprise there. Shouldn't there be a law against patent trolling like this?

There are people who PURPOSELY file vague patents ALL DAY EVERY DAY.

Eventually it's going to catch up to us or them and somebody is going to have to deal with it because it's getting a little stupid now.

Shysters are the worst.

Activemessiah3641d ago

One down, ∞ to go.

Let's face it, people are lining up to have a go at them.

I can understand what a large portion of Nintendo's operating cost is going towards.. *should have been a lawyer*

Good. Can't stand patent trolls.

thats so crazy haha.

it will never disappear.

darksky3d ago

The more they try to stop it, the more publicity it gets. The fact is that Yuzu will forever live on torrent and other sites. Nintendo is fighting an uphill battle.

Inverno3d ago

Another 8,500 will take their place. Smh

PRIMORDUS3d ago

There is nothing stopping these people from working on Yuzu clones and sharing them on torrent sites. Nintendo or anyone else cannot do shit about torrents or usenet.

lucasnooker3d ago

lol Nintendo keep fighting this but it never ends. Why do they feel the need to persist? I guess they are in too deep now they have to

Super Mario 64 DS: Remakes Done Right

Super Mario 64 DS was offered as a launch title for the Nintendo DS, a remake of the classic platform game with a few original tricks.

Chard5d ago

Not with those D-pad controls

CDbiggen5d ago

Needs more appreciation. I never had an N64 so this was what I played. Sure the Yoshi hat mechanic at first is a slog but you unlock Mario and the others for real and then it takes off. Personally I never had an issue with the controls. Can't forget the mini games and the 4 player rumble over download play.

kevco335d ago

Indeed, as stated in the article there were tonnes of control options and very much a 'take whatever you like, leave the rest' attitude to most of the game's extras.

Infinite Space: The Story Of A Forgotten Space Opera And Sega's Negligence

Space opera fans deserve a chance to experience the vastness of Infinite Space, and Sega needs to make up for its mistake.

ZeekQuattro13d ago

I still go back to Infinite Space from time to time. Probably the most underrated game I ever played.

CDbiggen13d ago

Felt like I was the only person who bought and played this lol
