Meh. Not like they can't pay. But still, they should have researched it a little more, or that other company shoulda made an effort to get the idea out there so it was known.

Tyler-based Anascape also sued Microsoft Corp. for patent infringements on game controllers but reached an agreement with the company before the start of the trial against Nintendo, The Lufkin Daily News reported.

Microsoft said in a statement that terms of the settlement reached May 1 were confidential.




Hmmm... This looks a little sus. What is microsoft up to this time??? Quick! To the Coulbe-mobile!

Sarge, you don't understand law, do ya? The longer you wait, the more you can sue for (the product has been out longer). It was purely intelligence on their part for waiting. But also kind of a-hole-y.

This is crap, but Nintendo can pay anyways. Mainly I think everyone is suing everyone for money.

Business only cares about money; that's life. Everything done in life is someway fixated around it.
