[新聞] Nintendo Sued for Patent Infringement
The Wiimote may not be as unique as we thought.
December 8, 2006 - In a surprising turn of events, Nintendo is already the
target of litigious action concerning its newly released Wii console.
California-based Interlink electronics has filed a complaint against Nintendo
for what it has deemed to be a case of copyright infringement over the
pointing functionalities of the Wiimote.
Gaming blog Kotaku has obtained a court filing, issued by the US District
Court of Delaware, which accuses Nintendo of infringing on a patent filed
previously by Interlink Electronics. The court filing claims that Interlink
Electronics has suffered "loss of reasonable royalties, reduced sales and/or
lost profits as a result of the infringing activities of" Nintendo.
The claim refers to a patent filed in February, 2005 which refers to a device
titled "Trigger Operated Electronic Device." The patent describes the advice
as a "trigger operated device in the nature of a pointing device for use with
an electronic system such as a computer." The patent continues to describe a
device which, on the surface, sounds an awful like the Wii's controller.
The complaint demands that Nintendo be enjoined and restrained from further
infringing on the patent, presumably by taking the Wii off the market.
Furthermore, the filing demands that the court order Nintendo to pay
Interlink three times the assessed damages, including prejudgment interests
and attorney fees. Additionally, the plaintiff is demanding a jury trial of
any and all issues pertaining to the case.
大意就是說 Wiimote 是抄襲已經擁有專利的類似東西..
如果告成的話, 會要求 Wii 消失在市場上..
