kaizokunami writes "A company named Interlink Electronics, Inc., creator of interface devices has filed a suit in US District court against Nintendo of America, claiming the Nintendo the trigger on the bottom of the Wii controller infringes on their patent. The article includes images submitted with the patent application." From the article: "The complaint alleges that the trigger on the bottom of the Wii controller infringes on Interlink Patent No. 6,850,221 (Trigger Operated Electronic Device), which the company secured on February 1, 2005. Nintendo president Satoru Iwata first presented the Wii controller to the public not too long after that date, during the 2005 Tokyo Game Show."
Well you and yours said the same thing to the Iraqis... and look where your attitude is getting you there. Think about it. Now America is irrelevant anywhere in the middle east. Are you trying to do that all around the rest of the world? It is a shame because like one poster said, America is/was a pretty good place. Now selfish and short sighted assholes like you who refuse to look reality in the face are ruining it. Careful stepping over the sick poor guy on the sidewalk on your way to your right wing Christian fundamentalist church, he has to get a good nights sleep so he can make some more Nikes for you in the morning.
