    Lol this is hilarious. “Coward”. Have you ever looked down the barrel of an enterprise legal team, and seen just the opening bill to defend team? I haven’t, but I’m aware that it is a huge and expensive endeavor and “bravery” has nothing to do with it.

      You mean what Pocketpair is doing right now? They’re both businesses who should have known they would come up against Nintendo at some point.

        Pocket pair has money. Pal world was a smash hit and sold millions of copies and they could still be buried under legal fees by a behemoth like Nintendo via bullshit like repeated appeals

        Edit: in the us at least, not sure if this is suit is in Japan only, seems it was filed in tokyo. See the downfall of gawker for a US example

        The claims are very different. I’m not moving the goalposts here, it’s critical to the situation and was always available information.
