KirbyMeister Posted January 10, 2007 Posted January 10, 2007 http://www.joystiq.com/2007/01/10/console-makers-sued-over-analog-joysticks/ The patent office has reached a new level of stupid - payola stupid. My commentary: There's so much prior art out there... this lawsuit won't last 2 days. Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft are laughing quietly. Quote
The Damned Posted January 10, 2007 Posted January 10, 2007 Two of the companies being sued are Japanese. Can't they just hire some ninjas to take care of this? Quote

That would make a hilarious game. Everyone is aware it's a game, and when the final boss attacks your analog sticks stop working, making you use the d-pad instead. If you play the Sony campaign, you can change weapons in real time. The Sony Ninja also has a ninjitsu called "Attack it's weakpoint for massive damage" which causes the enemy 599 US healthpoints worth of damage. Quote
The Damned Posted January 10, 2007 Posted January 10, 2007 Wow... that went off on a tangent, didn't it? Quote
KirbyMeister Posted January 10, 2007 Author Posted January 10, 2007 It's such a tangent it's almost perpendicular to the original topic. Quote
