Nintendo has filed a lawsuit against accessory manufacturer Genki for showing off 3D-printed mockups of the Nintendo Switch 2 ahead of its official announcement.
That’s not like Nintendo to sue people.
I mean… I know “hurr hurr dae Nintendo bad” but this seems pretty standard?
Nah it wasn’t a hurr hurr dea Nintendo bad joke, it’s a hurr hurr dae Nintendo is once again suing someone joke.
Nintendo suing someone is like Boeing killing a whistleblower, it’s just their thing.
That’s just “Nintendo bad” with extra steps
Same amount of steps, different door.
I don’t get the down votes. Nintendo is notoriously litigious. Not necessarily saying “nintender bahd”…
I was expecting this. The company was under an nda to make 3th party stuff of the switch 2. The switch 2 wasnt announced yet, the official name and design wasnt officially revealed yet and yet they showed it off at ces in januari.
Ye, thats a clear violation of the nda.
Oh brother are they a fucking video game company or a fucking law firm investor FUCK just make the fucking games bro
In April, one day before Nintendo’s Switch 2 presentation, Nintendo alleges that Genki mass-emailed its marketing list and posted on social media that it would hold its own “Direct” presentation, which Nintendo contests is a blatant infringement of its own Nintendo Direct branding.
Fuck off with trying trademark common use words…
I know it’s not the popular opinion, but I’m with Nintendo on this one.
The “Direct” stuff seems nonsense, but if Genki actually broke NDA then it’s their own fault and there should be repercussions.
