Does nintendo pokeball patent covers spinning tops as summoning and capturing mechanic?
Beyblade did it
>>58705605They can't apply their shitty patents outside of japan (they didn't touch coromon by example)
>>58705612Might help that nobody knows Coromon
Nintendo's patents are horseshit and the riding one is going to waste given gen 10's shitty scooter.
>>58705605No, Yugioh has that one.
>>58705623They're patenting mounts?

>>58705605That's not how those patents work.
It's genius when you put it like that and it just makes all those wannabe pokemon indie games look lazier when they just have "pokeball but triangle or something"
>>58705605>nintendo pokeball patentThe patent office is rejecting it
>>58706292Too much legalese
>>58706804basically they patented capturing a character and then using a menu to select and mount that captured character
>>58706835thats so fucking stupid
>>58706835>patented capturing a character and then using a menu to selectWhen is Nintendo suing Atlus?
>>58707066Atlus did it first. They don't want that smoke, they'll lose bad
Necormancing these kids so they can sue(you don't know if they're thinking about monsters or not)
>>58706343You should fly to Japan and let Nintendo know. If they had your insight, they'd save a lot of time and money.
>>58707066There were mounts in IMAGINE so atlus is totes dead
>>58705605They're losing the patent now, as they should.
>>58705605Isn't that how you "capture" pokémons in Rangers?
