[chyyran]

Way to copy Nintendo, Sony!
...Again.



But, anywho, do people actually use gun peripherals?

Admittedly they'd be pretty good for the arcade cabinet shooters but it's hard to get that feel without a proper arcade cabinet and most cabinet shooters are on the Wii.

Excuse me...please enlighten me, but what exactly is Sony copying from Nintendo this time? It just seems people automatically fart out the phrase whenever the word Sony is paired with the word Patent these days. Like a tic. Like some form of gaming related tourettes.

It's uh clearly based off the concept Nintendo showed E3 2011.

But I really don't care. It's all seems rather gimmicky to me. Might be okay for hunting/sniping games, I guess.

Maybe I missed a poste or somthing, but im shocked no one has commented on how much the remote for the Nintendo Wii U is to a DS/3DS... your basicaly just using the tv for the top screen now. Is it me or does this not feel like a step forward at all or original.... I don't know.. this just doesn't seem new or imprissive to me... I feel im gonna get conned into buying anther mediocre system just to play the new Legend of Zelda.... Either way this seems like a consul verson of the DS to me lol.

well i can see another lawsuit between sony and Nintendo in the near future ........ seem like this is a common trend in the gaming one rips of tech from this company or another and than they bitch back,,

This isn't Apple and Samsung.

Yes, certainly based off of that, because Silent Scope didn't use that kind of concept at all. nope.

Silent Scope didn't have a screen on top of a gun peripheral.


It's a copy of the concept Nintendo showed but I don't care because if it means we get more immersive hunting games with this, all the better.

Just Under Foreign Application Data It lists a date of Nov 10 , 2009 and a Code JP.
I assume that means they filed it in japan first than too kover a year to do it here

No, this is the right patent. Filed December 21, 2011

But look what this thread turned into. Instead of discussing the actual peripheral, we're arguing about how it's a copy of Nintendo.

Hm, similar but not the same. The one in the patent shows a screen put on top of a peripheral (screen (Vita?) on Move Gun peripheral just like (Wii U Pad on Wii Zapper). This shows one peripheral with a small screen.

I don't think it has nothing to do with the vita, I just stated that as a thought. Silent Scope gun "screen" isn't really the same type
screen we are talking about here, is it?


Reread post

Yeah, the Silent Scope gun is different then those.

I find it disgusting how Nintendo can just steal Konamis idea like that.

Now if you excuse me I am going so that I can be sick.

Not sure how I would be arguing about it being a copy of ninty ..... What I was saying is , I wonder if they "SONY" filed this patent in JP=Japan first , that is why I pointed out this Foreign Application Data

Date Code Application Number Nov 10, 2009 JP 2009-257282

No, you mentioned a different patent (0120190448 vs. 0120212429). The correct one was filed December 21, 2011.
