Hardware Nintendo might get sued no wii u

[The Milkman]

This whole article is just friggen funny though, it reminds me of the whole Apple inc vs Android and HTC fiasco.

please don't mention that! It gives me nightmares! Imagine if the gaming industry was like the smartphone industry?

I'm pretty sure the moblie community is like that BECAUSE of the gamers who left the gaming community bring their close minded idea of "one being better then the other" with them.

oh and DJ-too-many-numbers-to-call-for-me-tagging-you. They are called zL and zR because they were called that on the classic controller and CPP. Its kinda stupid to nick-pick over that though, no offense.

I wasn't referring to "fan wars," I was referring to the patent war that Apple and others are waging on everybody in the smartphone/tablet industry.

That's a war? I thought Apple was just being butthurt

This thread is pointless considering the OP is completely baseless.

The DS vs. PSP wars ended when the DS eventually became the clear victor. I suspect the same to happen here.

(obligatory, blah blah, i think the psp (and vita) are both fine devices)

It's a war CAUSED by them being butthurt. Do some research... it's scary just how many of their lawsuits and unwarranted patent applications are successful, and how they very specifically target particular devices (every Android-powered Samsung device comes to mind), even though their claims are completely baseless. But that's off topic, so I'll stop there.

I think it is stupid that Nintendo is going to name the bumpers Rz and Lz.

Gamecube controller had a z too, so... yeah. I do wonder why z, but then I think because "why not"?

I would want to buy this controller because it looks far more comfortable that that tablet "controller" over long play sessions. I just hope that almost every game is compatible with it.

It may "look far more comfortable" ,but it doesn't mean it is. Other words, it could at least have the same comfort or maybe not.

...You guys do know that Microsoft said they are cool with the WiiU Pro Controller... right?

I think this calls for a lock

 

[Hadrian]

about as much chance of MS suing Nintendo over the pad than there is Nintendo suing MS over smart glass

Noticing your avatar, it made me remember something. Doesn't the XBox controller look like a Dreamcast controller?

For some reason they both remind me of pregnant women.

Let's not forget about the N64 Z button, since Classic Controllers and the Pro U Controller has two of them it's only logical to have LZ and RZ in order for your brain to quickly know where they're located.

more like the GameCube Z button. the N64 Z button was positioned completely differently (underneath your left hand's grip, as opposed to right above/bellow the shoulder button)

Well he's complaining about the name isn't he?
The name originated from that system and as with the GameCube it's a third trigger button the others being L and R.

Yeah, I'm just saying it makes more sense to mention the GameCube Z button, since that one was placed in pretty much the exact same place as the classic and pro controllers.

Totally stared at that comment in silence for a moment before laughing out loud.
Also, I can totally see it. I'll never look at a Sega Saturn Controller the same again.
