According to videogame patent lawyer Kirk Sigmon, the USPTO granting Nintendo these latest patents isn’t just a moment of questionable legal theory. It’s an indictment of American patent law.

“Broadly, I don’t disagree with the many online complaints about these Nintendo patents,” said Sigmon, whose opinions do not represent those of his firm and clients. “They have been an embarrassing failure of the US patent system.”

          You can’t use logic here, it’s a waste of time. They already made up their minds and even assigned a maliciously litigious multibillion dollar corporation to their internal identity.

          The best response is to point and laugh.
