Four years ago, iLife Technologies Inc. filed a $144,000,000 patent lawsuit against Nintendo for an infringement of motion-sensing accelerometer technology in Wiimotes. Today, the verdict has gone out. Nintendo lost the lawsuit and must pay $10,000,000. Both sides have commented on the verdict in official statements.

It's ok I'm sure 10,000,000 is nothing for a company like Nintendo. They can make that back releasing like 2 new amiibos since people will buy anything Nintendo

It's much lower than the 144 million the company was originally seeking

And this is why patent law is a mess.

I'm not even bothering to read the article, but I assume the suit was filed in East Texas?
