Nintendo continuing to review legal options for WiiU.com
Posted on July 1, 2013 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U
News surfaced this past weekend that Nintendo was unable to acquire the WiiU.com domain. The company has since responded to the situation, stating that it continues to review legal options.
Nintendo’s official statement reads:
“Nintendo’s efforts to recover the domain name WiiU.com through a Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy administrative proceeding were unsuccessful. Nintendo has a strong history of protecting against infringement of our intellectual property rights and we are continuing to review our legal options. This decision does not impact Nintendo’s ability to enforce against violations concerning intellectual property.”
Nintendo of America filed a cybersquatting complaint against the owner of WiiU.com back in February. However, a decision was reached and Nintendo was not given possession of the domain.
