Nintendo Prevails in ITC Case

Nintendo has prevailed in a case initiated by Creative Kingdoms, Nintendo has announced.
Creative Kingdoms originally filed its International Trade Commission complaint in 2011. The company declared that Nintendo infringed on its MagiQuest wands technology through the Wii remote controller.
However, the commission has ruled in favor of Nintendo, determining that the Wii – as well as the Wii U – do not violate any patents. The commission also found that Creative Kingdoms’ patents are invalid.
Richard Medway, Nintendo of America’s deputy general counsel, said of the ruling:
“We are pleased with the commission’s determination. Nintendo’s track record demonstrates that we vigorously defend patent lawsuits when we believe we have not infringed another party’s patent. Nintendo continues to develop unique and innovative products while respecting the intellectual property rights of others.”
