I love Nintendo and I love this story. After one company alleged that Nintendo stole and used similar sounding names and avatars for its Miis, the company has since wanted to cease the lawsuit, saying it is still in early stages, but wants to leave open opportunity to bring it again. So what's Nintendo's response? "Nope, it's already be broughten! Bring it on!" (Yes, "broughten" was used on purpose as a movie reference for your information.)
From the article:
The legal battle simmered until last month, when WeeWorld asked the judge in the case to dismiss the suit without prejudice, which would leave the door open for future litigation on the subject. Calling the case "unquestionably in its infant stages" with no depositions taken, motions for judgment made, or trial date set, WeeWorld said it wanted to see the dispute played out overseas first.
"With most of its current business in the United Kingdom, WeeWorld recently decided that it should use its limited resources to first seek relief in the United Kingdom," the company said in its motion to dismiss the case.
Last week, Nintendo filed its objection to WeeWorld's motion. The gamemaker feels there is no possibility of confusion between the names, and said it's entitled to a dismissal of the suit with prejudice, which would prevent WeeWorld from picking up the claims against Nintendo in the future.
