Level 5's one of the best developers out there. Granted I'm more of a fan of Danball Senki than Inazuma Eleven, but IE is a huge fujoshi franchise so if it stopped that'd be pretty bad. Hope they can work this out.

Why complain over a measly $11 million? |

Hopefully this kills Level 5. It won't , but I still want them to stop.

No. Have you ever seen thier patents? http://www.freepatentsonline.com/8172678.html See how none of its descriptions are discrete or specific? |

Its $11 million. Level 5 has $500 million in assets. It won't hurt them at all if they were to lose. |

Did L5 kill your dog and burn your house? Just wondering. About the sue, it seems idiotic to me. But I am not lawyer, though. Last edited by kgw on Tue Dec 11, 2012 8:32 pm; edited 1 time in total |

I was thinking the "stop producing and selling Inazuma 11 games" part |

Yeah, that's what's going to cause all hell to break loose.
Where are they getting 8 games from, though? I'm counting 1 for IE 1, 2 for IE 2, another 2 for IE 3 and again for IE 4 (GO!) making for 7 games. What should Sega care if Strikers exists? Not a damn bit in that game that uses touch screen. |

I doubt this would indefinitely stop Inazuma 11 games from being licensed, all it would do is force Level 5 to allow SEGA to co-publish and co-license the games especially if Level 5 unintentionally did violate SEGA's patent design. The "stop producing and selling Inazuma 11" is if Level 5 doesn't agree to either a tiny settlement and co-license deal or if they don't fight the suit which in turn would cost them a morsel of cash. |

Here is me giving a f*** by showing off some gruesome deaths from resident evil 2. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PxskG3g9gn8 I am going to invent something called a car and it will have a steering wheel. However I'm going to patent the round design on the wheel so only my car model brand/name can use them. It's the same damn b.s. that apple did with Samsung but in all reality I don't care anymore.
