Nintendo's patent collection continues with one that seems to relate directly to Pokemon and Pikmin mechanics.

If only necromancy were real. They could summon and battle Gygax in court.

I don’t know what went wrong that such a patent was granted. I absolutely loathe IP people.

    God there’s so many companies that operate in Japan that will have problems with the summoning one alone. Square soft leaps to mind

      This is a US patent; not directly relevant to Japanese operations.

        Pretty sure Square soft operates in the United States as well.
