On my local CBS news station there was a story that aired last night about Sony preparing to take Nintendo to court because the format of Wii U discs are too similar to Blueray discs....I'm kind of getting sick of all these frivolous lawsuits that Nintendo is being hit with... Has this story aired elsewhere and if you've seen it what are your thoughts?

Too similar? Just because the edges are smooth and shiny?

I know really...I don't know that much about the technology behind media discs, but this seems like a really dumb lawsuit.

I don't see how they could. Sony isn't the owner of Blu-Ray.

It's owned by the BDA as a whole.

Looking forward to: No More Heroes: Travis Strikes Again

It's part of the business, unfortunately. I'm sure Nintendo would go after Sony if they could.

Well, WiiU disc have rounded edges and is faster than blu-ray, and it's not actually blu-ray, also it's not Sony's, it's BDA like @19Robb92, so Sony can't sue them, because there is nothing to sue for.

Fun fact: Panasonic, one of the patent holders of Blu-Ray technology and founding member of the BDA, assisted Nintendo in developing and manufacturing the Wii U optical disc.

Why would you be upset if someone is suing Nintendo?

Four more months until Bayonetta 2.

Nintendo wishes their discs were like Sony discs, so they can have blurays Nintendo games.

I'm not keen politics since that stuff is spooky, I'd rather watch SpongeBob over Fox News anyways!

Once again, despite no one here knowing any details of the supposed suit or alleged infringement, fancy themselves legal experts and declare that this suit (if it actually even exists) is frivolous, because obviously Nintendo would never do anything wrong.

Sigh.
