“We are very pleased with the Court’s decision,” said Rick Flamm, NoA’s senior vice president of Legal and general counsel.
“Nintendo vigorously defends patent lawsuits. At the earliest stages of this case, Nintendo convinced the Court to dismiss this case as Guardian’s patent had nothing to do with Nintendo’s products.”
