Apparently some other company has some kind of motion technology allowing users to select stuff on a screen with a handheld device.The International Trade Commission has agreed to look into allegations made by Hillcrest Laboratories that the Nintendo Company infringed on patents in making its Wii video game console, the commission said. Hillcrest has accused Nintendo of infringing on four patents. The commission has the power to ban products from the United States if they are made with infringed technology.Hmm, this Hillcrest company doesn't appear to be doing anything super fun or cute with its motion sensing controllers, so I think I'll have to side with Nintendo here :D How much would it suck if Wiis had to be pulled from shelves because of some kind of patent infringement? Yikes.
