Nintendo gets 2 major patents
Um, WTF:

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2004/08...online_gaming/

Quote:
The two patents detail a "home video game system with hard disk drive and Internet access capability", but the second filing adds provision for "substantially real-time" online multi-player gaming, connection via an online gaming service, support for online "player performance data", using the connection to download information and do so securely through an authentication process, and the communication across the Net of "audio input signals".
With the top one, they've basically patetened the XBox... WTF? I'm not sure how patents work, but could they sue Microsoft for this?
