Anyway, the "for dummies" version of why DP is wrong:

Nobody really said they invented it. However, Microsoft had a digital service prior to the Wii. Almost a decade before, they had a service called Wiimiis or something to that effect.

But yeah, Microsoft is the one copying Miis. After all, Nintendo isn't under like six different lawsuits for ripping off patents right now.

More of the "for dummies" commentary, DP, they didn't try to patent, they did patent methods for custom soundtrack application.

Oops. I guess darkpower should think before he starts talking.

Yet you never give anything to base your claims on. You just want everyone to just believe you because it's you that said it and then call the OTHER guy wrong.

But then again, I'm arguing with an Xbot, a 360 fanboy, one of the worst of them, at that. That and MS can NEVER do ANYTHING wrong, and that they NEVER ripped off of anyone.

Again, you made the claim, but you're not backing them up and hoping that people just believe you because of your TPWW status, which is really sad.

You may be arguing with an X-Bot, but you're surely not arguing with me. You're making up statements like "MS can NEVER do ANYTHING wrong" and "they NEVER ripped off of anyone," which are things nobody said.

I'm also not sure why you think I rely on my reputation on this forum. Two of the three statements I made are ones in which I have provided evidence prior to this thread in threads where you were involved. A USPTO search will give you the patent for custom soundtracks. But you already knew that. You already knew about lawsuits against Nintendo for patent infringement, also already posted.

What's left? Well, Avatars. If you're not familiar with avatars in gaming before the Mii was created, pretty sure you've never been near an electronic device before.
