| You can sue someone for anything, and Nintendo is infamous for doing so. They will put an army of lawyers on a case that has no merit (or just enough merit not to be thrown out early) to cost the defendant lots of money or just create sufficient risk that the defendant will settle to avoid the slim chance that they lose. Yes, our legal system has major flaws. |
