Game mechanic patents are such an unbelievable joke it’s hard to understand how any court could take them seriously. “Yes your honor. As you can see, we own the exclusive rights to the idea of throwing a ball at a creature in a video game.”
I’m always happy to remind everyone that your childhood didn’t have minigames during loading screens because it was a patented game mechanic!
That one really pisses me off. It’s such a good idea and would have been applicable to almost every game.
Without pokemon I would not come up with it though.
