Oh man, here’s one that’s sure to make you guys chuckle. Erik Estavillo is suing Nintendo because of a firmware upgrade that rendered his Wii homebrew channel to not function anymore.
Estavillo claims that update 4.3 disabled his Homebrew Channel, which he used to unlock characters in Mario Kart Wii. Plaintiff states that the only way to unlock characters in Mario Kart Wii is to purchase Super Mario Galaxy, which will unlock a single character in the former title. “In essence, Nintendo is forcing customers to buy another game to unlock one character in a different game.”
I wonder if this guy seriously thinks that he’s going to win this one. I’m pretty sure this lawsuit is going to be dismissed as soon as someone of importance sees it.
