Another patent has been filed by #Nintendo - this time for a second screen. Could be patent trolling by Nintendo (๐˜ญ๐˜ช๐˜ฌ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ธ๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ต ๐˜ธ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ด๐˜ข๐˜ธ ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ค๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ญ๐˜บ ๐˜ธ๐˜ช๐˜ต๐˜ฉ ๐˜—๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜ธ๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ญ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ '๐˜ฃ๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜ญ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ณ๐˜ฐ๐˜ธ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ค๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ช๐˜ค'), or it could be a legitimate second screen: for an upcoming device, or maybe the #Switch My money is on patent trolling, knowing Nintendo's nonsense recently#gaming

@flwwhtrbt@mastodon.social I wrote this in February, but I still maintain there's a sizable audience for a 2nd screen on the Switch 2. https://www.forbes.com/sites/jasonevangelho/2025/02/20/this-switch-2-dual-screen-accessory-looks-awesome-but-theres-a-catch/

    The man who went silent for months still lives!

    I remember reading that, but I somehow forgot it existed. It would be a strange add-on, I suppose something like Retroid's recent efforts, but I suppose if anyone could do it...it's Nintendo.

    The major downside I see is the convenience of portability really drops with something like the screen + hinge.

    Time will tell!

    @flwwhtrbt@mastodon.social I come up for air once in a while, but I pretty much live on the trail now. Hope you are well and kicking ass.

    Most likely this is just maintaining their existing patents for the DS and 3DS.

    If it's for something new, it will be for the next console.
