I would make that a non-automatic link, but why bother?

Sure, maybe I could have been clearer, but I don't like to point out too much of the obvious because I kinda believe people to be above that. Sorry, I'll keep that in mind for you Hedfix.
And you're not a fool because you didn't understand me, you're a fool because you jumped to conclusions.

Well if the motor is cental in the controller (essentailly like the rumble pak was when clipped in) that's pretty different from the designs that have the motors in the side handles of the Sony and MS controllers.

Wouldn't be surprised if that was the reason, but still gotta ask why that even makes a difference.
I still think it was because Nintendo had more of a fighting chance with their rumble than the other two did.
Interesting titbit I just found, Microsoft owns 10% of Immersion. hmmm...

Because Nintendo rock.
Because it's a one motor design.
Just like the rumble pack.

I know you fool, but it still doesn't make any sense, no matter how you look at it.
Just because Nintendo originally made it as a seperate piece, they've still gone ahead and had it built in for the Gamecube. Why sue Microsoft and Sony, and not them?

I was talking about the N64.

Makes more sense, but I've got a funny feeling Nintendo registered their patent a year before Immersion did. The court case wouldn't be worth it.
Also read the cube rumble only uses one motor. Which is more like Nintendo's original rumble pack design.
