Interlink electronics claims that the Wii Remote infringes copyright for its own 'trigger based pointing device'

The company is asking for Nintendo to avoid further infringement of their patent. This possibly means (and has been inferred by IGN) even taking the Wii off the market.

These things rarely come to a head, with either the case being dismissed or an out-of-court settlement being agreed.

But after Sony's ruling on Liksang, where the company was forced to close, you have to wonder...
