Nintendo got sued by Universal Studios for creating Donkey Kong which Universal felt was too close to King Kong. Nintendo won the case and since then they’ve been on a bloody dont-fuck-with-the-plumber Crusade just like Disney’s dont-fuck-with-the-mouse. Given the current state of Pokemon games, I wish Nintendo had lost the Pokemon trademark due to brand dilution long ago.
