WeeWorld sues Nintendo. Then wants the suit dropped. Nintendo's response? "No thanks."
WeeWorld, the avatar creation licensor that filed a suit against Nintendo last year for (they say) infringing on their WeeMee trademark has asked a judge to dismiss the case "without prejudice." While you'd think Nintendo would be pleased to have this whole legal snag behind them, you'd be wrong. Nintendo's lawyers want the court to drop the case with prejudice and prevent WeeWorld from pursuing future legal action against the company. Look. It's technical.
Nintendo also wants some four-hundred grand in legal fees repaid to them. Maybe WeeWorld bit off more than they could chew?
