Welcome to the Tech Meme Brian McCullough today.

Looks like they finally got around to suing that Powell World game.

Google volunteered to break up some of its businesses,

but the EU said no.

AI is coming to YouTube in a big way.

A new social media platform is entirely AI. and Amazon wants to get into the

Shark Tank business. Here's what you missed today in the world of tech.

Hey remember this story Nintendo and the Pokemon Company have sued Powell

World Development Pocket Pair, accusing it of infringing on quote multiple patent rights.

Powell World you might recall sold more than 5 million copies back in January and

people were like hey doesn't that look a lot like Pikachu?

Quoting the verge.

From Nintendo's press release, this lawsuit seeks an injunction against infringement and

compensation for damages on the grounds that Powell World, a game developed and released by the defendant

infringes multiple patent rights. In response, Pocket Pear issued a statement

saying it was unaware of any patents it had violated and was not quote notified of such details.

Nevertheless it would begrudgingly begin investigating the claims.

It is truly unfortunate that we will be forced to allocate significant time to matters unrelated to game

development due to this lawsuit.

However, we will do our utmost for our fans and to ensure that indie game developers are not

hindered or discouraged from pursuing their creative ideas."

End quote.
