You will be indispensable in any ambitious hardware or software project thanks to the legal umbrella you will be able to offer to companies"

The history of legal protection in video games has a long history. Even in its early days Nintendo had to face a well-known legal battle against Universal for the rights to the Donkey Kong character. Finally, it was the lawyer John Kirby who managed to win the lawsuit in favor of the Japanese company thanks to his knowledge in jurisdiction, so Nintendo honored him by naming the iconic pink character after him.

This case joins so many others that video game developers have had to face against other cultural companies or even in the electronic field itself. In addition, it is very common for powerful companies such as Sony, Nintendo or Microsoft to patent their new peripheral designs to avoid possible plagiarism by competitors.
