Nintendo has announced the dismissal of a 2010 lawsuit filed by Triton over the Wii Remote. Triton alleged that the technology powering the Wii Remote infringed against its patent for a “computer apparatus input device for three-dimensional information.”

The Seattle district court found Triton’s patent invalid, as it doesn’t fully describe a complete invention. Nintendo has fought off a number of patent suits over the past few years, and has come out ahead of most of them.

The exception is a recent suit against Nintendo filed by Tomita Technologies. The result of that suit was a judge awarding a percentage of all 3DS sales to Tomita as compensation for the infringement of the company’s glasses-less 3D technology.

Patent trolls suck a big one
