Perkins Coie was noted as counsel to Nintendo in the Law.com* article, "Jury Struggles to Pick Up SCOTUS Pieces in Apple-Samsung Feud," regarding the upcoming patent dispute between Nintendo and Gamevice.

Who Got the Work?

Nintendo is calling on Perkins Coie to take on Gamevice and Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan in a patent battle over gaming consoles.

The Dispute: Gamevice manufactures consoles that attach to mobile phones and tablets. The company sued in March, saying Nintendo’s Switch console—which Nintendo bills as the “home console that you can take anywhere”—infringes its patented technology. The case is pending before U.S. District Judge Richard Seeborg in the Northern District of California.

The attorneys: Perkins Coie partner Grant Kinsel entered an appearance Friday, indicating that Nintendo would answer the complaint by July 6, 2018.
