On January 23 of this month, the Court of Justice of the EU will dicide on certain issues relating to technological measures implemented by Nintendo to protect their rights (at least this is the purpose stated by Nintendo), giving response to preliminary ruling made by the Court of Milan.
The case processing before the Court of Milan is about consoles “DS” and “Wii” manufactured by Nintendo and Nintendo games (or those authorized by Nintendo) which are recorded on data cartridges and DVD respectively, containing encoded information that has to be necessarily exchanged with the encoded information contained in consoles to make it possible to play the games.
