Until you make another good point.

I received this news today from TheGamer regarding Nintendo's lawsuit against a modder. I'm not certain how much money the guy made in the end after he pays the $2M fine, but he's better off than the other guy the article mentions. That guy has to fork over $10M and that's after more than a year in jail.

One more point. Note that Daly settled out of court which probably kept the fine low. The other guy went all the way to trial and lost. You can read about that in this article. So, when you start to compare these cases against DBG's case, it sure does indicate the final result. Right now it's just a matter of how long THJ can drag it out, but I have a feeling that's not a viable strategy in the long run because it just makes it more and more expensive for them in lawyer fees and inevitable fines or settlement.

Did they go to jail for the infringement or for being a contempt ignorey bear?

the Sony 2014 hack happened in retaliation for them going after a console modder, so there's that to consider also

Pro se against a billion dollar enterprise is certainly a style

Idk but xathos does bring up a good point that going all the way through the court is risky for THJ i bet, Ive heard before settling is much better than what loosing would be in general.

New laws. This Kochi Prefecture bitch, they don't play.

We settled this last winter. The statement to the investors or whatever entities need to see a return, declared that DPG has a roster of games all in what we might call "warehouse" status. The properties will be kept up, with the metric being to keep the IP's at a warehoused level of activity. Which they enjoy.

Unless and until that level alters downward, the people with money involved have no concern about our pixels. The entire basis of the statement was, this game is on a purely custodial category in the company's overall business plan. You can't penetrate the layers of we don't care, when it comes to the live and TLP servers.
