Let's see what the suit will actually be about (which patent) and then judge accordingly

No need to wait, Nintendo’s lawsuit is frivolous regardless of what patent they try to use.

The article itself admits that it's hinged on two "substantial what if's"

Just be patient and wait until more information comes out.

We know it's a patent suit though. Just because the article focuses on specific patents doesn't mean those parents are not already ridiculous and that the lawsuit, even if it's not based on those specific patents, is also ridiculous.

If you read the article, those "ifs" are only in reference to whether a US suit will be filed. The analysis of Nintendo's BS patents all makes sense.
