I gave it a check. If Pocketpair plays it smart they can make Nintendo look like a herd of muppets in the court, and even potentially acting on bad faith. Pocketpair might also simply change a few elements of its own game through an update, much like PvZ replacing Michael Jackson zombie with a disco zombie.

I'm not even sure how much patents apply to games.

I really hope so. The last thing we need is Nintendo deciding that they own every game mechanic they've ever used.
