How do these not apply to the majority of games, these sound so insanely broad. Patents are so stupid.

Sony has a patent for an input device having two data streams at once

usb has more i think.

They only apply to games from Japan. This is the Japanese patent system.

But why in english if it's (seemingly) domestic only.
