>If the Court was the final decisionmaker on the merits, it would likely find Nintendo
Switch part of the relevant market. But it is not. Instead, on a 13(b) preliminary injunction, the
FTC need only make a “tenable showing that the relevant market” is Gen 9 consoles. Given the plethora of internal industry documents and the acknowledged differences, the FTC has met its preliminary injunction burden to show the Switch is not included
in the relevant market.
>Nintendo made “technical decisions to enable an experience that they thought their customers would want to have, and it’s the best selling console right now in the market. So when I — when people try to tell me it’s not competition — competitive, for any number of reasons, I don’t believe
that because I just look at what’s selling
- haizhung 3y agoWas Nintendo buying up huge companies? Honest question, if Nintendo achieved their market position on their own merits, without abusing their monopoly (do they have one?), would that fall in the jurisdiction of the FTC?
