svtboy Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 I was thinking before I read the article "its probably not a big deal" but yeah . . . that's going to be a hard one to explain away in court! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Loafer Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 This is the "owning the mame name" guy right? I'm sure there's a couple at BYOAC that are laughing their asses off right now. I guess there goes any updated to VP9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cameron Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Interesting. Well that takes the cake if it is true. That would make him a poster boy for hypocrites considering all of the stuff he has done regarding intellectual rights for stuff he did own and didn't. So what kind of burning unit is this that they are talking about? A DVD burner or some type of prom burner? Regardless, this seems like some kind of Karma thing eh?

SophT Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 But just before he sold UltraCade, Foley made game packs at his home using a burner stolen from UltraCade, the indictment said. He stole it from himself before he sold it to someone else? So it was mostly like a violation of the bill of sale...? /man I need to move to california... Everything goes down there.

Lashek Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 lol. This news delivers, I'll be keeping an eye on this case just like others, as it's quite interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circo Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 I guess I should speak to this, I spoke to Robert yesterday from Nanotech Entertainment who assured me that this is being blown up to be way more than it is. He said they had been dealing with this for two years now and that the article wasn't 100% correct and that they fully expected the case to be dropped. He also assured me that this would have absolutely no impact on Nanotech Entertainment. When I talked to David he seemed as relaxed as could be and was having fun at the show with his kid. As far as product releases MultiPin will ship next month and there is already another run of the opti stuff for the guns in the works. As far as I can tell everything seems fine.

jtslade Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Marty: Plutonium... wait, are you telling me that this sucker is nuclear? Doc: No no no, this sucker's electrical, but it requires a nuclear reaction to generate the 1.21 gigawatts of electricity I need. Marty: Doc, you don't just walk into a store and buy plutonium-- did you rip that off? Doc: Shhhhhh. Of course. From a group of Libyan nationalists. They wanted me to build them a bomb, so I took their plutonium and in turn, gave them a shiny bomb-casing filled with used pinball machine parts.

Brenry Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 a gameroom publication has been following the story closely, and he's back in the news again. From the way they have been interviewing all the game companies none of his roms were licensed in the first place. http://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_index.php?story=24691 the thread on Pinball Nirvana, Dave expands on his side of the story: http://www.pinballnirvana.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6690&page=2&PHPSESSID=982794edc585dd878dca785afe2bd60b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
