Filing law suits against the big three console manufacturers seem to be the in thing lately, and now Lucent Inventions wants to join in. According to the article, the Texas-based company alleges that the Wii infringes on a patent they owned that was issued back in 1993 for a "high capacitance structure in a semiconductor device."
The company had filed similar suits before with Texas Instruments and Marvell Semiconductors that were eventually settled.
