I found some news about Playmore's Lawsuit against Aruze. Unfortunately, it's all in Japanese Hieroglyphics and not on the English Page. Altavista is as usual giving me a load of gibberish. Can anyone decipher this?

Try to translate it a half at a time. It talks about a lawsuit over copyright infringment by Aruze with a game called Crazy Racer. Playmore is seeking for quite a lot of money in the suit as well. Millions.

In the press release Playmore is about three copyright infringment.

The first case is about a Aruze pachislot machine called Crazy Racer-R <a href="http://www.aruze.com/products/ps/2001/crazy_r01.html" target="_blank">http://www.aruze.com/products/ps/2001/crazy_r01.html</a> Playmore owns the Crazy Racer copyrights an the Crazy Racer-R pachislot is violating their copyrights.

The second case is about an IRE-GUI and an other pachislot violating the copyrights.

The third case is about the Playstation 2 Game Aruze Kingdom 6. In this game the Crazy Racer-R pachislot machine is included. <a href="http://www.arukin.com/new/new2.html" target="_blank">http://www.arukin.com/new/new2.html</a> (click on the question mark) and <a href="http://www.aruze.com/products/cs/contents/ak6_t01.html" target="_blank">http://www.aruze.com/products/cs/contents/ak6_t01.html</a>

It also says that Aruze was bidding for the SNK intelectual property (IP) after the bankruptcy, but playmore is getting the whole IP, which includes the rights to te above mentioned copyrights.
