Microsoft was not named in the suit because they do not use Bluetooth to connect their controllers to the Xbox 360. Both the PlayStation 3 and Wii use Bluetooth to connect their controllers and therefore were named in the suit.
The plaintiff is hoping for monetary damages as well as an injunction stopping Sony and Nintendo from further infringing upon the 1996 patent.
Both companies have declined to comment on the case as of yet.
