History
In December 2012, Sega Corporation sued fellow Japanese game developer Level-5, claiming that its Inazuma Eleven series of football games infringed on the company's "touch screen football" patents established by Touch Striker. Level-5 noted that it had been releasing games in the series without issue since 2008, and ultimately, Sega's lawsuit seems to have not gone anywhere.[3]
