Nintendo and Nyko today settled one of the many prending lawsuits pertaining to Wii controllers. The lawsuit, filed by Nintendo back in June, accused Nyko of violating trademarks and patents through its Wii Kama Wireless Nunchuks.

The settlement will allow Nyko and its retail partners to sell a redesigned Wii Kama Wireless Nunchuk. Specific terms of the agreement were not provided. Thus far, Nintendo has only officially released a wired version of the Wii Nunchuk add-on.

"We are pleased to have resolved this dispute," said Nintendo of America president and COO Reggie Fils-Aime. "The Nunchuk and Wii brands are familiar to consumers worldwide, and Nintendo is dedicated to vigorous defense of those brands."

Wii maker Nintendo has sued third-party accessory manufacturer Nyko, claiming that Nyko's line of Wii Kama Wireless Nunchuks violate Nintendo's trademarks and patents.

The lawsuit alleges that Nyko "wholly appropriates the novel shape, design, overall appearance and even the color and materials used in the Nintendo Nunchuk controller," according to documents obtained by Bloomberg.

Whereas Nintendo officially produces a Nunchuk add-on that connects to the Wii Remote with a wire to provide more buttons and an analog stick, Nyko's Kama Nunchuks connects to the Wii Remote wirlessly but offers the same functionality.

"We have not knowingly violated anyone's intellectual property and we're still examining this," stated Nyko representative C.C. Swiney.
