>I haven't seen this one yet, I was basing my responses on a previous one I saw I would recommend watching the posted video then. There's no doubt that Doug has a certain bias to the whole thing but nothing he said sounded unreasonable.
My executive summary if you don't have time: GCC had an idea and implementation for a sequel which introduced a pac family. Namco had nothing, liked their idea, and bought it from them. Everyone made crap-tons of money. GCC eventually realized they had invented the family concept and, even if it was a derivative of the original, they were owed some compensation for all the non-arcade related products. The law was on their side. Namco forgot about the whole thing a few decades later and needed to be reminded by a court of law.
