Fuck Nintendo but they do have a point here. You can only get so far with artistic inspiration until it becomes straight up plagiarism.
They are suing over a patent though (ie, a technology). What you are talking about is a copyright suit.
Unfortunately we don’t know what patents Nintendo is suing over. And I struggle to think of a patent issue that would generate a good faith claim.
Yes, from I've read they haven't quoted any specific patent to anyone. They don't have good grounds, they just want it shut down.
