Nintendo's lawsuit against accessory manufacturer Genki, which earlier this year debuted a mock-up Switch 2 unit before the console had actually been officially unveiled, has come to an end.

Back in May, Nintendo filed a copyright claim against Genki, when it accused the manufacturer of "capitalising" on demand for Switch 2 news and giving "contradictory and inconsistent" statements.

Nintendo and Genki have now reached a settlement, without any further need for a trial. As per official court documents, Genki is required to pay an undisclosed amount to Nintendo for damages.

In addition, Genki along with all other subsidiaries of its parent company Human Things are banned from using any Nintendo logo, design or "anything confusingly similar thereto", in "any manner in connection with its business".

Genki is now also prohibited from using approximations such as 'Glitch', 'Glitch 2', 'Genki Direct' and 'Genki Indirect' when promoting its own products, with these of course being very close to Nintendo's own Switch and Nintendo Direct-related branding.

The accessories manufacturer is also no longer able to use colour schemes in any of its products or packaging which are "confusingly or substantially" similar to Nintendo's. The court document states: "Namely, red and white, red and blue, green and pink, blue and yellow, purple and orange, pink and yellow, and purple and green."
