like Discover According to GameRant, Sony recently filed a new patent for a universal console that will go everywhere, which hides…hot the details.
In particular, Sony, in its official document, calls out other consoles as inferior, with the relevant passage characteristically writing that the console can be used on “a personal computer or home entertainment system (such as the Sony PlayStation 2, Sony PlayStation 3, or Sony PlayStation 4). ), a portable game device (such as a Sony PSP or Sony Vita) or on a different, albeit inferior, manufacturer’s home entertainment system.”
According to Sony, Nintendo and Microsoft are inferior console makers. This comment was strongly criticized by Florian Müller, a patent analyst who has been active in this field for 20 years. In particular, he called Sony’s behavior “boyish”, saying:
This is nothing new. It’s a longstanding Sony practice. He’s been doing this since at least 2011.
It’s amazing that no one discovered this “tradition” earlier and that no patent office in a long time told them to stop doing it once and for all. The patent applications are not intended to be propaganda tools for console warriors.

Dozens of examples since 2011.– Florian Müller (FOSSpatents) April 9, 2023
Mueller then explains that it is common and legitimate for some patents to explain why an invention is superior to what is already available in order to explain why a patent should already be patented.
It’s okay to discuss specific technology drawbacks (eg lower performance, higher power consumption, larger memory footprint) of a specific pre-existing technology.
But calling your competition “inferior” in general is unnecessary, stupid, childish, and unprofessional.
At this point, it’s worth noting that Mueller previously worked with Microsoft, which he mentions as a client on his blog. He also served as an advisor to Blizzard between 1995 and 1998, which Microsoft is now trying to acquire.
