The introduction of the original NES Game Genie, was met by fierce opposition from Nintendo.
Nintendo then sued Galoob in the case Galoob v. Nintendo, claiming that the Game Genie created derivative works in violation of copyright law.
Sales of the Game Genie initially stopped in the U. S., but not in Canada.
In many gaming magazines of the time, Galoob placed Game Genie ads saying " Thank You Canada!
" However, after the courts found that use of the Game Genie did not result in a derivative work, Nintendo could do nothing to stop the Game Genie from being sold in the U. S. Before the lawsuit was filed, Galoob offered to make the Game Genie an officially licensed product but was turned down by Nintendo.
