This is from there comments.


Quote:
"Creator NMI Laser 6 days ago

I do not have a license from Taito, however I have taken legal advice that at worst this falls into a gray area known as derivative art or fan art. At best it could be easily argued that it is parody - which as it turns out is very protective in my favor. Since there is a little tongue and cheek here regarding video games vs. board games with this I am hereby arguing that this is both a parody and artistic commentary on how people play games(thinking vs. button mashing) and melding the physical with virtual (video games vs. board games). If Taito is really desperate for cash and comes after us I'll listen to their arguments, consult our attorney, act fairly and reasonably, and that is all I can do."

you canot sell/start start a busniss based on an clear ip you don't own (and they even use space invader to advertise this). and no, you canot use fan art for an court explanation.
