At this point, I think Nintendo could claim to have invented the idea of video games and courts would agree.

They claimed to have invented the concept of inertia for Tears of the Kingdom.

Japanese patent law is so bonkers I am almost surprised there isn‘t far more patent trolling going on. I say almost because it‘s also a monopolistic dystopia and huge companies would ruin your life with an army of lawyers and the full support of the public if you annoy them.
