In Atari v. North American Philips Consumer Electronics Corp. (1982)[31] the 7th Circuit wrote that "no plagiarist can excuse the wrong by showing how much of his work he did not pirate."[2] This was said in the context of the fact that, "while a game is not protectable by copyright as such, this kind of work of authorship is protectable at least to a limited extent as long as the particular form in which it is expressed provides something new or additional over the idea" and that while two works may not be the same in many regards, if parts/components of the second work or wholly or substantially copied or like the first work, it is copyright infringement.[31]
