Nintendo recently applied for multiple trademarks on 12th May 2020 and each one has now been published. First up, is a trademark for the upcoming Switch release, Paper Mario: The Origami King<\/a><\/strong>, which is due out on 17th July. The other game mentioned is the much older 2006 Wii title, Excite Truck<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

It doesn’t end there, though. On the hardware front, there’s an application for the company’s 2001 handheld device – the Game Boy Advance, its 2012 Wii U system, and there’s even a mention of the WaveBird – a wireless controller for the GameCube.<\/p>\n

Last but not least is an application for Mii – Nintendo’s customisable avatar first introduced during the Wii generation. Japanese Nintendo also mentions the categories each of these trademarks has been filed under:<\/p>\n

\n

The Game Boy Advance and Wii U applications are under the categories machinery and equipment<\/em> and toys<\/em> with the Wii U also being under education\/entertainment<\/em>. Both Paper Mario applications and Excite Truck are under the machinery and equipment<\/em> category, Wavebird is under toys<\/em>, and Mii is under both machinery and equipment<\/em> and education\/entertainment<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

<\/blockquote>\n

This is the most trademarks Nintendo has applied for since the start of this year. Back in January, it applied for 39 trademarks<\/a>. Of course, trademark applications don’t necessarily mean there are any new games or products on the horizon and are often just to protect IP – so try not to get too excited<\/em>.<\/p>\n
