Nintendo fans have been buzzing with excitement this week as new trademarks were uncovered in Australia. Among these discoveries were trademarks for the beloved 2015 Wii U game, Kirby and the Rainbow Paintbrush (also known as Kirby and the Rainbow Curse), and the 2015 3DS release, Fullblox (alternatively known as Stretchmo). What sets these registrations apart is that the original trademarks for these games are still active, suggesting that this is more than just a routine renewal.
Possible Revival of Classic Titles
While the existence of these trademarks is thrilling for fans of these titles, it’s important to note that the filing of trademarks does not necessarily guarantee the revival of these games. Nintendo has a long history of renewing trademarks as part of regular business operations. With these trademarks having been in place for over a decade now, it remains unclear whether there are concrete plans to bring these games back to life. Rest assured, we will keep an eye out for any developments and keep you updated on any exciting news.
For those in need of a refresher, here is a brief overview of the two beloved games:
– Kirby and the Rainbow Paintbrush: Embark on a vibrant platforming adventure where players use the Wii U GamePad touch screen to draw rainbow ropes for Kirby to navigate through levels. Discover hidden collectibles such as clay figurines and music tracks as you overcome obstacles and enemies.
– Fullblox: The latest installment in the series introduces a fresh twist by allowing players to manipulate blocks from multiple angles. With new directions of movement, players can push and pull blocks not only from the front but also from the rear, left, and right sides. This additional complexity adds layers of challenge to the puzzle-solving gameplay fans have come to love.
Adding to the excitement of the week, a Switch rating for Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition surfaced on the ESRB. This unexpected discovery has sparked speculation and anticipation among Nintendo enthusiasts, hinting at a potential reimagining of the iconic Nintendo World Championships for the modern console era.
As with any trademark filings and ratings, it’s essential to approach these discoveries with cautious optimism. While the prospect of classic titles making a comeback is thrilling, only time will tell if these trademarks translate into tangible releases for fans to enjoy. Stay tuned for more updates on these trademark developments and the potential return of beloved Nintendo titles.
