Nintendo files trademark in Japan for The Last Story

thelaststory

Nintendo has filed for a trademark in Japan, which registers the rights to “The Last Story”, according to Siliconera.

The site was quick to point out that while the trademark is registered Japan, the words are in English and “Nintendo usually files names for upcoming games in Japanese unless the name is tied to an international release.”

Interesting.

We will ask Nintendo for you, but they are a secretive bunch, so don’t hold your breath.

If the US government’s Patent and Trademark office’s website is to be believed, Activision’s applied for a trademark for Sing Hero.

Surely it sounds like what it is–a competitor to Sony’s Singstar and Microsoft’s Lips.

Looks as though ActiBlizz bossman Bobby Kotick wasn’t lying during his company’s financial call last month, when he said that five more “Hero” games would be heading our way this year.

Great. More drunken karaoke is in our future.
