Nintendo has registered a few new trademarks (via CVG) in Japan that, quite frankly, will do nothing more than cause rampant speculation. We will list them here along with our own, ill-informed thoughts on the future of the product name:- Wii Body Controller, the oft-discussed hula-hoop attachment
- Wii Handle: we're pulling out our dictionaries for the second definition of handle, a screen name. No, Nintendo wouldn't do that, we're actually guessing it's some sort of barbell attachment for Wii Weightlifting.
- Nintendo Magic: a game that prints money, obviously.
- Mii Audition: it's kind of like the Everybody Votes channel ... except the winner is probably the avatar that looks most like a penis.
- Soma Bringer: CVG tells us this is some kind of noodle. Could Nintendo be entering the culinary business? Will Mario be getting a new power-up? O, the anticipation!
Additionally, Nintendo has renewed the Pikmin trademark -- and though the quirky game seems perfectly fit for the Wii and is no doubt in development, we're pretty sure Nintendo would have renewed its ownership regardless of current plans.
