Nintendo Have Applied For A New Trademark For Dr. Mario World

Covered by 5 sources · 5 articles

Nintendo has filed a trademark application for Dr. Mario World, the mobile puzzle game the company shut down in October 2021 due to insufficient player engagement. The filing has sparked speculation about whether Nintendo intends to revive the title or develop a new entry in the Dr. Mario World series. While the trademark alone doesn't confirm plans for a sequel or relaunch, it indicates Nintendo is maintaining legal protection over the property name, potentially laying groundwork for future mobile or multiplatform releases.

TL;DR
  • Nintendo terminated Dr. Mario World's iOS and Android versions in 2021 after determining the game lacked sufficient active users to justify continued operation.
  • The new trademark application suggests Nintendo isn't abandoning the Dr. Mario World brand entirely, though the filing doesn't clarify whether this precedes a remake, sequel, or other project.
