Nintendo registers trademark for Wave Race in Europe
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 4 Comments
A new trademark for Wave Race has surfaced in Europe. Nintendo filed for the name today, and it was published with the European Union Intellectual Property Office.
Now, before we jump to conclusions, it’s important to note that this doesn’t necessarily mean a new Wave Race game is in the works. It’d certainly be nice, but trademarks aren’t always indicative of upcoming announcements. The trademark could be a protective measure on Nintendo’s part. Only time will tell if there’s any additional meaning here.

Nintendo announced today a new partnership with SCRAP on Defenders of the Triforce. Beginning at the very end of January, fans of the Zelda series can work together in teams of six to solve a mystery in a huge area and within a set time limit.

Once the main puzzle experience is finished, those who attend Defenders of the Triforce can then receive access to photo opportunities as well as a promotional lounge. Here, exclusive Zelda merchandise can be purchased.
