Square Enix registered a new trademark in Europe and also nabbed a domain name for something called “The Mad & The Monstrous”. Of course, no such title has been announced by the company thus far. Square Enix Japan is listed as the website’s holder for what it’s worth.

Just as with any licensing agreement, there comes a time when a certain content distributor is o longer legally allowed to sell the content they licensed from a particular third party. Such a day has come for Rock Band creator Harmonix, as they will be yanking the much-loved ‘Metallica’ from their store– or at least, one pack of their songs that was released for players to download.

“Metallica Pack 01” (including such hits as ‘Ride the Lightning’ and ‘Blackened’) is now unavailable from the console-accessed ‘Rock Band Music Store’, and soon it will also be removed from first-party marketplaces as well. More songs will likely follow suit going into the next few months or years, but Harmonix says they’re looking to extend an “overwhelming majority” of content licenses they have to minimize the legalese’ effect on their customers.

Nintendo has yet to announce a North American release date for Game & Wario. However, if GameFly is to be believed, the Wii U title is set for June 30.

We typically don’t put much stock into retailer discoveries, but GameFly tends to be correct in most instances. You may remember that the release date and name for Mario Tennis Open were leaked through GameFly prior to Nintendo’s official announcement.

As you can see above, this survey sent out by Nintendo’s customer service asks whether or not folks would buy first party Wii Remote charger packs from the Big N, and, subsequently, if they would pay $40 for a single battery pack, charging cradle, and other accessories. The most interesting bit of the survey is that they’re touting a potential 13 hours of use after just 90 minutes of charging, which is something I would love to have!

I’m not sure if I’d pay $40 for just one battery pack though, even if it did come with the cradle, cases, etc. I’d need at least two with the purchase…
