The domain name for Super Mario 4 has been registered, leading many to believe the name is being reserved for the upcoming 2D Mario for the Nintendo 3DS.

The rejection is non-final (and even when such rejections are labeled as “final”, the process is far from over, given that there can be, at minimum, an appeal to the Federal Circuit).
Good, as they should! A game mechanic like that shouldn't be locked behind a patent, and Nintendo didn't invent it either.
Nintendo wants to keep wasting money on bullshit lawsuits, real smart in this economy. They should put that money aside for other game projects. On the other hand, I don't care if they waste it all either, and they are screwed in the future maybe that will teach them a lesson.

Nintendo completed its share repurchase and set its secondary offering price at 8,347 yen ahead of March 16 delivery.

Nintendo filed a lawsuit in the United States Court of International Trade.
Nintendo of America is suing the United States government over the sweeping tariffs President Donald Trump put in place last year, according to a complaint filed Friday in the U.S. Court of International Trade and obtained by Aftermath.
LOL I read this on gaff, will they refund the money back to the gamers? highly unlikely. Didn't they just raise prices and pass it onto the gamers? Only Nintendo would send out the Ninjas to the US government.
this sounds pretty interesting. i would love an actual 2d super mario bros. 4
"...Mario Party 3DS, Mario Party 11, and Mario Party 12 have all been taken by someone other than Nintendo"
Why be a d*?
I agree dark-hollow, a sequel to the original mario trilogy with SMW elements (such as the cape).
Super Mario 4...
Just don't kill the physics Nintendo. Learn from Sonic Team's mistake. :)
I guess I thought Nintendo was implying a NSMB-type game as the new 2d 3ds game, but if this name ends u being correct, perhaps it'll actually be an old school, sprite-based title. Interesting.
