MS would laugh because One would be a good name as it will only come with One Launch Title ... Super New Super Mario Brothers 2D.

Why would they sue? You can't copyright the word "one".

You'd think so, right? Tell that to the makers of Candy Crush who tried in the US to trademark "candy" and successfully trademarked it in EU.

Considering their new president was the one who knew beforehand it was too hard to tell the Wii U was a new console I don't think he would stand for such a stupid name :/

Honestly, Nintendo NX already rings to me. I'm sure they'll change it, but I'd love for NX to be the official name.

apple tried to copyright a picture of an apple and and a beveled edge and than sue anyone and anything that used or was using it long before them

Not candy silly (even though they tried to tm this one too) - Saga.
That's why The Banner Saga can't get a sequel (freakin' nimrods allowing this I tell you).

 

[gamesquest1]

maybe they should call it the nintendo TM and sue anyone who puts TM after their logo

If that happened, most people would rightfully think Ninty have gone full fucking retarded.
