Nintendo snags more Wii-related trademarks

Nintendo sure loves registering trademarks. The latest bunch of trademarks snagged by House N has us all a bit perplexed as we can't quite figure out how they would serve the company and its upcoming console. The list reads:

  • WiiCan

  • WiiClub

  • WiiCommunication

  • WiiDiary

  • WiiHappy

  • WiiHealth

  • WiiHome

  • WiiKids

  • WiiMap

  • WiiOnline

  • WiiSenior

  • WiiWords

  • WWWii

Now, the only thing we can logically predict at this moment in time is that the term Wiican is Nintendo's entry in the Coca-Cola/Pepsi wars. We personally would've went with Ninten-Cola, but I guess it's a fine enough name. Or maybe Nintendo is trying to market the Wii to the Pagan game-playing crowd?
