Nintendo renews trademarks Twilight Princess and Wii Sports Resort | General News | NintendoReporters

 [![Nintendo renews trademarks Twilight Princess and Wii Sports Resort](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/nintendo-renews-trademarks-twilight-princess-and-wii-sports-resort.jpg "Nintendo renews trademarks Twilight Princess and Wii Sports Resort")](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/nintendo-renews-trademarks-twilight-princess-and-wii-sports-resort.jpg)Nintendo continues to protect its intellectual properties and has renewed trademarks for both The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and Wii Sports Resort.

## [](#but-why)But why?

These trademarks cover a variety of things including ‘program for home video game machine’, ‘downloadable video game program’ and ‘program for smartphone’

One option could be that they are doing it to breath even more Wii titles into the Nvidia Shield which features Wii titles. But we don’t know.

Im not sure I would want a re-re-issue of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess for the Nintendo Switch … well … maybe I do … because of the portable aspect. But it should be reflected in it’s pricing.

I don’t see the need for Wii Sports Resort at all to be honest though even if it ends up being for the Nvidia Shield.
