FYI...It's been reported that Nintendo submitted nine (yes, nine) different trademark applications concerning the name of their upcoming handheld know currently as the Nintendo DS. The nine submissions all consist of three letters with each one possessing the letters G and B, which of course would stand for "Game" and "Boy". The other character varies throughout the submissions in both location and letter, leaving wide open the possible name for Nintendo's latest device. The initialisms, which all went in to the Japanese patent and trademark database on March 19, are listed below:
DGB
EGB
GBD
GBE
GBN
GBY
TGB
WGB
XGB
So with the blessings of Chuck Woolery, we'll try to come up with the names that might be used by the above listed initials. Would it be possible that the "Game Boy Next", "Game Boy Dual" or my favorite, the "Trippy Game Boy" will be the namesake of Nintendo's next handheld...only time will tell!
