Patent? You mean trademark, right? Patents are for inventions.

EVERYONE IN THE WORLD MUST BE COMPLETELY TOLERANT AND EQUAL SO WE HAVE TO HAVE GAY GAMES TOO

I wouldn't be surprised, honestly.

I actually wouldn't mind seeing one.  Just seeing what Nintendo would do with the whole concept would be entertainment enough.

Captain Rainbow, huh?
I can see the gay jokes a mile away.
Well, I hoped Nintendo got a new series; let's see if it will be good enough to break the gay jokes.

Maybe someone who uses the colors as powers?

Or maybe it's what everyone else is saying.... ::)

Hmm, maybe they're localizing Earthbound?

How would something called Mother translate to Captain Rainbow?

Apparently. All they have to do is input crappy jokes, and they'd have it.

its obviously a game about the ancient kids show...reading rainbow, except with a yoyo, which means Ness is in it.

1st Wii, now Captain Rainbow. Nintendo is the laughing stock of the video game industry when it comes to names.

I wonder if the rival is Captain Falcon!  That would be epic.  Power of the rainbow yo-yo vs the falcon paaaaunch.

Captain Rainbow? o_O O-kay.....

If this gets released in the US, no matter what kind of game it is, I somehow imagine this'll turn into an internet forum meme...which should be interesting to see. :P

Likely a Japan only name. If they bring whatever this is to the us they likely will give it a better name.
