Nintendo trademarks Zii in Japan, Creative frowns

Nintendo has trademarked the word “Zii” in Japan. Don’t know what new it brings to the table but this bit of news won’t go well with Creative. The Singaporean-based company has its Zii line of products and also owns the copyright and trademark of the name (in US and presumably in other countries too).

Siliconera who unearthed the filing could be right that the name must’ve been trademarked to “protect Wii typos” but if Nintendo has plans to launch a new console with this name, I guess a lawsuit would be on the horizon, at least outside Japan.
