MOTHERSerial 74008198 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: NINTENDO OF AMERICA INC.
Class 028 -
Filed Nov 16, 1989
Registered Apr 06, 1993
The record shows that the mark “MOTHER” was registered on the Principal Register by Nintendo of America Inc. and was cancelled on October 11, 1999 because the registrant failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The mark covered electronic game programs (Class 028) and the first use was January 29, 1992. Because the cancellation was due to a maintenance failure, the mark no longer provides any enforceable rights, but the historical registration still indicates that Nintendo once claimed protection for that name in the gaming software field. The prosecution history shows a straightforward allowance and registration sequence with no descriptiveness or opposition issues. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or extensions appear in the supplied history. For someone looking to use a similar name, the closest concern would be in the electronic gaming software area; outside that scope the record offers no indication of control.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
