NINTENDO

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “NINTENDO” is no longer active; it was cancelled on October 18, 1999 because the owner, Nintendo of America Inc., did not file a required declaration. The mark had been registered on the Principal Register on April 13, 1993 for class 005, covering pharmaceuticals such as vitamins, mineral supplements, cough suppressants, air fresheners, and bandages for skin wounds. Because the goods are specific to health and wellness products, a similar name used for unrelated items—such as video games, toys, or electronics—would be farther from the scope shown here, but the record still indicates that the owner once held rights in that narrow category. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations beyond the 1999 cancellation appear in the supplied history. The latest meaningful event is the cancellation itself. For someone thinking of a similar name, the closest concern is the pharmaceutical category; otherwise, the risk is lower but not eliminated.
