Nintendo applies for new trademark for Dr. Mario World

Back in October 2021 Nintendo terminated the iOS and Android game Dr. Mario World presumably because there just wasn’t enough active users. Now it has emerged that Nintendo has applied for a new trademark for Dr. Mario World leading to online speculation that the game could be ported to the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2.

Thanks to Edward B for sending in the news tip!

  1. It’s weird that the switch was the only Nintendo console to not get a new dr Mario game. Maybe they could revive this as a complete edition or remaster on the switch.

    1. Yeah, the same for Mario Vs. Donkey Kong (at least a mini mario one, but I think that’s probably due to previous gens’ oversaturation)

      It does strike me as kind of strange, considering Dr. Mario really would fit as the perfect sort of eshop exclusive digital only Switch 1 game to pad out a light month on the console. Maybe it’s just they haven’t had much reason/space to slot it in to their dev cycles

  2. I’ve been hoping for awhile now that both this and Dragalia Lost find their way onto Switch/Switch 2. I think this could totally work as like a $15 eShop game.

      1. Frost said there hasn’t been a new Dr. Mario game released on Switch systems and suggested they should port Dr Mario World to Switch.
        Sonicgalaxy said there’s been no ports of Dr. Mario on Switch systems (which isn’t true vis Nintendo Classics apps) and suggested they should remaster the original Dr. Mario.

        I mean… I guess they’re both talking about Dr. Mario and how there should be a game released on Switch? Is only one person allowed to make a comment of that sentiment or something?

  3. Dr. Mario World?

    So what, does he go around doing house calls now? You have to drive from location to location to do a puzzle, returning to the hospital every so often to upgrade your skill tree and there’s an occasional viral outbreak that serves as a boss encounter?

  4. Why did people think this was some kind of hint at the return of Dr. Mario World?
    I’m sure it’s just a routine trademark registration to protect the rights to it.

  5. Jim Jones: i got 900 people to drink poisoned koolaid.

    Anthony Fauci: hold my beer

    Nintendo delayed Advance Wars cause of Ukraine War. Till Nuremberg 2.0 they should hold off on this game.
