La marca Super Mario de Nintendo perdió en el supermercado costarricense

Autor : Sophia Actualizar : Feb 23,2025

Nintendo sufre un sorprendente revés en una disputa de marca registrada con un supermercado costarricense, "Súper Mario". El supermercado defendió con éxito su uso del nombre, argumentando que era una combinación legítima de su tipo de negocio y el nombre del gerente, Mario. Esta victoria se produjo después de que Nintendo desafió la renovación de la marca registrada del supermercado en 2024.

La batalla legal comenzó cuando el hijo del propietario del supermercado registró la marca registrada "Super Mario" en 2013. Nintendo sostuvo el nombre infringido en su marca Super Mario reconocida mundialmente. Sin embargo, el equipo legal del supermercado argumentó con éxito que el nombre era descriptivo y no tenía la intención de capitalizar la propiedad intelectual de Nintendo.

El propietario del supermercado expresó alivio y gratitud a su asesor legal, José Edgardo Jiménez Blanco, afirmando que casi renunciaron debido a la disparidad de los recursos. El fallo confirma el derecho del supermercado a continuar usando el nombre "Súper Mario".

Si bien Nintendo tiene derechos exclusivos de la marca registrada de Super Mario en muchos países en varias categorías de productos, este caso subraya los desafíos de la protección de la marca registrada, particularmente cuando se enfrentan a las empresas con un reclamo legítimo de un nombre similar. El resultado sirve como una historia de advertencia, incluso para las principales corporaciones, destacando las complejidades de las disputas de propiedad intelectual.

Two Embers – Part 1 By [Your Name] The sky over Vaelthar had not known true night for seven years. It was not darkness that had been stolen—it was silence. The stars, once silver needles stitching the heavens, had been smothered by a slow, creeping haze: the breath of the Emberwyrms, ancient beasts of fire and memory, stirring once more from their slumber beneath the ash-choked earth. Their awakening had not come with war, nor with thunder. It came in whispers—flickers in the wind, embers carried on forgotten songs. And now, from the ruins of the old city, two figures moved like shadows through the ash. One was a girl—barely more than a child, with hair like burnt copper and eyes that shimmered like polished obsidian. She carried no weapon, only a cracked locket hanging from a chain of blackened iron. Inside, a portrait of a man who had not lived to see her grow. The other was a man—or what was left of him. His face was hidden beneath a helm forged from the petrified wing of a dead wyrm, and his cloak was stitched from ash-woven silk, said to absorb sound. He called himself Kaelen the Mute, though he had once spoken in tongues. He carried a blade named Dawn's Last Sigh, its edge not made of steel, but of captured lightning. They walked not toward safety, but toward the heart of the Emberfen—the dead forest where trees burned without flame, their roots feeding on sorrow. “Why here?” she whispered, her voice barely louder than the wind through the skeletons of birch. Kaelen did not answer. He pressed a hand to his chest, where a scar pulsed like a dying ember. A memory. Not his own. Then, from deep beneath the earth, a sound. A heartbeat. Not the earth’s. Something else. A voice, not in words, but in feeling—cold and vast, like a dream you cannot wake from. "She remembers." The girl flinched. The locket warmed. “Who said that?” she demanded. Kaelen knelt, placing a hand on the cracked soil. His fingers trembled. “He remembers you,” he said at last, his voice rough, as if carved from stone. “And that means you are not the only one who was forgotten.” A fire began to bloom in the distance—not from wood, not from kindling, but from the air itself. It curled upward, forming shapes: faces, half-erased, weeping. One face turned, and for a heartbeat, the girl saw her mother. She screamed. And the world cracked.
