Disclaimer: This is normal post-registration maintenance and nothing indicative of a product or service being researched or developed. I'm bringing it up due to the use of Metroid: Other M.
On March 22, 2016, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) sent a Courtesy Reminder of Required Trademark Registration Maintenance Filing under Section 8 regarding Nintendo of America's trademark application US Serial Number 77749726, Metroid: Other M, originally filed on June 02, 2009 and registered on March 22, 2011:
On February 28, 2017, a Combined Declaration of Use and Incontestability under Sections 8 & 15 was filed:
The specimen used is this heavily compressed JPEG (here in PNG format to not further compress it):
Also, US Serial Number 77749727, Metroid (one of the two main Metroid trademarks) also saw Combined Declaration of Use and Incontestability under Sections 8 & 15 earlier in February, the specimen used there was the same image as above (for the earlier Statement of Use they used an image of the title screen of the original Metroid for NES).

Metroid: Other M is available as a digital download for Wii U. The goods and services the Other M trademark is filed under do however not include downloadable electronic game software. The goods and services for the Metroid trademark do.
Again, nothing too interesting but I thought due to Metroid: Other M's reputation and how Nintendo has handled the Metroid franchise for years now it was worthy a mention.
