I mean a lot of the biggest Indie games coming out right now are Metroidvanias. Nintendo probably doesn't want to use that term because of the -vania half.


The Metroid part is no good either. That would promote genericization of the trademark. I doubt there's any real chance Nintendo loses the trademark but it's still enough of a threat that Nintendo will avoid doing it intentionally.
