A month or so back, Nintendo filed a trademark for a game named S.T.E.A.M: Strike Team Eliminating the Alien Menace. It was weird because it was out of nowhere. No one predicted it and no website said that Nintendo were going to file a trademark for it. I was wondering what people think of it and what they think it is. What genre, concept, or even setting? Is this Miyamoto's IP? Retro's second game? Maybe just a regular announcement?

To me, it sounds like a FPS, but not a military one but an alien shooter. There has been sepculation that Miyamoto's IP is a FPS so this might be it. I think this is going to be a Metroid Prime x Call of Duty game. The aliens and  creatures may be similar to those in Metroid games but the whole Strike Team being like a high tech Call of Duty alien hunting army. 

I just hope that if it is an alien type FPS, I hope Nintendo announce a military FPS to provide an alternative to BF and CoD, and Halo and Titanfall, but it must obviously be unique. 

What do you think S.T.E.A.M is?
