David vs. Goliath: Costa Rican Supermarket Defeats Nintendo in Trademark Battle

A Costa Rican supermarket owner has won a trademark battle against Nintendo, the Japanese video game giant.

The supermarket owner, Juan Carlos Rojas, had attempted to register the name of his store, “Super Mario,” but Nintendo objected.

Rojas persevered and won the case, proving that small businesses can stand up to big corporations.

Rojas’ victory is a testament to the determination of small businesses. He was not deterred by Nintendo’s objections, and he ultimately prevailed in court. Rojas’ victory sends a message to other small businesses that they should not be afraid to stand up to big corporations.

The case also highlights the importance of trademark law. Trademark law protects businesses from having their names copied by other businesses.

In this case, Rojas was able to protect his trademark because he had been using it for many years, 20 years to be exact.

Rojas’ victory is a win for small businesses everywhere. It shows that even small businesses can stand up to big corporations and win.
