Some time ago, Apple removed the arcade genre from the App Store. He was replaced by “Casual.” According to some experts, thus, the Coopertinos decided to “leave” this word exclusively for their own gaming service.
At the same time, experts fear that in the future such actions of Apple may lead to undesirable litigation. So if the company associates the word “Arcade” with its gaming service, rather than with arcade games, the Coopertinos can theoretically start suing all projects that use the word “Arcade” in the titles.
It is worth noting that experts have some grounds for such fears. Coopertinos often go to court to ban the use of logos, which do not even remotely resemble the famous “bitten apple”. About the same situation is observed with slogans. However, in this case, Apple’s lawyers do not always manage to defend the rights of the company.
Recall that Apple introduced its game service called Apple Arcade as part of a special event, which took place in March this year. The new service should give users access to dozens of exclusive games. To do this, owners of apple devices will simply need to subscribe.
