Slot machine's proposed logo suspiciously familiar to a classic video game soranews24.com

While legalized gambling looms of the horizon in Japan, quasi-legal forms of it still exist such as the many brightly-lit pachinko and slot machine parlors that dot the urban landscape.
However, according to a tweet by a trademark bot (@trademark_bot) one slot maker isn’t going to let that stop them.
▼ A trademark application by Kita Denshi for a slot machine called Wheel of FortuneFans of role-playing games and video games in general ought to recognize that layout as the logo for the classic Chrono Trigger.
▼ “LOL”The fact that this slot machine was named after a long-running American game show is forgivable since Wheel of Fortune is virtually unknown in Japan.
But the design similarities between Wheel of Fortune and Chrono Trigger are so frequent that there is no way the similarity could be coincidental.
