A suspicious trademark appears! Command?

This is way speculative, but a new trademark registration by Square Enix may be a sign that the Dragon Quest IV remake is finally near. At the very least, it's a sign that something might be on the way, for some system. The trademark covers the phrase "Chapters of the Chosen."

A Siliconera commenter cleverly remarked that it would be a great subtitle for Dragon Quest IV, which is broken up into individual chapters telling separate characters' stories. The original Japanese subtitle is "Michibikareshi Monotachi" ("The Guided People," or as Wikipedia has it, "Those Who are Shown the Way").

If that's what this is, it would be a pretty strong indicator that Dragon Quest IV is being planned for U.S. release. Other evidence to support that theory includes the existing translation found on the card and Square Enix's interest in money.
