Pac-Man Getting the Fighter Treatment? [Trademark]

http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/2009/12/custom_1261599982065_pacman.jpgIn Europe, Namco Bandai (http://kotaku.com/tag/namcobandai/) has trademarked something called "Pac-Man: Battle Royale," which sounds less like a reboot or remake of a pellet-chomper, and more along the lines of Tekken with ghosts.
That's straight-up speculation. Siliconera hazarded the guess (http://www.siliconera.com/2009/12/23/ready-for-a-pac-man-battle-royale/) when it found the registration, and it sounds good to me, if only because it sounds better than the same old run-around (a maze).
