May not want to use Nintendo's trademarks in your marketing. Like Mario, they're not afraid to use the proverbial hammer on those who use their trademarks in commercial endeavours without permission.

Oh I'm well aware. In this case, we reference trademarks only as much as necessary for descriptive purposes.

I didn't know that was permitted. Would that be considered fair use in this context?

EDIT : Forget about it, I’ve found the answer myself, I was just too dumb.
Of course it doesn’t sound the same as in the game without the reverb.

Yes, you can read more about it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nominative_use

So to compare our use vs. the factors described on that page...

(1) We can't identify the concept of N64 reverbs without, well, identifying the source...
(2) We are only using as much of the trademark as necessary - we don't use any Nintendo logos (which would not be necessary) for example
(3) We don't suggest that this is an official work from Nintendo, and I don't think it could possibly be construed as such.

Now if we had a big picture of Mario on the product page, and said "These are the OFFICIAL reverb algorithms from the N64!" or something similar, that would be overboard and could cause confusion, so we are careful to not do that.

SNES mode:

- If you invert the polarity of one of the channels, that's a totally non-mono-compatible stereo image (and can get weird in headphones too) so I'd recommend some caution with that...

Awww man.

Thank you for taking the time to explain that.
