Uh oh, Duke — you’re no longer the only cat with a set of hard shiny ones. Apogee Software, the studio responsible for thethree upcoming handheld iterations of theDuke Nukemfranchise, hastrademarked“Balls of Steel.” Groovy.

As with all filings, it’s impossible to ascertain whatBalls of Steelwill become. It’d be nice if it were a full retail release with all the cute little frills (strippers and flushable urinals) we’ve come to expect from a Nukem title. Unfortunately, games starring the Duke have a tendency to disappear, reappear, and then teased for a stretch of years … so, uh, we’ll wait until something solid comes through the pipeline before getting excited.
