Suda51's codename D gets a title?

Diabolical Pitch could be horror/baseball mix.

The mysterious Kinect title from No More Heroes creator Suda51, so far only referred to as codename D, might just have got an official title.

Siliconera spotted a new trademark listing filed by Suda's Grasshopper Manufacture outfit for something called Diabolical Pitch.

No further information is offered by the listing but put together the baseball theme of the codename D trailer debuted at the Tokyo Game Show last year with that title and it seems like a nice fit.

Microsoft unveiled the game during its TGS presentation, explaining, "You must fight for your life to survive an evil amusement park filled with twisted and eerie creatures. With codename D for Kinect for Xbox 360, you are the controller as you unleash devastating effects to destroy enemies and objects.

Take a look at the clip below for an early glimpse of the no doubt mad-as-a-badger baseball/survival horror hybrid.
