would you buy a remake of Eternal Darkness or Killer 7?

^ As has been said before, Nintendo own the IP

 

Thats right. Damn...maybe the sequel then for next gen systems. What can I say, I like my survival horror in HD...

Do you mean as in Nintendo's next console (which will be in HD as confirmed by Nintendo long ago)?  Because even a sequel won't find a home on Sony or MS consoles because Nintendo owns the IP.

 

That has never been answered.

I understand that nintendo owns the rights to the first game and judging by the answer given below, they have a timed ownershit on the IP.

Just because it's a complicated series of circumstances doesn't mean there is no clear ownerhsip of the IP.  It's not a timed "ownershit" (you might want to trademark that phrase) but joint with circumstances. 

Nintendo owning the patent on the Sanity Meter itself would keep SK from doing anything with the property even if they owned the IP outright unless they completely did away with it but that's like getting rid of the football in a football game.

 

If they can line all their ducks in a row, a sequel or remake is possible.  Unfortunately MS has them tied up with the Too Human trilogy and that leaves very little resources available to commit to another big project.

 

 

Damn, that sucks. I don't know which one of those bolded ownershits blows more...
