This makes perfect sence. Silicon Knights are in the shit, Nintendo need "hardcore" games but arent getting the support from third parties so they take the opportunity to get this series back on track. Also casting the magick would be awesome on the gamepad. Happy days!
It's my first GCN game and I absolutely loved it. If they made a sequel on par with the first part, it would be a strong argument for Wii U in my books. Even an HD port would be noteworthy and I'd probably end up getting it eventually.
Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!
My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/
My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.
I still consider Eternal Darkness one of my favorite games ever...
I could replay it a million times and not get tired of it...
I don't know if I would want a sequel...
Too many sequels that ruined great series recently...
I would be more than content with an HD remake...
Have a nice day...
When I bought ED last year, I popped it in after a few months and quit. Then a few months later I played it again and quit. The game is hardly playable, the combat is abysmal. The concept of the game is very nice, but the gameplay really made the game bad (from what I played).

| RolStoppable said: Eternal Darkness is greatly overrated for the sole reason that it was an M-rated IP exclusive to a Nintendo system. I question how many of the people who say that they really liked it actually played through the game three times to see the true ending. Because if they did, they would have realized that the game has some glaring flaws. It's not an IP that is worth continuing. Also, its story doesn't allow for a real sequel, just a new game that reuses ideas like the sanity meter. A new game might as well get an entirely new name altogether, because Eternal Darkness isn't a valuable brandname. |
Of course they could make a sequel, it might not have anything to do with the story or characters directly involved in the first game but it could easily be done. And I do agree with you, Eternal Darkness was not a perfect game or extremely great game but it had potential some brilliant moments that make it memorable.
Honest, I wouldn't let Silicon knights near a sequel or remake, because it seems the teams behind the original game are either gone or lost their mojo. But a remake (I'd prefer a sequel) by one of Nintendo's talented 2nd party developers (Retro) or 3rd party partners would be a epic game for either the 3DS or Wii U.
Until there is a game ready to release... doesn't matter.
Nintendo is always prototyping and messing around with game ideas... they very rarely have faith that people would want to play what they produce internally.

As I said in another post, to give this game to retro is a very bad decission. Retro is in many gamers views the prime card to nintendo, and they should only work on rather large series, important nintendo franchises or completely new ip's. To give them such a small title (sales wise) would be a dumb decission.
Maybe this is Retro's other game.

It's trademarked by nintendo... |
facepalm. Helps if I actually read the linked article.
That's even worse in a way. Means nothing, except they are maintaining the rights and giving themselves the option to release it on eshop.

It should get a e-shop release eventually (most likely virtual console) when nintendo get's their shit together. This whole irtual console stuff is taking to long time :/
