Eternal Darkness sequel?

[EnigmaXtreme]

Last we heard, Nintendo had let the trademark for Eternal Darkness lapse, and all hope for any sequel or 'New Play Control' version was lost. Now we have some good news to ponder. Nintendo re-upped the trademark on February 10th, 2010, which was just a few days ago. Now we have to ask the question that we asked a long time ago. Is Nintendo teaming with Silicon Knights to finally work on a sequel or revamp, or are they just protecting their classics?

Hehe, I just read the article. Sounds like I missed out on a classic in-game joke. If anyone has a video of the 'Deleting Save File' Sequence, please link it.

As I said on the "Luigi's Mansion sequel?" thread, they do this all the time. Just covering their asses.

A man can dream, cant he?

Not gonna happen. I hope they'll make a sequel after the Too Human trilogy. Both of Silicon Knight's GameCube games were awesome (Eternal Darkness and the MGS remake).

Hehe, I just read the article. Sounds like I missed out on a classic in-game joke. If anyone has a video of the 'Deleting Save File' Sequence, please link it.

In case you don't know, that's the standard save screen with the word "save" replaced with "delete".
Here are some more in case you're interested:

Now that I see this back, I remember how awesome this game was. The last time I played through it was half a year ago though

great game, a sequel would be very nice:.

Eternal Darkness was a great game. Really loves to play with your mind.
Too bad there aren't many games that do that, I love that sorta thing.

A sequel and a re-port to the Wii would be awesome.
I wouldn't hold my breath though.
Unless they can casualify it with some sorta "it helps you loose wait" crap I don't think they'd want to bring back something we'd want to buy.

Sadly it seems like they are renewing the license so Silicon Knights can't remake it themselves for another console.

Then again, I think I'd love a second chance to own the game. I beat it as a rental really.
So I'd hope they'd bring it back and please their hardcore gamer base that is starting to dwindle.
