Miyamoto 60th Birthday Writeup, Full, English and Unedited

There's some facts that needed checking in that. For example the IP for Eternal Darkness I'm pretty sure is owned by Nintendo, in fact I could swear they've renewed the IP a few times since the game came out.

LOLZ

[Dolemite]

Nope, its fully owned by Silicon Knights, they have shopped it around in recent years but nobody cared.

GEE, THAT'S SOME CRACK JOURNALISTIC FACT-CHECKING THERE

[Dolemite]

BTW, you really need to learn what commas are for.

[Almaci]

Silicon Knights right before its total implosion was working on a ED2 demo for the high def consoles to shop around to the big publishers.

Thats the original, any sequel and derived works is in the hands of Silicon Knights(the company consists of the owner and his wife these days)

I'm not sure whether something didn't translate over to English properly, but this article wore kid gloves. The gaming media article was way more interesting.

[Dolemite]

Thats the original

But you said Silicon FULLY owned the IP. Please explain how when Nintendo owns the name.

any sequel and derived works is in the hands of Silicon Knights(the company consists of the owner and his wife these days)

Source, pls.

You can still punch someone in the cock with kid gloves on.

1. That doesn't mean they have the IP. 2 The demo they were shopping around, if it got published was going to use a name different than ED2, and the names and story would have to be different. Nintendo owns that IP, including all characters and story.

It was going to be a spiritual successor to ED, not actually ED2.


I mean you seriously think, Nintendo would own the IP, but not own the rights to make a sequel? That even though Nintendo owned the IP, that some how Silicon Knights could release a game called Eternal Darkness 2....... Are you serious with this, or is this just lame troll bait attempt?
