Eternal Darkness is Nintendo's property I think, but this is just the spiritual successor.

This is a different game to eternal darkness, so it could come on any platform,

I read that Nintendo owns patents on the some of basic mechanics  of the game, like the sanity meter, so that means this game might not be anything like the first one. I'm starting to get the feeling this wont end well.

Why will this be a system seller again?

Are you being serious?  If this game is console exclusive to Wii U and includes the insanity meter from Eternal Darkness I think people will get really excited.

Really, REALLY excited.

I mean, I can see why you would say a Mario or Zelda game is a system seller, but why this?

Because Eternal Darkness was one of the best games on the GameCube
Because Eternal Darkness gained a massive fanbase
Because Eternal Darkness made a very innovative game
Because Eternal Darkness was an amazing adult game for a system everyone said was for kids.
Because this is a spiritual successor/sequel to Eternal Darkness

Because it's awesome.

Also the first Nintendo published title with a Mature rating.

How ridiculous, albeit unlikely, would it be if they were trolling everyone.  Claiming the crowdfunding campaign will start on Monday then BAM! Nintendo Direct announcing Nintendo will publish the game.

 

My head would explode.

Would be nice if it was an exclusive.

Precursorgames.com is registered in Bellevue, about 15 minutes from NOA headquarters.

 

shadowoftheeternals.com is registered through Amazon Web Services and GoDaddy.  The domain name was registered in July of 2012, and expires July of this year, obviously it would be renewed.

 

I have something super crazy rattling around my head with regard to a theory I have with this, but I'll keep it to myself, its wayyyyy too far fetched.

Retro Studios and Silicon Knights were tight back in the Gamecube days. Maybe Retro is collaborating (aside from making their own project) to make Shadow of Eternals? 

[Alph]

I heard it is PC and Wii U exclusive. Might be a system seller.

Go back and play the original and then imagine it updated for current generation.....then come back and answer your own question.

 

Btw I'm not seeing Mario moving many Wii U's

Thank you....it would be no different than Nintendo reviving any of their old beloved franchises.  When did 3DS' start to move?  When Kid Icarus came out that is when.
