It would seem that Nintendo are still interested in bringing Eternal Darkness back in some form or another. Although we know that Nintendo have successfully registered the Trademark and it’s a normal part of the Trademark process (I reported on this a while back), it’s worth noting a Notice of Allowance for Eternal Darkness was issued on May 9, 2017. You can view the whole file here.
Nintendo of America can now begin to submit a Statement of Use (SOU) or a Request for Extension of Time to file a Statement of Use (Extension Request) every six months. Extension Requests can be processed for a maximum of five times.
It’ll be interesting to see if this years E3 holds any answers.
Would you like to see another Eternal Darkness see the light of day?
||Eternal Darkness will never see the light of day because it only stays in eternal darkness…||
Let’s hope you’re categorically wrong, Commander.
||I’m never wrong if you read into it more closely…||
I am the arrow of light that pierces the heart of darkness.

Yes please! Definitely want this game. I’ll settle for an HD remaster, but a sequel would be even better… although, not quite sure how you make a sequel to a game that spans across all of history… Still, some one get it sorted and make it happen! :D
Maybe by going places the first one didn’t? It didn’t span “all of” history ;)
Ah, the obscure Nintendo game for being rated M.
I would rather see a Virtual Console release on Switch than an HD remaster, I loved the Game Cube’s graphics.
I still own the game and my Gamecube. So I can play Gamecube graphics anytime. But with larger TVs, a remaster would help preserve the game as older games look worse and worse as tv resolution goes up.
Skyward sword is unplayable on my TV thanks to Nintendo stubbornly sticking with SD with the Wii.
true i quit playing xenoblade chronicles on wii due the impressive shit resolution and many other games.
Same here, but then I restarted and finished it on my N3DS. Being able to take it anywhere and it not looking like crap allowed me to log the hours needed to finish it. And it was truly a masterpiece. I took a break from partn2, but am excited to get back into it! (Well, not part 2, X I mean)
i finish it 5 mounths ago on the dolphin emulator and it is one of the best games i played with great music, story, combat
If this is an actual hint for GameCube Virtual Console on the Switch, Nintendo can eat my wallet.
Oh O.o .. I thought you were going to say something else in that last sentence….
…… ._.
You know what? Just replace wallet with ass.
They can do that with or without vc. I’m not stopping them.
I only it the game 6 months ago and I loved it, twas amazing, love a full blown sequel on switch :)
Did you play through all 3 Times to get the true ending? :)
One of my favorite games ever.
I love the game on GameCube. It needed a better storyline and plot though half of the game really made no sense at all.
Needs a sequel–an amazing game. The original is wonderful but it’s dated in some standards, and could use updating and expansion with new mechanics and plot.
I played the original recently, and I just couldn’t take it. It’s a very dated game. I’m sure it was fantastic when it came out, but it just doesn’t hold up.
Mind saying what Eternal Darkness is for those of us who never heard of it before?
From what I understand, it’s a psychological horror game and Miyamoto was one of the designers who helped contribute towards it. It’s hilarious to picture a man who has made light hearted games like Mario and Pikmin contributing towards something like this.
What if this is what Retro’s been working on?
Then I would rejoice. Metroid or this, but if they pull cranky Kong out of their ass, I’m gonna… well, I guess nothing since I already stopped giving them my money. :]
Donkey Kong was still very good though.
HD Remaster please! Otherwise, a straight up VC port is just gonna look like dogshit on my 4K telly!
