Nintendo Gaming / RE:My prediction - SK is making Zelda

« on: May 14, 2004, 04:36:51 AM »

IGN has an interview up with Perrin Kaplan, Nintendo's VP of corporate affairs, with this interesting quote:

Quote
IGN: We just bumped into Denis Dyack, president of Silicon Knights, as he was on his way into a Nintendo meeting. So what kind of plot are you hatching?

Perrin Kaplan: There is nothing that precludes us from having a relationship. I mean, they may make a product for DS or otherwise. But it's just purely as a second-party -- that part of the relationship has changed.

Seems a little odd the Kaplan offered up that SK is doing a DS title when the question wasn't really asking that directly. Also I think it other telling part is where SK is refered to as a second-party developer.

Which really confuses things, since a month ago, that "relationship with Nintendo" seemed to have come to an end.

That definately does put an interesting spin on things... I know a lot of the attention over the announcement has focused on the Nintendo and SK relationship, but I do not think I have seen any speculation that they have become a Konami development studio. So maybe the part about SK not being held exclusively to Nintendo anymore is true since they are now part of Konami but will be wokring on Nintendo titles for Konami...

Can someone provide a source that proves Soul Calibur 2 is now a Player's Choice title? I haven't seen anything and I just checked the listing on Nintendo.com.

Thanks.
