Wired.com had a chat with Precursor games:
Nintendo has apparently wished the company luck with the crowdsourcing and development:
How does a company of former Silicon Knights employees, buy assets from their former employer - a company that no one appears to work for anymore?
I've made a donation (to thank Dyack and McCulloch for past efforts rather than any optimistic expectations of this venture) - but this story continues to make less sense.
“We did purchase some art assets from Silicon Knights,” Precursor Games CEO Caporicci told Wired via phone this morning, “and we were very happy to be able to put those assets created by the talented past employees to use.”
Nintendo has apparently wished the company luck with the crowdsourcing and development:
Nintendo, Caporicci says, owns the rights to Eternal Darkness. “We’ve been in constant communication with [Nintendo], and they’ve been supporting in working with us to put the game on [Wii U],” he said. “They even wished us luck right before we launched the campaign. So we have a great relationship with them, and we’ll just see where that goes from here.”
