Yuke’s, developer of the annual WWE titles, is working on a video game based on the Pacific Rim film.

We first came across this news through the OFLC. On the ratings board site, Yuke’s is listed as the author and publisher of Pacific Rim.

It appears that Yuke’s actually made an under-the-radar announcement through its website in mid-March. No details are mentioned in the press release, however.

It’s true that movie-based games often turn out to be disappointing. But since Yuke’s has a pretty decent reputation with the WWE and UFC titles, perhaps there’s a small bit of hope for Pacific Rim.

You know what would be neat? If Wii games were available through the Wii U eShop. Like Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, maybe.

But there isn’t a way to grab digital Wii games in any form – meaning that a digital re-release of Tatsunoko vs. Capcom is out of the question.

Even if it were possible, the previous agreement would need to be amended or a new one would need to be created, according to Capcom’s Christian Svensson who commented on the situation a couple of months ago:

“There’s no plans I’m aware of and as you point it, it would mean Capcom Japan amending the prior agreement or creating a new one as well as potentially new development, unless Nintendo at some point has plans to release Wii ISOs digitally (which I’m not aware of happening).”

A quick glance at Amazon shows that Tatsunoko vs. Capcom is available at retail for around $25. If you haven’t already purchased the game, that’s not a bad price!
