You better pay close attention when transferring content over from the Wii to Wii U. That’s because the process is a one-way process. Once content is sent over to the Wii U, it can’t ever go back to Wii.

Don’t count on a new Tatsunoko vs. Capcom game anytime soon. Capcom’s Christian Svensson says that the company’s “rights with Tatsunoko have lapsed fairly recently”, meaning there wouldn’t be another title unless a new deal was decided upon.

The news also affects the original Wii game. Because the deal expired, Capcom is “no longer allowed to sell the title physically or digitally”.

Svensson wrote on the Capcom-Unity boards:

“Our rights with Tatsunoko have lapsed fairly recently (so we’re no longer allowed to sell the title physically or digitally). Unless Japan were to strike a new deal, I’d say the chances of this happening are slim.”
