Another fallout from THQ’s recent auction is the transfer of the WWE licence. IGN reports that it is now in the hands of Take-Two Interactive.

One thing to note: the rights were apparently sold outside THQ’s formal auction process. Exact details behind the negotiation are currently unknown.

One user on the Capcom-Unity boards asked about a possible Resident Evil Mercenaries game for consoles and PC. This wouldn’t be a port of 3DS’ Mercenaries 3D. Rather, it’d be a brand new title with modern visuals.

Capcom’s Christian Svensson, responding to the note, said: “Understood on the request. Let’s talk next week on this topic.”

Svensson also had a few things to say about Resident Evil: Revelations HD’s Raid Mode. This will be “extremely expanded”.

“The other thing you should look forward to is trying out the extremely expanded raid mode (details to come in the coming months) in RE:Revelations. I find it scratches a LOT of the same itches.”

“What we experienced with the Wii U is probably what a lot of developers experienced with the Wii U, which is, ‘What do we do with it?. It was this really neat secondary controller that has a screen and you can do different things on it. When I talked to my friends who were designing games for the Wii U, it’s like, ‘We don’t quite know what to do with it’. It’ll probably be about a year before you start to see games just completely nail exactly what that controller is for.” – ‘The Cave’ dev Ron Gilbert

I can understand his point and he’s probably right, but if you’re a game developer who can’t think of things to do with the Wii U Gamepad then I’d say don’t do anything with it beyond menu scrolling and item selection! Nothing wrong with a game just being a regular ol’ game.
