Capcom recently revealed Resident Evil HD for pretty much every major console. But unfortunately, Wii U was not included in the announcement.

Capcom producer Yoshiaki Hirabayashi told Rely on Horror that Nintendo’s console is not the company’s focus when it comes to Resident Evil HD. Rather, the aforementioned platforms are – PS4, PS3, Xbox One, Xbox 360, and PC. A Wii U version wasn’t completely ruled out though, so there’s a small glimmer of hope.

REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–One is a brilliant archeologist who has traveled the world solving puzzles and unearthing ancient civilizations. The other is a bumbling defense attorney whose sense of justice is matched only by his sense of style.

The Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney game launches for Nintendo 3DS on Aug. 29 and combines the puzzle-solving satisfaction of the Professor Layton series with the courtroom drama of the Phoenix Wright franchise.

Capcom is suing Koei Tecmo over a patent infringement, and Sankei has some of the details.

Here’s what we know:

– Capcom is suing due to the patent infringement in games such as Samurai Warriors: Xtreme Legends
– A total of 49 other titles are involved
– Suit is for 980 million yen (about $9.43 million)
– Lawsuit says Capcom filed a patent back in 2002 that involves a function that lets you acquire new content by combining an existing game with another piece of software
– It appears that Capcom is effectively referring to the idea of expansion packs, and the concept of importing content into the new version of a game
– Likely covers expansion discs as well since the patent was filed in 2002
– Another patent mentioned in the report is a controller-vibrating notification feature when enemy characters are nearby
– Capcom claims that the patent infringement “has greatly contributed to the sales” of Koei Tecmo’s titles
– Koei Tecmo has seen a profit of about 9.73 billion yen in total sales
– Capcom wants to acquire around 5 – 10% in license fees
– They’re also demanding the suspension of sales on several Tecmo Koei titles
