Black Forest Games posted a very interesting message on Twitter earlier today. In it, the studio said that the law department for DIESEL – a jeans company – sent a letter about an impending lawsuit for the IP DieselStormers.

Black Forest’s tweet reads:

We followed up about this and were told that, after applying for the DieselStormers IP, Black Forest was informed about a claim raised by DIESEL against the trademark because it might led to customer irritation. Black Forest says the only remotely fashion-related picture the company has is the one above, which makes this all the more stranger.

Black Forest’s legal team is currently looking into the case. The studio hopes that the situation will be resolved peacefully.

Curve Studios made it known on Twitter today that The Swapper is heading to Wii U. We’ve since learned a bit more about the game, including how it stacks up to some of the other versions.

Regarding The Swapper’s graphics and frame rate on Wii U, Curve said the following:

Kotaku also has a small write up about The Swapper. According to the site, Curve redid the controls for the GamePad so that the game now includes a touch-only mode and control-stick options. Kotaku also states that the Wii U version is “better looking than the upcoming PS3 version, preserving the PC original’s depth of field.”

Finally, Curve mentioned earlier today that The Swapper will be hitting Wii U later this year. Kotaku has the title pinned down for a November release.
