Night Trap ReVamped Won't Head to Nintendo Consoles

Night Trap ReVamped won't be heading to Nintendo platforms, the creators said in a statement.

The game, a horror experience, involves a group of teenagers who arrived at an isolated home for weekend. Not all is at it seems, however, as deadly creatures stalk the hallways and the neighbour has invented a deadly laser weapon.

The developer is currently seeking funding on Kickstarter, but the project won't be available on Nintendo systems due to "too much bad blood" between them and Nintendo.

Ever hear the term "never burn bridges?" Well, Howard Lincoln, the former president of Nintendo US, made our lives miserable during the 1994 Senate Hearings on Video Game Violence. Not only did he quietly suggest to congressman, though the use of Nintendo-supplied and heavily edited footage, that they should demonize Night Trap rather than Nintendo's Mortal Combat, but he also declared publicly that Night Trap would never appear on a Nintendo system.

And he was right: as much as Nintendo desperately needs publishers to support their third-place platform, we won't be one of them. There's just too much bad blood between us and them.

Do you think Nintendo should make amends for Night Trap ReVamped?
