aah, yes I read that on the wiki a few months ago but thank you very much for posting this, it revealed a lot more details.

I am positive about the sale of Re-Volt even though the future might be covered in fog. It might mean a Re-Volt 2 (which I'm not hoping) or it might mean that this accessory company/publisher will try re-sell Re-Volt along with their main products. We Go Interactive doesn't seem to have a website so who knows what they are up for.

I hope this means a smaller chance of getting future copyright issues with the Re-Volt 1.2 update though we haven't seen anything like that so far.

Hoping it's 'We go Interactive' and not 'We Go Inactive'!

well that's a great news

I hope it only covers the European and North American releases by Acclaim, because the original release (Japanese) is from Taito Corporation (if you tought that RC de GO! is an Acclaim-made alternative to RV you were wrong, Taito developed this game).

been searching some more, but it seems We Go Interactive is more of a reseller than a developer of some sort

i find a lot of customized Wii's and Wii accesories on the internet for sale from We Go Interactive

Sorry if I revive this topic here but you might want to know that We Go Interactive indeed has a website -> http://www.wegoi.com/
I already searched around there (had to register) but couldn't find any trace of Re-Volt or other Acclaim games whatsoever.

However I didn't try to contact them yet so if anyone has some time to contact them feel free to do so.
I also uploaded the contact information details in case you dont want to register for viewing them ->
