Imagine ruining your relationship with nintendo over bomba 101
I honestly don't expect Platinum to put their self-funded stuff on Switch so unless Nintendo is just allowing them to publish but keeping the rights that's what I see happening.

If PlatinumGames asked to buy the Wonderful 101 IP from Nintendo so that they could publish it on every platform but Switch Nintendo would probably refuse to play ball.
Seriously. Also PlatinumGames ain't some salty ass kids. They ain't getting revenge on Nintendo for not porting it on Switch, wtf.
Platinum's thing is spectacle, and whilst I'm sure they're happy to do that within the confines of Nintendo platforms when Nintendo is funding it, they won't want to be held back when they've got freedom of choice.
I'm not sure they would but I think if Platinum were buying the publishing rights(if not the IP) a multiplatform release would be idea.
I found out about Arlo through this site, I think probably around last E3. I don't always agree with him but for the most part I think his videos are very entertaining. I like his channel cuz it is different. I just found out he's going to PAX East next month and it'll be my first time going, so tbh I'm super excited about possibly getting to meet him and take a pic with the puppet!
All these people here arguing about Arlo while our Nintendo fangirl chrissy teigen doing fancy Nintendo stuff lmao
Assasins creed unity leaked because someone overheard in a bar, right? Or it was a plane?
I sure hope this W101 situation doesn't affect Nintendo's relationship with Platinum - their collaborations really enhace the Switch & WiiU library.
Lmao in the comments she's talking about the piano boss is the worst boss. Did she forget about B2!!
nah, they just want the game on the switch. they're not stupid enough to ask for impossible things. Nintendo is one of their biggest customers, they're not gonna overstep their boundaries
Plane. (Forgot if it was Unity tho)
It wasn't even overheard. The dev showed the dude some docs and images of the game lmfao, the dev didn't give a fuck
Would W101 keep its exclusive even if Nintendo isn't involved?
I doubt it's even a matter of choice for them. Sure, I imagine they'd prefer it if every one of their titles ran at a consistent 60 FPS at the very least, but none of Platinum's PS4/XBO titles have been lookers. They're just never given that impressive of a budget because their games are almost never worthy of that investment. I doubt their self-publishing titles will be powerhouses.
It's a co own IP, between PlatinumGames and Nintendo.
So yes. Unless Nintendo sell the IP, but it's not happening, no point for Nintendo doing that.
The last tomb raider part was also leaked because someone was working on slides in a public space...so...
Shure?
If they are not interested in it, and are intereested in a good relationship with platinum, they could give this one to Kamija for some money they got from Tencent?
Yes, unless Nintendo sells the IP because they truly want nothing to do with it
Nintendo doesn't do that.
Just let PlatinumGames self publish it, and get some free money out of it thanks to the copyrights.
I love love love both TMS and TW101... But yeah I never expected Nintendo to publish TMS, and to ignore TW101.
Both are products that are hard to sell in western countries that aren't France (one is a game about the idol culture, the other is a game about Super Sentai), but TW101 still seems like the less hard to market.
Persona 5's huge success, Fire Emblem recent success with Awakening, Fates and Heroes, and the upcoming SMT 5 are probably what has lead Nintendo to think that TMS was the safer bet, but I wasn't expecting that (well, I was expecting Nintendo to bring both actually. But if I had to guess that one would not be ported, I would had guess TMS)
I feel like there's going to be a push on the 'Generations' style games, as well. RFA will get some additional content, Brain Training's surprise success will continue with the championship element, and I keep thinking Switch Sports Club will make an appearance, and if that's the case, then it's only a matter of time before nintendogs/cats returns. Then why not throw in some WarioWare, Rhythm Heaven, and Band Brothers for good measure. That's my gut feeling at the moment.
But nintendo published it which it seems they won't do with W101
SMTV is definitely not getting its first trailer in years to release a few months later lol.
BD2 is a good possibility though.
My guess is Paper Mario and Xenoblade DE (which adds to Pokemon DLC pack 1, FE DLC, TMS #FE and Pokemon Mystery Dungeon).
Mother 3 non-remake would already be big in a lineup lol.
I felt similar before rebooting it the Holiday break. It's not the type of game I'll sink quite as much into as on the Wii U but it works really well for brief amusement.
To be honest I don't expect SMTV to release first half of the year (I was joking but Atlus do weird things sometimes) but I do see a big trailer happening in the Febuary Direct leading to a September/October release. Atlus teased that game moving into 2020. Still a trailer early this year still fits the RPG heavy first half of 2020 in my book (even if its just a trailer and not a release).
I do actually think the RPG we will get is a new Paper Mario Releasing first half of 2020.

The "most infamous quotes of the industry" thread is hilarious.
Someone on the thread reminded us of the fake Wired interview with Yamauchi from 2005, in which he supposedly said that at a meeting with Ballmer, who had just laugh after hearing the word "yellow", Yamauchi told him in english "why don't you suck my tiny yellow balls, Ballmer ?"
So many websites back then believed that it was a true interview lmao.
"Concerns about Jumpman having a mustach were raised, because he could look like Hitler. But Jumpman is Italian, Italians are hairy, and I said so what if some idiots mistake him for Hitler ?"
This shit was so wild. Fun fake interviews that made a lot of noises back then lol, it makes me rolling to imagine all the websites that reported on it, the interview is so offensive and ridiculously bad lmao

I think so. I think the direct is the 6th more than the 13th. There is a Persona 5 scrmable demo that day which I think will be shadow dropped in the japanese direct (Japan get extra content like always)
Also I dont like that idea of having the direct on the 13th again (it annoys me for some reason lol)
The expectations will be extremely high for this next direct (February). Majority will probably be pleased.
It's fun to go in with lots of hype and expectations as long as you know how to manage disappointment.

"Mr. Aonuma-san, can you please fill me in on the story and gameplay details for The Legend of Zelda: Rule of the Armaments™, the game we've been working on for three years and counting? I'm fuzzy on the details."
"Sure kid, just grab me a Sapporo Light and I'll tell you everything."
We should do this, all together.
#TeamJanuary and #TeamFebruary just divided us... We need to chose a date and all act like if it's really happening.
Interesting that Emily said we'll know what's going on with Wonderful 101 "soon enough". Does that mean it's back in the port pile for 2020, but as a self-published Platinum game?
And for those worrying about Nintendo & Platinum's future relationship, I wouldn't. Bayonetta 3 & Astral Chain went ahead even after all the difficulties of Wii U. They have a good partnership and I expect we'll see some good stuff come from that in the future even as Platinum try to move into self-publishing. Having more Nintendo-funded projects to sell to an enormous Switch user base is a good option when Platinum are taking on more risk through their Tencent funding.

That's too low. Add Federation Force. Metroid Prime Quadrology
