Nah I get that. But the masses association with the NieR brand I think would mostly land on Platinum rather than SE seeing as Automata sold something like 5 times as many copies as the original did. I played the first close to release and I know that my brain generally lands on Platinum before SE despite knowing better.
Highly unlikely that they'll be releasing four games within a single year. For all we know, the "4" could actually mean Feb 4th on Japan's time schedule (and this is just a single game announcement).
I think it's pretty obvious sites already have stuff for the actual announcements, which it sounds like aren't too far off.
Seems to be showing an homage and montage of history towards their previous games. Platinum logo changes if you stay on the screen. One time it's the NieR glitch-screen, the other is the barrel roll from Star Fox, and so on. My guess is it's just showing their legacy and history while looking forward at what's coming in the future, including the return of W101 on multiple platforms.
I expect these to deviate at least slightly from the usual Platinum beat 'em up gameplay. Probably a couple will be in genres we haven't seen Platinum tackle yet.
None of the big sites have reported on this tease. They probably already have marketing material on what these games are.

We heard that we would hear about TW101, right? Japan is sleeping now, but who knows if we get some info around 10 am there?
Given that it's currently a quarter to five in the morning in Japan, I'd say we'll be talking another four and a quarter hours at the very earliest.
It's probably what Square Enix thinks. We'll see if they are right.
Don't know. Some people claim they see others like Vanquish or MGR if they interact differently.
It's really not. The story telling elements people praise in Automata were largely present in the original Nier and Drakengard 1/3. It's just that more people finally started paying attention to the franchise because:
1. Platinum logo
2. Muh butt, muh boobies
3. A (relatively) big marketing push from Square
"Platinium logo."
You mean, faith that the gameplay would be great?
"Muh butt, muh boobies."
... Uh, right. Great argument you're putting up here.
Downplaying Platinum's involvement in what made Automata as fantastic as it was is absolutely ridiculous. Of course, this was already covered by numerous replies to yet another bad PlanetSmasher post on the last page.
It's one of four announcements, it seems. Hope the other ones happen sometime soon...
If you scroll down on the page, it has 3 empty slots for 2, 3, and 4 "coming soon".
So yeah, 100% confirmed now this is 4 different announcements. Wonderful 101 Kickstarter is the first of four.
Lame that Dangen Entertainment is associated with TW101 so I won't be backing it, hopefully the other announcements are cool.
Scratching head.So yeah, 100% confirmed now this is 4 different announcements. Wonderful 101 Kickstarter is the first of four.

I suppose it's gonna be another 2 kickstarters and a new game?
The Steam goal seems certain. We might make it to $500K. Does Platinum really need that much to port the game to those platforms?
A PC port is not that expensive and since their engine is multiplatform it is even easier.
Wow!
I loved the game but wasn't sure how sales worked out for P✨
