The Wonderful 101: Remastered goes up on Kickstarter
- Thread starter --R
- Start date
I'm super happy that this was funded so quickly and looks to be so successful on KS, but I'm still wary about the game's performance once it launches. I really still don't see it doing well, the concept is just way too hard to market.
It's one of Platinum's best games but it's got such a steep learning curve. I fear it's just gonna bomb again, this time on 3-4 platforms.

If you're being serious.. not much of one. It will definitely sell for $40 digitally when it releases.. you're gonna be hard-pressed finding too many people who will give up the coins from Nintendo to save a few bucks from a stranger. There isn't a huge incentive.
Haha thanks!
I go by a different name on twitter, so maybe you can ask him a general question about those that are already blocked.
grumbling at the Dangen news, conflicted with my interest in playing an excellent Platinum game I've never touched for some reason
I'd agree, but in the interview they aren't clear about the ownership proportion for W101 (unlike other games). Nintendo definitely still owns part of it though.
I just realized this is a remaster and not a port. for the love of Jubileus, please fix the issues the game had and don't just port. Removing 90% of space harrier sections alone will make the game 10x better imo. I'm also assuming the sections where we had to look at the other screen on the Wiiu controller will be removed or greatly improved.
I'm happy this games gets a second chance at life! I already own the Wii U version, but I'd be interested in double dipping. Will wait to see how the Switch and PC versions turn out first though.
oh shit lmao the lowest pledge is 3.9k yen welp i'm gonna pass on this then
thanks
it's a pre-order designed to circumvent the cynicism around crowdfunding, while also actively distorting future understandings of video game budgets
we don't know (1M) is a joke....
but if there's Xbox it will be 750K
Anyone wondering what this means for the Bayonetta games, Nintendo told Platinum they could self-publish 101 if they wanted to make it multiplatform. Nintendo did that because the game flopped originally. They won't give Platinum the option for Bayonetta 2 and 3.
Nintendo has the first right of refusal. For example, Sega still owns Bayonetta, but they have the first right of refusal. They gave that up, so Platinum went to Nintendo to publish. Bayonetta 2 and 3 aren't Nintendo games, they are Sega games published by Nintendo and developed by Platinum.

FYI Kickstarter is damn near a marketing thing at this point, the funds usually already secured when corporate entities make one.
Probably approvals and licensing fees on top of that, if I'd have to guess. Plus money to hire QA Testers and stuff. It could still obviously get delayed slightly given the additional console ports, but shouldn't be a significant amount.
Your card will be charged after the 31 days in March, not now.
I can also wait two months and buy it for 20€ instead of 30€ now
So I'm trying to figure out the point of this Kickstarter. Obviously it's not a "we need this money otherwise the game won't exist" thing because those numbers are tiny. Sell 40,000 copies at $20 each (after the 30% cut) and they're already in the black.
Is it basically just a way to have a high profile pre-order campaign that allows them to bypass the 30% cut taken by Valve? I'm going to assume Nintendo and Sony would still charge them for the digital keys, but we know Valve don't.

*smacks forehead*
I feel like an idiot haha.
If you're disgusted by that you should see what they're doing on mobile!
