Unannounced Platinum Game Coming to E3 (IGN)

My guesses for that it is

1) Metal Gear Rising 2 on account of it already being teased/denied once. (Nobody teases a 2 year anniversary like that)

2) Metroid revival - Samus wears red, would make fanboys cry

3) Miyamoto handing development of Star Fox over to Platinum

I think it's too early to see Bayonetta 3. I highly doubt a Wonderful 101 sequel is happening since that game sold badly and Nintendo barely marketed the thing at all. I don't think Platinum is making Devil May Cry 5.

This is reasonable, but I hope since they would be making Rising 2 from the ground up that it has more content this time around. I adore Rising, but compared to Bayo 1 & 2 and W101 it felt like lacking.

Honestly as long as it's on a console I own I don't care what PG does, it'll most likely be amazing.
 
Might add this tweet to increase the hype. Brian Altano from IGN tweeted this a few days ago:

I guess? I mean her most well known suit has red on it but its usually known for the orange.

Yeah but a tweet by someone from IGN mentioning orange in reference to Platinum's new announcement might be too much of a giveaway compared to red (which spawned Devil May Cry, Revengeance, W101 and Metroid ideas)
 
My guess is Star Fox. Nintendo has announced the game but we don't know who the co-developer is.

If the co-developer is Platinum, you could say that Star Fox is an unannounced Platinum game.

Nintendo Digital Event will be streamed on June 16 at 9am PT. Nintendo will show a Star Fox gameplay trailer and reveal the co-developer in the Digital Event but the first live gameplay will be shown six hours later on IGN's E3 2015 live show.

Why would starfox gameplay be on IGN six hours later and not treehouse? That wont happen. Although what you said first makes sense.
 
Wonder what Platinum comes up with if its something new. I'm all in either way but hopefully its something with mechs or super robots.

Everything could use a bit of that.

I don't think he's an asshole. I think he's an idiot.

I think he's just doing his job.

What if its MGR2 on WiiU featuring Samus Aran from the Metroid series?

1. Star Fox was already announced
2. Game play reveal will be during Digital Press Event
3. It's a Miyamoto / Nintendo EAD game, even with helpers assisting. (Unless you consider Bayonetta 2 a hexadrive game)

Wasn't Treehouse a multi-day event last year? I'd assume it'd be the same for this year. If it is a StarFox gameplay reveal it wouldn't be that off base if you consider they might have other(possibly unannounced) games they want to focus on for TreeHouse on Day 1. They could do a IGN reveal Day 1 and full blowout on Treehouse Day 2.

The first few pages of this thread make me sad. I didn't know so many people were unaware that Platinum used to be Clover. IGN actually knew their shit this time.

Anyway, all I can think of in terms of "seeing red" is Wonderful 102, and Kamiya's currently at work on Scalebound. I'm not sure how I'd feel about W101 without Kamiya, even though Bayo 2 turned out great without him.

In any case, HELL YES PLATINUM ANNOUNCEMENT I WANT IT TO BE NEXT WEEK RIGHT NOW
 
Hashimoto also retweets Suicide Squad, Assassin's Creed, Star Wars, and a heap of other stuff.

You guys gotta remember these are real people, not amalgamations of all things hype existing for one purpose. If you follow their twitters you'll find they have a tendency to tweet all kinds of shit based on their personal interests. Hashimoto clearly likes Nintendo stuff (he has several Splatoon retweets). He also likes DC related stuff. And Star Wars. And video games.

Don't read into it.

Shhh... I'm not a real person. I'm actually a robot.

I keep hope alive

This is
damage control

speaking of which, you would get less backlash if you told the platform for the game ahead of time that way the whole internet would not cry about it

Two Platinum titles, heavy hints of Soulcalibur 6 and Devil May Cry 5, and Dark Souls 3 is as good as confirmed.

And that's with us only know THIS much so far!
Add hopefully The Last Guardian and a confirmed 2015 date for Persona 5 and this will be an amazing E3.

It was made by Clover. Which later became Platinum.

So they're not exactly wrong.

Viewtiful Joe was made by Capcom. Viewtiful Joe 2 was made by Clover Studios. Platinum Games never made a Viewtiful Joe game. It's inaccurate to say otherwise, despite several leads transferring from one company to another.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
You know what that means! ;)

Hashimoto has even more retweets related to Suicide Squad and Assassin's Creed so this clearly means he is directing a Suicide Squad game based on the Assassin's Creed design template EXCLUSIVE to the NINTENDO NX GAME CONSOLE (x40 times the power of PS4 and only hardcore games for hardcore gamers).

He also likes Splatoon so factor that in somewhere.

As long as it's not another exclusive, I'll be happy.

Rising 2 would be fucking awesome but at this point I'll gladly take any Platinum game that's not exclusive to platform I don't own/want.

More Platinum goodness, sign me up!




No more Exclusives

Why? If a publisher is willing to fund a Platinum Game for their console who cares? Maybe if more third party Publishers like Konami, EA etc fund games from them there will be less Platinum exclusives.

Yeah I just saw your post earlier. I do wonder if Nintendo is aware of this assumption and would highly advise no-one who's worked with them recently/currently to retweet these things because of it unless it's legit? I dunno, you never know.

Me, I'll just label it as intriguing but no where near confirmed, if that.

Yeah as would I, though the idea of a Platinum led Star Fox would be great I'm doubtful this is the case here. I had my vote for MGR2 reveal this year but with all the crap going on at Konami im not even sure anymore.

I love how this gif is from our stream back in October. Legit wonder when we found that easter egg.
