Amazing if true.

More than this, they should have a bundle for each of the hardcore exclusives they will have.



I love you BOTH.
Ok, now I need just ONE additional little think to declare it (before playing it!!!!) my GOTY: a Wonderful Joe character. How brilliant would that be!?!?!?

I'm aboard day one. Game looks so full of energy and life, just like Bayo 2. i just love Platinum's enthusiasm, it's really infectious!

The Red hero is already just that. Blue is Vergil, Pink is Bayonetta, and the Green fat one with a gun is obviously Kamiya's vision of an american.

That would be wonderful. If not that, I would settle for a cameo.

Added this to OP.
 
This is the game I bought my Wii U for. Monster Hunter just happened to come out to keep me busy until this release lol.

The only thing better than this game, will be the Iwata Asks with Kamiya about this game.
 
What in the hell is wrong with NoA!? Push this game out day and date with Euro! At least offer it digitally and let the retail one release in September if anything.

HA HA you are right! ;D
But I'd like to see the red guy wear an helment, at a certain point ;p

Wastes hours checking old Famitsu software data, but that's why we love him.
I think Nintendo is planning on promoting it in Japan.

NOA....ehhh

You guys made a TW101 love thread and didn't invite me? ;_;

So, so, so fucking hyped for this. It's one of the coolest new IPs I've ever seen going into the new gen. In Kamiya and Platinum I trust.

I drew this for the Smash Bros Miiverse. I'm praying to god that they get represented in Smash. It's the perfect addition; the IP technically belongs to Nintendo, Sakurai is great friends with Kamiya and they'd fit wonderfully into the atmosphere. Make it happen!

~quotes first The Wonderful 101 reveal from this board~

It was embarrassing the reactions and spoke volumes on how some people think.

The reveal thread for this game was so depressing. So many people were saying: "THIS is Kamiya's game?!" as if it wasn't good enough.

Let's relieve that gem of a thread: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=477028
Altough, I must admit, "looks like Line Attack Heroes" was my first reaction too...

I love you BOTH.

Going by the naming convention, that would be Wonder Red-Hot :p

The Red hero is already just that. Blue is Vergil, Pink is Bayonetta, and the Green fat one with a gun is obviously Kamiya's vision of an american.

Nah, Blue is definitely Dante and the green guy sounds German.

Cannot wait to get this. One of the games that made me want to get a Wii U before it was even released. Even better, it's coming out almost a week before my b-day.

Seriously hope we get a demo for this. I want to try this so much.

Damn, that thread is worse than I remember it being!

Do we know what the batteries under the health bar in the HUD do? I saw one of them deplete when the player dodged an attack and I wasn't sure what else they were used for.

They remind me a LOT of Viewtiful Joe's VFX gauge. And it seems to be used a lot for all of the "special" things you can do.
 

Skiesofwonder

Walruses, camels, bears, rabbits, tigers and badgers.
This is like the crazy-ass spiritual successor to Viewtiful Joe that I didn't know I wanted until I actually saw it in person!

Hopefully we get a demo announcement from The Wonderful 101 from Direct. I'm been dying to get my hands on it ever since I missed the opportunity to play it at the WiiU Experience last year.

If this bombs I lose what little faith I have left in Wii U userbase after they ignored MH.

I'm not one for buying HD editions of games I have already played. I skipped the Team Ico collection and will be most likely be skipping Windwaker HD even though those are some of my favorite games of all-time. I imagine others are the same.

I think my favourite thing about this game is that when you use the gun, the bullets are other heroes. That's amazing.

y'all already know, unappreciated gem. Nintendo is dumb not to be pushing the fuck out of this game, but that's Ninty for ya.

As I said in another thread, I'll probably buy 10 copies and sell them for cheaper than retail on the Buy/Sell/Trade thread to help support this game. I'll make sure to put a note that I'd prefer to only sell to people who are on the fence about the title. Turn some "maybes" into "for sures." Platinum has my full support. One of the best studios in the business. I hope their partnership with Nintendo is successful.

Can't wait to have it in my hands. I hope Ninty releases a demo, I think it could really help the title move a lot more units that way.

On the far left, Famicom/NES Pad man!!!!

Looks like that might be the same guy on the cover that's playing the DK Game & Watch/3DS hybrid. Wonder what his powers will be.

Seeing that & the Famicom controller really make me want to see what other gaming references they threw in.

It looks pretty sweet.

Kamiya has a good sense of style. I will probably give a shot when I get a Wii U later this year.
 
PLEASE GOD let this game sell well. It looks so damn fun, and I feel like if it does well Nintendo will grant Based Kamiya with the Star Fox franchise he desperately wants to resurrect. NINTENDO YOU BETTER FUCKING ADVERTISE THIS GAME

How did you play MH3U before the HD version? Japan? Also the Wii U version was full featured, unlike the gimpy 3DS one ;)

This game will receive the same marketing budget and attention as Bayonetta 2 from Nintendo. I fear the thing is people are just not interested in it. Take a look at Nintendo channel, IGN's etc.

I think it will be a stretch if this game will even reach 1/2 of B2 sales and B2 has an uphill task to be commercially successful on Wii U.

I will advertise it on Miiverse.

Until I get banned for spamming.

If anyone wants to get a social media campaign going, I'd gladly join in and contribute. I'd have to figure out what I'd do prize wise though. I don't think giving away copies of the game would be good because chances are if people see the tweets, they're already buying the game... Any ideas? I'll probably have some money to burn when this comes out. I want this title to succeed :)

Yeah, if there's some kind of contest, I'm willing to give a copy away as well. Even if it ends up here in GAF, I don't care, I want this title to succeed too.

I'd be down for something like that. Would just have to figure out how to go about it.

I see Wonder-eyes Yellow on the box art. Why wasn't he in the trailer?!?

Probably saving the reveal for another video.

Just wanted to join the chorus and confess my love for this game. This game is the penicillin to the infection of same-y looking realistic games, both from a visual and gameplay standpoint. Cannot wait.
