Support NeoGAF

Ok. I'm not big into making threads, but this game is my most anticipated Wii U title of the year and I want everybody to know more about it. It's Platinum on a nintendo system doing whatever it is they want (or are contractually obligated to do), which ended up being a culmination of Viewtiful Joe and Pikmin, going by the videos.

It is not a strategy game. It is a high-octane-shrivel-the-hairs-on-your-balls action game. The type that Platinum is known for. Unfortunately the first reveal of the game was poorly received, but I think it looks to be the strongest title the Wii U has to offer. Here's some media to inform you about this glorious bastard child of a game (You know nothing neogaf).

Release date is September 15.

Edit: I will continue to update the op as I find or receive new media. Always check this thread. ALWAYS.
Edit 2: the more gifs the better guys! Put them up and they'll be in here!
Edit 3: Added new gifs, characters and Kamiya confirmed the game will be about 20 hours long.

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!

I forgot I never gif'd the rest of the character intros. So here they are:

and of course Wonder eyes Pink

Characters:

There have been 4 main superheroes revealed. Their names are simple to remember. There is:

Confirmed
Wonder eyes Red (Viewtiful Joe look-a-like)
Wonder eyes Blue (DMC reject)
Wonder eyes Green (Hansel)
Wonder eyes Pink (chibi bayonetta)

Educated guesses based off of the boxart:
Wonder eyes white
wonder eyes black
wonder eyes yellow

FAN ART:
If you guys have miiverse drawings (or any other medium really) of the game, Link me and I'll put them up.

TLDR:The game is 60 fps. It's all action. 20 hours long. There's 5 player Multiplayer. Hideki Kamiya's at the helm. This is the game you've always wanted, you just weren't aware of it yet. There will be a dedicated Nintendo Direct for this game before it comes out, so you should watch that too. Spread the <3.

All of my love.

I also love spamming this gif.

Why does this not come out till Sept. in America. Why!

 

[Instro]

My most hyped game coming this year honestly, across all platforms. It looks like a blast.

 

[StreetsAhead]

Quick someone make a graphics comparison to show how it's improved since last year!

I cannot. fucking. wait. for this game.

 

[joe2187]

The second best thing I would buy a Wii U for

The number one being Bayo2

 

[rikichi]

I'm in love

 

[Riposte]

This is a lock for one of my favorite games in the year. I can't imagine it disappointing, but I guess the possibility is there. It is high energy, unique, and really catches my eye. I can only hope the combat mechanics are up to par.

Yes, it is being overlooked, but then again so was Anarchy Reigns.

 

[DeuceGamer]

Agree it looks amazing and my most anticipated Wii U title this year. Love the art style, quirkiness, and action. I hope it's a financial success but fear it will be one of those titles that are overlooked by the majority.

 

[FrostuTheNinja]

Yeah, it's probably my most hyped upcoming release as well. Looks fun!

 

[Cbajd5]

YOU SWITCH THAT BOXART IMAGE RIGHT NOW

IT'S LIKE THE WORST QUALITY ONE OUT THERE

Also this image is pretty cool and like ridiculously HQ and big and 8 MB.

 

[devious.one]

Hoping to scoop up a Wii U before this comes out.

Still a little concerned about longevity/re-playability though. Anyone able to quell my worries?

 

[JDSN]

GOTY

 

[fly high ~ayunite~]

Game looks great, love the whole saturday morning cartoon feel.

 

[SloaneRisette]

If Kamiya isn't heavily featured on the Wonderful 101 Direct I'll be incredibly disappointed.

It's a Hideki Kamiya game. Worries completely gone.

I am here to proclaim my love.

 

[Christberg]

RAD TITTY.

 

[NotoriousPUG]

Yep the game looks awesome. I don't know a ton about it, but hopefully it plays as fun as it looks.

 

[ThisOne]

Looks like a lot of fun. Will definitely buy it, if and when I get a Wii U.

 

[olimpia84]

This looks beautiful. I hope it does relatively well.

 

[guek]

YES YES YES YES

This game, man. THIS GAME. When I got tired of the guns and cars during E3, the thought of this game on the horizon is what cheered me up.

 

[CrisKre]

I can confirm this plays amazingly crazy. As you would expect.
<3 Kamiya.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

It looks great.

I mean, really great. This is a day one purchase for me, I don't care how long it is.

It's just a shame it's not coming out until September.

 

[Air]

YOU SWITCH THAT BOXART IMAGE RIGHT NOW

Done and done!

 

[Soulstar]

This game looks so good. Every time I see it I'm sad that I'm not playing it now.

 

[Kamek]

Fucking September :'( I remember when this was first shown, I said to myself, "I'll pick that one up release day of Wii U." I bought a Wii U day one and the only game I have is NSMB

 

[Poimandres]

Yep, really great unique looking game. Just pray it sells well!

 

[Cbajd5]

Done and done!

GOOD

Now someone get the links for the actual 60 FPS trailers.

Because I don't have those on hand, and the one I downloaded for the latest trailer from Platinum's website yesterday wasn't 60 FPS according to the properties.

 

[Castleman]

I was a day 1 person on November 18th. Now I am just an annoyed day 1 person

 

[LiveFromKyoto]

LOVE.

This game is so day one.

 

[AlphaStriker]

I think this game is getting dangerously overlooked, we must spread the love!

 

[fredrancour]

Will be one of the first games I get when I eventually have this system

 

[jet1911]

My september money goes toward GTAV but I will buy this game later. It looks really fucking good.

 

[Air]

Yep, really great unique looking game. Just pray it sells well!

That's why I made the thread! Gotta spread the love.

 

[CrisKre]

This game needs you more. You know it.

 

[guek]

I think this game is getting dangerously overlooked, we must spread the love!

Sadly I can't see it selling too well :-(

Such a shame. Not sure what could be done to possible avoid such a fate.

 

[Mileena]

this looks great, I hope it does well for Kamiya

 

[RobertC]

I have a wee (no pun intended) interest in this...will support it to see more games like this brought over

I´m still replaying Viewtiful Joe.

Still spreading the gospel of cyberdragon bitchslapping

Good on you.

 

[javac]

I've got a feeling this is going to be my favourite game of the whole year by far. Looks soo good and it's fucking Platinum Games and Kamiya for crying out loud.

 

[SatoAilDarko]

My most anticipated game with X. Its exactly the type if game I didn't think I would ever see on home consoles.

 

[El Odio]

Just noticed that the robo-things hands are controllers, awesome. I definitely plan on picking this up when I get a Wii-U later this year. The whole toylike action story thing is just fantastic.

 

[watershed]

I love the way this game looks. If I were gonna get a Wii U this would be my most anticipated game. It just looks fun as all hell.

 

[JaseMath]

This is probably the only Wii U game I'll buy this year. Hope it's good.

 

[Smellycat]

Looks great, but they need to fix that loading time...

 

[jmizzal]

Its looks great would def get it

 

[vareon]

I actually planned to buy this game before even I have a Wii U.

It...looks great on the shelf, you know!

 

[xXBetter Off DadXx]

This and Bayonetta 2 have me eyeing an eventual WiiU purchase.......

 

[Air]

Updated the OP with the gifs, and the Hi-res screenshot. If anybody can find the 60 fps trailer, link it and I'll put it in the OP.
