[Akhe]

I'd buy 10 copies with no regret.

 

[TwilightPrincess]

Metroid.

Metroid or Kid Icarus.

... Kid Icarus.

From Software would be a better fit for Metroid.

 

[AcademicSaucer]

Infinite Space 2

That's never happening, they would need to spend crazy money to make that game today.

 

[atr0cious]

Platinum with budget = hot
Platinum without budget (+TW101) = cold

W101 was their biggest budget game, and it's their best, so... More please.

 

[Calm Mind]

From Software would be a better fit for Metroid.

Please no! God no! Why would anyone want such a thing?

 

[Koppai]

Omg yasss

 

[LordOcidax]

I can feel the salt already in Gaf, this is going to be good. Nintendo + P again

 

[Usobuko]

Platinum getting more business is a good thing, especially so with Nintendo.

Quality assured.

 

[Dynomutt]

For real Gaf is too easy to please. The word "Platinum" and ears perk! Like a little kid and candy doesn't even always have to be good candy. Platinum got Gaf Kulshedra'd.

Spoiler

Please make Devastation #2

 

[jwk94]

That's on Capcom.

Yep and it sucks =/

 

[Megatron]

Metroid Rising Revengence!

 

[MDave]

Platinum working on a Megaman Legends game (in the style of Vanquish's gameplay) thanks to Capcom lending them the licence with Nintendo publishing it ...

Its a nice thought anyway

 

[Buggy Loop]

Clearly they are reusing the Scalebound work for Startropics

 

[lord_of_flood]

I'm guessing it'll be a new IP, but I'd also like a Bayonetta 3. I'd be very surprised if we got a Bayo 3 announcement anytime soon though; the way Inaba talked about it made it seem like it wasn't in actual development yet.

 

[QuixoticNeutral]

I'd be over the moon about Bayonetta 3 or W102, but in the absence of my number one dream request (a Bayonetta-like three-party deal for Platinum to bring Viewtiful Joe back and on Nintendo where he belongs), if we're in for a new IP I'd love to see the return of VJ-like side-scrolling character action. That's a design philosophy that I don't think was ever properly followed up by anyone, and we all know which studio is best placed to take it on. Much as I love Bayonetta and W101, there's a certain button-for-button precision on the 2D plane that 3D arenas fall short of replicating.

 

[Waji]

Infinite Space 2

I'd LOVE that ! Especially with some scenes and improved gameplay.
Story and atmosphere were great.

 

[AcademicSaucer]

I bet the Granblue Fantasy they are making is getting a Switch port

 

[thepenguin55]

They're going to fix Star Fox Zero guys!

 

[titiklabingapat]

Seems like a lot of Japanese games are now being announced or rumored to be on the Switch now, like many predicted.

That said, I'm asking for Okami and Viewtiful Joe sequels!!!

Spoiler

I know those are impossible but I can dream!

 

[DeuceGamer]

"Interesting" sounds good but doesn't give us much to go on. Wonder when we will hear more details and if it's the project that has a new director. We never did hear more about that project, right?

 

[Alter_Fridge]

Imagine pulling this off with the joycons

There's already a game about pulling off on the Switch

 

[ReitStuff]

are you sure you're not thinking of the guy who leaked it, who just thought it might've been by platinum from looking at it?

Maybe. It was in the 4chan leak right before the January event that was 100% correct. It said that ARMS was being developed by Platinum.

 

[10k]

The Wonderful 102 or Vanquish 2. These are serious guesses btw.

 

[DMONKUMA]

Yeah I'm definitely gonna make a bet we might hear something from them at E3.

 

[Neff]

Yeah, that totally worked last time they handed it off to a studio known for making character action games.

I agree!

 

[Hubble]

I would like a Wonderful 101 sequel. The game will fit the system well.

 

[jimmygnome9]

Hopefully by "interesting" they mean it will branch heavily from their Bayonetta template and try something more radical. I love Platinum's character action games but I want to see them develop something more experimental again, like with TW101.

Edit: I just realized I've been blocking Star Fox 0 from my mind.

 

[Principate]

Maybe. It was in the 4chan leak right before the January event that was 100% correct. It said that ARMS was being developed by Platinum.

The person who leaked it wasn't in the know so they thought it was made by platinum.

 

[Mr. Smiley]

finding a switch is hard enough platinum dont tempt me

 

[jmizzal]

I think it will be a new IP

and then they will do Bayonetta 3

 

[brinstar]

Maybe. It was in the 4chan leak right before the January event that was 100% correct. It said that ARMS was being developed by Platinum.

Nah that guy was just guessing by looking at the game.

Platinum with budget = hot
Platinum without budget (+TW101) = cold

Weird post for a multitude of reasons. TW101 had a higher budget than Bayonetta. It's also really good.

So is Transformers, which is very low budget.

 

[jts]

Man, the love for TW101 is fascinating and I own that game.

I ought to actually play it sometime.

Spoiler

I got turned off by the wackiness when I first tried it, never to boot it again since.

 

[Nostremitus]

In a perfect world we'll get a Sheik character action game.

 

[Wandering Robot]

Oh please let it be at E3
And let it be glorious

EDIT:

In a perfect world we'll get a Sheik character action game.

This is the announcement that would probably kill me

 

[PapaEmeritus]

Interesting.




Can't wait for more details

 

[mickagau33]

Yeah Metroid with maximum sluty Samus action

 

[Neiteio]

Man, today is TORTURE for Nintendo fans in terms of E3 hype

Fire Emblem Warriors info, Mario + Rabbids info, a potential Smash leak (even if it's fake, it gets me mad hype at the potential), and now THIS

Mind going delirious with visions of a Switch spinoff of Bayonetta starring Jeanne as a school teacher by day and an angel hunter by night

 

[Herbspiceguy]

Sounds like a fresh, new IP.
Hoping for a fresh, new IP.

 

[rokero]

Can it be, his time to shine?

plz god let it be this

 

[syncyes]

Infinite Space 2

I love Infinite Space, but weren't Nude Maker the primary developers for it, not Platinum?

 

[Twinguistics]

There's already a game about pulling off on the Switch

Underrated post. Well done sir.

 

[The perfect Dark]

Metal Gear Rising 2. Believe.
Konami just made a new Bomberman.

If it's Wonderful 202, I'll personally raid Nintendo for one of the Switches. Even if I have to fight Kimishima over it in a gloriously epic battle with many over the top summons and panty shots of us both... and trust me GAF you don't want those pantyshots!

Therefore it is better if we all just wend in a letter asking Kimishima to just send me one for the interest of the world's sensitive eyes. In case W202 does release.

[grandwizard]

Really loving all the Wonderful 101 love here. One of the best games ever made.

As much as I would love a sequel or some kind of continuation I do think it'd would be one of those games that feels so complete as to stand on it's own.

 

[RK128]

Likely referring to them working with another Nintendo IP (like Star Fox Zero on Wii U). But I could see them also working on No More Heroes 3 (the game has no developer currently an Platinum ARE great with action games) and Bayonetta 3 (Nintendo likely wants another one to happen, considering her increasingly being linked to as a Nintendo character).

 

[Neiteio]

Metal Gear Rising is Platinum's best game — BEST GAME — but I'm not sure it makes sense for it appear on Switch over the other two platforms.

Then again, Bayonetta made no sense, either. Loved it, tho!

 

[titiklabingapat]

What are chances of a W101 port to the Switch? I skipped the Wii U but that game looks like my jam.

 

[StereoVsn]

Would Wonderful 102 count as interesting?

No, it would be Wonderful 202, the doubling. Double the characters, double the moves, double the price!
