Project P-100 (Nintendo/Platinum Games) announced for WiiU [Director: Hideki Kamiya]

Holy crap this is by far the kiddiest offering Nintendo has ever had.

Nintendo is seriously misjudging the marketing, they are screwed....

1. It's not "by far" the kiddiest thing ever on a Nintendo console.

2. Here we go again with "all games should be for me the 20 something gamer".

People do realize even if Nintendo entices more core properties onto Wii U, that it's not going to be the dudebro console? It's still going to have a range of games, right?
 
Did we not watch the same trailer?

it looks like pikmin or little king story, but your minions turn into weapons and shit and you go all DMC on dudes.

Looking pretty damn interesting

I like what I see. Wish they would have shown this rather than Nintendoland for 15 minutes.

Well Nintendo has cemented yet another generation appealing to the 4-14 crowd, casuals and the fanboys who used to love them when they were 4-14 - despite once again claiming to want to grow a more mature audience.

Three of the launch window titles are a zombie game, Assassin's Creed, and Batman. Don't try to pull the "b-b-b-b-but they're ignoring mature gamers!" card yet.

Eh... look like a game I guess.

I still don't know why they wouldn't show this during the conference, but instead spent 20 minutes on a Pac Man-like minigame.

Nah. It's the Platinum Games cycle. Everything they make turns out to be fucking awesome but gets a lot of skepticism when it's initially unveiled. I have confidence that it'll be a good game.

I still hope Kamiya's doing something other than this, though.
I would think I'm immune to it since I own 2 PG games (Bayonetta and Vanquish) and will buy 2 more (Revengeance, Anarchy Reigns). I wanted a system seller. This does not appear to be system seller.

Someone needs to make a Platinum Games cycle image.

You know what this could have used? Someone explaining what it was. At some kind of... I don't know... press event. One where third party developers... would be welcome? Just a fucking thought.

Ok, JP and another PG guy are on Gametrailers. I guess that's kind of okay. :|

I'm so confused as to what Platinum Games is doing nowadays. Considering how early it looks I wouldn't be surprised if they picked this up right after the Sega deal(s) fell through

Wastes hours checking old Famitsu software data, but that's why we love him.
Kind of getting a Little King's Story type vibe from the combat.

Kamiya directing? Okay, scratch that, this IS what Platinum Games has been working on since Bayonetta 2 was cancelled. A quick rough project to keep themselves in business.
