>generic

Bitch go watch Zetman and say that again.

generic art style? I'm more interesting in the churayzee gameplay mixed with shootan and if this game is good, it proves the fact that kamiya has no fucking clue how to make games

>>16119307

>Zetman

oh shit, he did the character designs. I take it back.

>>16119324

I will grant you the "style" is pretty standard, but the designs more than make up for it.

>>16119310

>if this game is good, it proves the fact that kamiya has no fucking clue how to make games

What did he mean by this?

>>16119340

Finally this will prove Manlet Tears right.

Not gonna lie, this looks solid. It is a bit strange how much it looks like xenoblade without Monolithsoft's involvement, but heh.

>>16119331

>>16119340

>got his game axed by microsoft probably for reasons like a giant crab is fucking stupid and the gameplay sucks

>bayonetta 2 is considered dumbed down compared to bayonetta 1

>bayonetta 1 isn't as good as devil may cry and has retarded shit

>okami is gay

>god hand and devil may cry 1 is his peak fucking work, you could add in resident evil 1 but everyone keeps jerking off to the remakes more than the actual original resident evil

he's not even the director of astral chains you stupid morons

>>16119350

I'll give it to you that God Hand is bretty gud, but the first DMC has crust that hasn't aged well. You're welcome to your opinion, but as soon as you play the wrong-think card, your words are invalid.

>>16119354

VERY toku indeed, like holy shit. Excuse me if I liken your "advent" to a Jojo stand, but I can't imagine describing it as anything else in the mind set of a time before Jojo.

>>16119347

Maybe the sci fi look in XCX was more of Nintendo's doing than Monolith. Or maybe they have Monolith helping with the game? If this had some sort of open world aspect to it with some crazy pg gameplay it'd be pretty fucking cool. I know some of Monolith soft is working on a new fantasy RPG, but I wonder what happened to the BOTW Monolith soft people. I'm probably just being optimistic though, having XCX's exploration without Treehouse poz and a really good battle system would be amazing.

Either way looking at the names working on this game, it's clear Nintendo is working on making a new IP. But seeing this art and music really makes me wish Nintendo still had Perfect Dark.

>>16119340

>>16119331

This guy shits up every thread where Kamiya is mentioned. Don't bother replying.

>>16119404

I never implied that.

In fact I'm mad at Toei's treatment of Patoranger. Why even make a dueling Sentai, if you give all the attention to one side?

>>16119410

I'm still getting caught up with sentai and ultraman, but I've heard that has been a major issue with patoranger vs lupinranger which is a real shame considering the premise is really neat and the suit designs are top tier.

>>16119297

Yeah it looks alright

>on the switch

Let me know when I can emulate it.

>>16119354

Are they supposed to be brother and sister?

>>16119462

No, just the gender options for which one you'll play.

Man, I’m thankful DMC5 is coming out when it is and is as good as it is. It’ll make waiting for this a breeze.

>>16119307

>>16119328

Why the fuck did he have to main the main character of this game look like the MC of Zetman?

I understand that the guy looks cool but hes not THAT cool.

I remember binge reading Zetman back when I was in the 6th or 7th grade and I went to school the next day literally shaking in shock. Good times.

Oh and I also said this in the direct thread and I'll say it here too.

This game is pretty much "True Bizarre XenoCrime AdventureBlade Chronicles"

I'm not gonna compare it to any crazy because they are pretty much all their own thing.

Can't wait to pirate this once it comes out

>>16119350

Anon Kamiya didn't even make most of those games he directed

>Resident Evil 2

>Devil May Cry

>Viewtiful Joe

>Okami

>Bayonetta

>Wonderful 101

Resident Evil 1 and God Hand were made by Shinji Mikami not Kamiya.

>>16119359

Was double decker any good?

>>16120482

Haven't seen it yet.

Game looks good, I've wanted a buddy cop action game for at least 4 years, although this is not how I would have handled it, it still looks fucking great.

Trailer has dick all views, so I'm guessing the game itself won't sell well, I'm going to buy it day one but I don't really expect any success, Nintendo and Plat are doomed to failure, Plat should stick with SE/Sony, that's where their games sell, even when they are inferior.

>>16119409

>be bought out or face bankruptcy

>with nintendo backing them

I'm sure Plat would arrange deal to have Nintendo either bail them out or buy them in the case that any company attempted to force them into a buyout, Nintendo have multiple titles being developed by Platinum at any given time, only real problem is that those games never sell.

>>16119297

>looks like hack n' slash vidya fans are gonna have a solid year.

Yea, I'm definitely looking forward to it. I like the enemy designs and Platinum has never disappointed me.

>>16119354

>TIME TO D-D-DUELL

>>16119355

DMC1 is a good game, there's nothing wrong with the game other than the underwater sections kamiya likes to shove in god awful sections to an otherwise a well crafted game.

>>16119771

>Resident Evil 2

>newfags are actually forgetting about the resident evil 1 remake, both the gamecube remake and the hd remaster remake on multiple platforms

This is some fucking hitman 2 bullshit

>>16120561

Sit back down.

The Ark: A massive, prosperous, multicultural city. But disaster strikes when mysterious dimensional gates appear, bringing dangerous alien creatures to the Ark to attack the people and corrupt the land. The Ark police form a special task force, known as Neuron, to face the alien threat head-on.

Humanity’s last chance against invasion is a special living weapon called the Legion. As a rookie Neuron officer, you and your Legion will work together to solve cases and save humankind.

ASTRAL CHAIN gives you full control over two characters at once for thrilling Synergetic Action, courtesy of PlatinumGames. Switch between several Legion types and skills to save the world your way.

ASTRAL CHAIN features character designs by the acclaimed mangaka Masakazu Katsura (ZETMAN, Video Girl Ai), and marks the directorial debut of PlatinumGames’ Takahisa Taura (designer of NieR:Automata). Hideki Kamiya, director of Bayonetta and writer/supervisor of Bayonetta 2, provides supervision.

This game is dead in the water, having players be able to control two characters at once is a great optional feature, and gives the game natural co-op, but forcing them is going to outright kill the game, core gamers will absolutely abhor the core gameplay system.

Game is published by Nintendo, kind of surprised that it's coming out this year.

>>16119373

> If this had some sort of open world aspect to it with some crazy pg gameplay it'd be pretty fucking cool.

It does.

> I wonder what happened to the BOTW Monolith soft people

Hopefully back at Monolithsoft so that they don't have to make their next game with a skeleton crew again. Nintendo probably has them helping out with several games though.

>>16119462

>>16119468

Which ever one you don't play becomes the younger twin.

>Switch

There goes my interest.

>>16120606

>This game is dead in the water, having players be able to control two characters at once is a great optional feature, and gives the game natural co-op, but forcing them is going to outright kill the game, core gamers will absolutely abhor the core gameplay system.

Like how you were able to control a small army of people in Wonderful 101? Okay dude.

>>16120782

Right? It doesn't deserve to be on a platform that's intentionally limited in hardware, so that it stays cheap. I'd rather it be on my $599.99 USD blu-ray player, that was the end product of two whole generations without a good library. Or heck, I could have it on my monstrous computer, which cost me $1999.99 USD to build! I'm so proud of myself.

Eat a dick.

>>16120806

I think your sarcasm meter is broken m8

>>16120806

You mean like the Switch?

>>16120787

Calm down Nintendrone.

>>16119355

well it's a f'n old school resident evil-game that they remade in the last minute, what did you expect?

>>16120861

Can I call you a Nintendon't schill for using a character as a reaction image??

Looks great but I wish there was some young characters and sexy girls with sexy outfits. All characters being old hags is boring.

>>16122336

They're cops, anon.

>>16120784

You didn't control each Centinel seperately you controlled your Wonder Liner and your main character, and the Wonder Liner was an extenstion of your main character, it was drawn relative to your main characters position, the linked character in Astral Chain, is a separate character that can be controlled separately, laying out combos as a single character is going to be very hard, this is bordering on Star Fox Zero territory, but the problem with that is that was like driving while texting.

>>16120806

Good thing it's on the Switch then.

>twin protagonists that call their lines in sync

>free open world mixed with action gameplay

>cyerpunk setting

>high skill ceiling allowing players to set up mad combos with their buddy

>platinum quality combat system

>great visual design

>multiple legions to choose from

>chain that links your buddy has multiple uses

>legions with out of combat value

>crime solving

Game looks great overall, let's hope it plays well too.

>>16122345

>the partner is even called a legion

>>16122425

I'm not seeing it.

>>16122480

The only thing that worries me at the moment is that at no point do we see combat with more than one enemy at a time. This could be good or bad depending on how difficult the enemy is, but hopefully there are some small groups to do combos in.

>>16122496

It more Nier Automata than Bayonetta, there's a scene where two small enemies chase the player on a bike, I think theres a strong possibility that there are smaller enemies, but nothing definitive, wait for the inevitable gameplay demo, it comes out in lik

>>16122547

It's on the website, they are called legions, and they are many…. as in you can change between them.

>studio comprised priimarily of ex capcom developers

>taking inspiration from a capcom game

I don't know, it looks more like it folds multiple games and their elements together, in a good way, all the angles are good so far too. The only thing that's driving people wild is that it's for Switch.

>>16122584

>in lik

In like 6 months.

The deciding factor will be how much ass and tiddies there are. There needs to be a load of ass and tiddies for /v/ to like it even if it's sub-par trash (looking at you automata)

>>16122646

>Automata was only popular because of 2B meme

It's really funny because she's in less than half the game.

>>16122646

That's just the factor for core success, it's going to another W101 if it's good, it will sell poorly but a small group of people will swear by it. I don't see this game achieving any real success, maybe 200k lifetime sales, Plat don't do well on Nintendo platforms.

>>16119297

looks like a crappy slower monster hunter clone

>>16122833

I'm assuming anyone acting this ass blasted over nothing is baiting, but in case some people don't know some of the benefits of using an alternative front-end to judetube:

>lightweight

>conveniently downloadable videos

>no JS

>no ads

>no official yt APIs and other google spyware

>>16120606

>having players be able to control two characters at once is a great optional feature, and gives the game natural co-op, but forcing them is going to outright kill the game

Doesn't look like you have full control over both characters at once, more like you directly control one and are able to use some assist moves from the other character

>>16119297

One thing confuses me though, is it linear or a sandbox?

>>16122957

The website says full control, but looking further it may be a hybrid, not sure now, hybrid with the option for full control would be perfect.

>As part of a police special task force, it’s up to you to fight against mysterious, alien-like creatures who have invaded the world.

>In the Ark, a multi-cultural city in the near future, disaster strikes when gates to another dimension suddenly appear! Dangerous creatures begin to emerge, attacking the people and polluting the land, and normal police forces are unable to compete with them. To stand up against these threats, a brand new, special police unit known as Neuron is formed.

>Choose between two playable characters – one male, one female – on your adventure. The character you don’t choose also appears as your younger twin, and a fellow member of Neuron.

>In order to resist the creatures, humanity developed a special weapon: the Legion. The Legion acts as your partner, and helps with your investigations. However, it’s in battle where the Legion shows its real ability…

>Work together with the Legion and use all sorts of combat styles to fight your enemies. You could both attack the same enemy simultaneously, target different opponents, or send your Legion on the offensive while you support it with items. Use this synergetic action system to battle and explore together!

Hideki Kamiya, creator of the Bayonetta™ series, is in charge of supervision. The character design is by manga artist Masakazu Katsura, creator of ZETMAN and Video Girl Ai.

>>16122977

Looks open.

>>16123002

Like Witcher 3 "open" or Grand Theft Auto "open". there's a difference

>>16123002

Also something I'd like to add is that Star Fox Zero was Nintendo focing the gamepad gimmick. The game itself was very well made, it was just both extremely overpriced and was forced to be gimmicky.

>>16122584

>>16123033

Actually, now that I think about it, it might not only be a successor to Chaos Legion but maybe also a bit inspired by Prey 2's trailers.

>>16123033

>You mean how the Witcher 3 is a bunch of separate hubs and how GTA is just a single location where you are free to go anywhere

Yeah basically, I mean if it really is a sandbox like GTA then it'll be a very interesting game. Especially since this would be Platinum's first sandbox game. Anything on parkour and the movement mechanics? I assume the robot also transforms into a motorcycle, which would be the primary vehicle of the game. Even so I feel this would be a perfect opportunity to have a Prototype like movement system where characters run across buildings, glide across the city, etc. I know some anon from the cuhrayzee general wanted to make a game like that back in the day, I wonder whatever happened to him.

>>16119350

>got his game axed by microsoft

i'm sure it had absolutelly nothing to do with M$ tryting to shoehorn online multyplayer and forcing the dev team to change the planed qt3,14 loli MC for the most generic dudebrodouchebag they could design

>bayonetta 2 is considered dumbed down

how so? i was disapointed by the lack of witty dialog with the bosses but as far as gameplay is concerned it's as churrayzee as it's ever been

>bayonetta 1 isn't as good as devil may cry

same combat mechanics but with more attacks weapons and moves to combine, i fail to se how it's not an improvement over the DMC formula

>okami is gay

not nearly as gay as (you)

>god hand and devil may cry 1

both of these were made by his Mentor Shinji Mikami

The guy looks like Caim from Drakengard.

>>16120548

>Plat should stick with SE/Sony

And have Soyny censor 2B's big butt?

gas yourself, SOyny is dying and the Switch looks more and more like THE only console worth getting in the comming gen

every single nip dev is jumping ship from Soyny and everyone can see where the wind is blowing

as things stand now, the Switch is the only console that has Sistem Seller games in it's library

i don't hear anyone talking about Dad of Boi now the Soyny stopped funneling shekkels into the artifitial hype machine but Splatoon, Smash Bross and even Zelda still pop up in conversations every now and then

say what you will about those games, you may like them or not, but you can't deny that each and every one of them sells more consoles than God of Soy ever could

>>16123049

Does kind of look a bit like Prey 2 now that you mention it, it looks like it's using the best elements of multiple games, when I first saw it I thought that it was a stupidly early trailer for Xenoblade X 2 and they just implemented Blades into X

>>16123052

The info they have given mentions that Legions are used to explore, I would think they would be smart enough to implement a Legion that allows vertical movement.

>>16123066

MC was fine, people just don't get Kamiya's character design for some reason, which is actually immaculate, and more well thought out than an overwhelming majority of characters in video games because it leverages the unique nature of video games.

>>16123083

Nintendo's and Plats relationship won't last, Plats games don't sell on Nintendo platforms, Bayonetta 2 sold combined less than 700k units, less than 300k on WiiU and less than 400k on Switch.

It's just the unfortunate reality of the situation, just look at Nier Automata, an inferior game with more sales than the entire Bayonetta series as a whole, and more sales than all Plats Nintendo games.

>>16123098

hold it right there nigga

i remeber Bayo 1, the enemies who were on fire could only be harmed during witch time, and i remeber them being particularly anoying when they got paired with golden enemies that were inmune to witch time

>>16123115

>Bayonetta 2 sold combined less than 700k units

it first came out for a shit console that nobody bought (WiiU) and when it was ported to a more succesfull console it was an old game, most people are only interested in the new and shinny stuff, i doubt Bayo 2 hasn't sold any new units after all this time, but i say this asuming the numbers you showed me are from the launch of the game in both console and not the overall sales of the game since it's launch

there's also the fact that people who liked churrayzee games got themselves a PS3/4 cos that's where they expected the next churrayzee action game to come out, by now, most of those people should have learned that no more churrayze vidya will ever come out for a Soyny console

>>16123115

Nintendo will keep funding Platinum games as long as it keeps getting them attention. This and Bayonetta 3 was funded based on those 700k after all.

>>16123152

Are you retarded or something?

>>16123191

M$ needed ANYTHING that would get people to buy the Xbone, an exclussive Platinum game would have mooved consoles no matter how shitty it turned out

they axed it becos they were retards. They got Kamiya but instead of letting him do his thing they kept sticking their nose into his busines and fucked up the whole project beyond repair

>>16123139

The WiiU sales were final, Switch sales were a while after launch period

PS4 has more cuhrayzee games than Nintendo platforms, Platinum still have that one published By SE coming this year as well.

I'm doubtful that Bayonetta or Astral Chain will sell well at all.

>>16123145

Bayonetta 3 was funded on the sub 300k unit sales of the WiiU version, Nintendo obviously decided to fund it in spite of it's financial failure. It's a tactic that will pay off eventually, since diversifying the lineup and eventually fanbase of Nintendo consoles will be a major win for Nintendo in the long run. But I feel that Nintendo don't really see it that way, since they have cut relationships with developers who had worked towards diversifying their lineups in the past, Noise being one example.

>>16123269

There are rumors of Noise making a comeback, since they've tripled their workforce. Although a better example would be Camelot where they're just forced to make Mario Tennis rather than any other games.

Looks like JoJo with TECHNOLOGY.

>>16120739

>Which ever one you don't play becomes the younger twin.

muh dick!

>>16123284

>noise making a comeback

With what though, there's already that Custom Robo spiritual succesor being made by some of the original developers, I would definitely like to see Noise come back and make something good but I strongly doubt this.

Camelot aren't owned by Nintendo, Camelot make Mario Tennis because the studio leads are over making games and just want money.

>>16123269

>S4 has more cuhrayzee games than Nintendo platforms

i call bullshit on this

if they actually had churrayzee game in the library it wouldn't be so hard for people to come up with a list of at least 5 "must own" vidya

all they have is infamous, Blood Borne, Dad of Boi, and Uncharted, none of them are churrayzee

>>16123353

It's easy to find a list of 5 must have vidya for PS4, especially if you are a Kusony fan, but PS4 has more cuhrayzee than Nintendo, if you include ports it still wins.

>>16123145

I thought one of the big deals about Platinum was that they were really good at making games on a tight budget. Platinum isn't huge, it's not like they need to sell a million copies to have a financial success.

>>16123294

Don't you mean Tiger & Bunny x Psycho-Pass since the one designing the characters did Tiger & Bunny. I remember Masakazu Katsura from manga like I"s, Shadow Lady and Zetman. Doesn't seem like he's doing much in manga anymore which is a shame.

>>16123374

Probably there due to the wish for a CUHRAYZEE Evil Dead game.

What I wanna know is why the SMT characters are there. I mean Demifiend I can understand, but why the fuck are Raidou Kuzunoa and Door-Kun there?

>>16123366

>It's easy to find a list of 5 must have vidya for PS4

<doesn't post it

>PS4 has more cuhrayzee than Nintendo

>without including ports or multyplats

post em faggot

i ain't asking for much, just post them, you say it easy to find at least 5 churrayzee games on the PS4 and i call bullshit on that statement

so come on anon, proove me wrong, make me eat my post

>>16123459

PS4 must haves are subjective and I don't play walkie talkies.

PS4 does have more cuhrayzee than Nintendo, let's compare.

>yakuza 6

>yakuza kiwami 2

>judgement

>fist of the north star lost paradise

>bloodborne

I'm sure a Kusony fan could easily put together a list of must haves that would look like this

>uncharted 4

>uncharted lost legacy

>nu god of war

>horizon zero dawn

>spiderman

>devil may cry 5

>babylon's fall

>nier automata

<that one mae by one guy using canned assets in unreal engine

>transformers devastation

<granblue fantasy re:link

<project awakening

<bayonetta 3

<astral beads

>bayonetta 2

That's 3 exclusives for PS4, 2 exclusives for Switch, and there's 2 games that I just can't remember, japanese stylish action games for PS4 only, I can't remember them, so I won't count them.

Kind of bugs me that humanoid Legions are pretty much Warframes. I hope we will get a good Switch emulator soon.

>>16123596

>Yakuza series

point taken but all of them are coming to PC and the Fist of the North Star yakuza game won't be far behind, no idea what what judgment is and i wouldn't clasify BloodBorne as churrayze, certainly faster and more stylish than Darksouls but still way to slow for the Churrayzee genere

>the second lis of 5

i hope you are cleaning your fingers and keyboard with bleach after typing those names anon, all of them are shit

>DMC5

it's on PC

>Babylon's fall

saw only one cinematic trailer for it and no gameplay, i'm gonna need more than that to clasify it as churrayzee

>Nier Tomato

it's on PC

>Transformers Fevastation

it's on PC

<pink text games

i had forgotten about those

Ok, anon you win, there's definetly some churraizees in there, i just don't even bother counting multiplats becos i alrready have a killer PC and when i think of buying a console, i think of all the games i wouldn't be able to play otherwise, and Nintendo has more of those than Soyny

>>16123637

You actual freemium soy BITCH.

Warframe did not invent the strange organic bodysuit archetype. That shit is older than videogames, end yourself.

>>16123673

> but all of them are coming to PC

Only the cross gen ones came to PC, That Yakuza guy, who I've forgotten his name is a big Playstation fan.

Did you not see that the second list of 5 was what a Kusony fan would call must have?

Even if those games are on PC, the important things here are that they are not on Switch, and overwhelmingly they sold on PS4, exclusive doesn't actually matter since the game being on that platform and working is enough to call that platform one where those games are, exclusives are just extra for that platform and further solidify it's position, and realistically the Switch itself has a minor selection of these games, roughly 2 so far with 2 more coming, pretty weak, even though I am personally interested in those 2 games more than what else is coming to other platforms.

>>16123596

shadow of the beast, gravity rush 2, sakuna, mitsurugi kamui hikae, croixleur sigma, phantom breaker overdrive and odinsphere all fill those roles of action games with good combat.

>>16123818

Hopefully all of them.

>>16123830

Just pointing out that the PS4 is the better place to play action games because there are more on it, and that's actually the only reason for this. It's this gens biggest console and has the most support by a wide margin, when a company decides to make a game PS4 is never taken into consideration it's just a given

>>16123369

That is true.

>>16123859

Yep, don't disagree with you. It's the default and it's fortunately a competent default.

>>16123884

> and it's fortunately a competent default.

Recent censorship disagrees with this.

>>16123906

Don't really care much, talking about hardware specs.

>>16123915

In that case it's better than the competition.

>>16123830

>sakuna

That isn't even out yet, and it's on PC as well.

>mitsurugi kamui hikae

complete dogshit, also on pc

>croixleur sigma

decent, takes 15 minutes to beat, also on pc. Really not a stylish action game, just a beat em up.

>odin sphere

remake of an old emulatable game, also on the ps3 which WASN'T a dumpster fire console. Still not CUHRAYZEE.

>phantom breaker overdrive

PS4 port of a game that's been on PC for longer, phantom breaker battlegrounds.

>shadow of the beast

Only game on this list I've never heard of, looks mediocre

>gravity rush

The only reason I might ever buy a PS4.

And if you're going with such a loose definition of action game with good combat, the switch has the actually good new monster hunter. Which is closer to a CUHRAYZEE game than half the games you listed because of hunter arts. I don't think you actually know what sub-genre the OP's game is in.

>>16120562

Kamiya did not make REmake either what in the fuck are you talking about?

>>16123269

There would also be the increased sales of Bayonetta 2 reprint post Smash Bros DLC Bayonetta release.

>>16123818

Wouldn't they be admitting the monsters are niggers then? Even then the cops don't have guns.

>>16124671

Those are the final WiiU sales, if it sold more after the reprint that just means that it's original sales were extremely disappointing.

>>16124690

Every Platinum game has been a sales disaster I think only Nier and MGR broke a million. Though most Japanese games tend to be made expecting smaller sales. Like Dragon's Crown sold I think 700k and Vanillaware were ecstatic it was their best-selling game by a wide-margin.

>>16124731

The fact that Platinum is still around after complete sales bombs like Anarchy Reigns means that these "low" sales are just fine for their A/AA size. People are too used to stupid AAA companies like Capcom needing millions of sales to break even.

>>16124757

Didn't Sega screw them over somehow with Anarchy Reigns' release?

>>16124731

I'm aware of this, but even Bayonetta sold more than 1.5 million and it failed to meet sales expectations. Games have lost money and still got sequels before too, here's hoping that Nintendo have a plan this time, it would be good to see Bayonetta 3 to be profitable and for Nintendo to see further investment in Platinum games.

>>16124757

>The fact that Platinum is still around after complete sales bombs like Anarchy Reigns means that these "low" sales are just fine for their A/AA size

Maybe, hopefully, here's the problem though, eventually Sega gave up on them, even though their games low sales may have been sustainable.

>>16124758

This game comes out late August.

Game looks great but like the Tranformers game already showing a lot of signs of just directly importing that Bayo feel and just copypaste it on here. They seem to do that a lot with their lesser titles.

I haven't seen enough of the game so maybe it's more differentiated.

They screwed over everyone with it, the game was out in Japan and completely done with localization and ready to release in America and they pushed back the release date by like 9 fucking months so the playerbase for an already niche game was even more fractured.

The netcode was kinda shit on top of everything else too.

Was there ever a statement as to why they did this? Lacking any kind of context that sounds like outright fucking sabotage.

I think Nintendo's plan is to make a game that a niche crowd wants to play they do not expect it to sell extremely well. However giving Platinum money to make games makes people who actually play video games happy. It builds up goodwill and will probably at least break even because Platinum are so cost-effective. Or maybe they saw how well Nier did and think Platinum can pull in some good sales now.

Could they have gotten some extra ongoing money from the PC releases of Bayo, Vanquish, etc?

Surprised AR doesn't have a PC version already.

Nintendo must see potential in Platinum for making stylish, hardcore, action and sometimes M rated games that Nintendo doesn't make. Even after their co-development assistance with the poorly received Star Fox Zero and the better received but forgotten bundled spin off Star Fox Guard resulted in another more (deservedly so) poorly selling titles, (on top of the better received Bayo1/2 and the mixed W101 having low sales) Nintendo still continues to work with them.

>>It looks generic

>>but it was made by [Japanese name]

>>I take that back it looks fantastic

most of the rustic buildings, sound effects and visual effects are from their previous game. I just wanted a vanquish 2 is that just too much to ask for in this day and age?

Would hold hands with female twin. She a QT.

When piracy is inevitably available, it might be good.

Until then, it is shit.
