i'm just excited to see platinum games finally being multiplatform again
like I own a switch and a ps4 so it hasn't bothered me particularly, but it's still cool to see nonetheless

I'm really happy for Platinum but at the same time I'm worried that multiplatform will mean everything sans Switch because of hardware limitations. Hope I'm wrong.
Everyone who didn't buy The Wonderful 101 should be sent to the gulag.
I don't even care if you didn't own a Wii U. You failed humanity.

Give the people Wonderful 101 2
And new ips and all that
Edit: yeah anyone who didn't buy a Wii U to play w101 sure as shit don't deserve a port so I'm PRAYING that doesn't happen

The Wonderful 101 being ported to anything except Switch would be strange since that'd imply they bought the rights back from Nintendo. I get that they're bullish about making the revival happen but I don't think even Platinum would waste their capital to drag the IP out of that stranglehold when it has the most extreme of niche appeal. At best I suspect Nintendo will just let them port it to Switch, while the multi-platform strategy remains original IP.
excited to see what they have in store. hopefully they don't forget about switch when it comes to their multiplat titles.
Isn't The Wonderful 101 IP owned by Nintendo?
Also where does that rumor comes from that P* is working on a port?

Tencent has invested a lot in marketing Switch in China so there's a good chance the new game will come to Switch too.
It may happen, but none of the games P* released this gen is too much to handle for the Switch.
Platinum have wanted to port the game to Switch for a long time now and have basically been using social media to try drum up support for it but Nintendo's never been interested, so instead they've been trying to scout external partners and publishers to absolutely no avail. The thinking is that if Platinum now has the capital to self publish then they're likely able to put out a port by themselves, at least on Nintendo platforms.
Platinum themselves said it was something that was going to move the genre forward and that it had never been done before.
I'm not greedy. I just need Wonderful 101 at 1080p/60 fps with no touchscreen stuff. Thats it, Kamiya.
If it allowed Platinum to buy back rights to all their original IP from Sega (Bayonetta, Vanquish, Madworld/AR, Infinite Space) and Nintendo (Astral Chain, The Wonderful 101) I think I could even stomach a Tencent acquisition. Even dreamier in this dream scenario; throw in the old Clover stuff from Capcom (Viewtiful Joe, Okami, God Hand).
Square Enix can keep Babylon's Flop though.
i wouldn't be surprised if they bought out nintendo's share of w101 so they can port the game to multiple platforms. having said that, i can't imagine the port would do well on any of those platforms. i hope they don't have very high expectations.
Third person action card game... which is basically Phantom Dust... actually yeah Platinum make an action card game.
