I honestly don't much trust that tweet. Either NoA saw the disappointment and has decided to hold onto the IP in NA, or Siliconera which has been trustworthy for a good long while was fed inaccurate information from what is usually a very trustworthy source (as they reached out for verification, they didn't simply trust the Unseen64 report). As it stands, none of NoA's actions reflect the content of that tweet. They haven't gotten the game rated by the ESRB, they pulled it from the future releases section of the Wii U eshop, they didn't show the game at E3 in any way, shape, or form, they haven't given the game a release date, and now they choose to say "oh, uh, yeah, it's still on the way, totally".

Be less contradictory NoA.

Less contradictory?

Is the people that makes movies on their heads for any simple rumour, Noa said that the game was coming and... wow is coming

What a contradiction

I enjoy the fact that you read more than the last line of my post. Oh wait. You can't honestly believe that NoA's silence, silent actions, and the fact that information was verified that indicated NoA was not publishing the game in NoA is all just a sad coincidence. My money is on Nintendo still trying to take credit simply because they funneled money into the game to finish development, that or just a miscommunication with the PR person. I mean, technically, even if they pass the buck to a different publisher, Nintendo themselves still brought the game at least halfway, so perhaps they just feel entitled to take some credit. There's a few explanations that can be given that still line up well with all the other information we already have.

Oh well looks like this got debunked.

Fake as hell! NofA is saying exactly, to the tee, what NINTENDO haters said about this game. Yeah sure!

Looking at how hush they are and how little Nintendo has shown us about this game as well as the developers themselves its probably all true.


Nintendo is always hush on everything and thanks to Twitter, this article is fake like I said it was. See original post

Be less contradictory NoA.

Siliconera also said that MK8 and Bayonetta 2 would be 1080p :|

I've been saying for awhile now that if Nintendo begins developing or publishing "mature content" games then they need a wholly-owned subsidiary that can operate as an alternative publishing wing.  That would keep the name "Nintendo" clean while allowing them to publish whatever they wanted.  Kind of like how Disney wouldn't publish adult content but they owned Miramax, which did publish adult content.  The Nintendo brand itself could remain "family friendly" and they could still bring any stray Devil's Third type games over.

Exactly.  Tons of movie studios do this.  There is no reason video game publishers couldn't do the same.

Or NOA could just realize that one game is not going to wreck whatever image they are trying to cultivate.

Well we'll know in six days if the quality reasoning and this video are true. If the game is in as poor a condition as this video suggests, it should wind up critically panned and poorly received by users.

Funny thing is this thread already shows that Nintendo is in a no win situation if the quality problems are true. If they do publish this and it's garbage, Nintendo will catch flack for pushing a garbage game. If they don't publish it, they catch flack for holding back a game. Me? If it's garbage it shouldn't be published *anywhere*. When your library is small, quality ratio is all you got.


Finally someone making sense.
