According to those very credits, roughly 75 people worked on Captain Toad. Wasn't expecting that many, they just delayed their next big proyect even more. 


Mario Galaxy 3 is probably well underway (or whatever would be the equivalent of that). 

I think it will be a launch window title for the 4DS/Fusion platform for 2016. 

Nah, Holiday 2016 I bet. For WiiU, 4 years for WiiU is too short.

No offence but I don't think internally Nintendo gives two sh*ts about what Wii U fans really think. They are giving the platform a lot of support, moreso than many other consoles that have sold that poorly. 

The Wii U will probably get a Mario Galaxy 1/2 compilation in HD and that's plenty of Mario for what is Nintendo's worst selling console. Even the Wii only got two EAD Tokyo games (SMG 1 + 2), the Wii U already has 3D World and Captain Toad, I don't think a third is coming. NSMBU + NSLU + Mario Maker too. 

The company's future literally IMO hangs on the 4DS/Fusion launch ... if they struggle with that again out of the gate, I think Iwata is going to get voted out by shareholders. 3DS and Wii U both suffered from bad launches, Nintendo is not stupid enough to allow it to happen again. 

EAD Tokyo is their best studio, they will be on the frontlines when Nintendo goes to war in what probably will be their most decisive battle, not twiddling their thumbs making games for the Wii U as it lies on its deathbed. 

Captain Toad is IMO EAD Tokyo's send off to the Wii U, enjoy it.
