IMO this is the exact kind of game Wii U needs, this and Starfox could do really well this year.
I think Nintendo should have tried their hands at this kind of a game before, shooting, but none violent, colorful, with a cool art style, solid performance and some different gameplay tools like the roller, other strategic weapons like that paint shower, ability to disappear under the ink and recharge, it looks like a tonne of fun.
If I had money right now I'd buy a Wii U for this game.
Nintendo does need to market it, if they do then I think it will move hardware & being that it has that shooter element too it I think it could even come close to MK8 numbers.
The fact it's different for a Nintendo platform (having 3rd person shooter gameplay, with multiplayer and what seems like a Co-op) I think this could generate a new audience for Wii U, beyond the standard crowd that buys into their home platforms.
Does it lack voice chat? Has Nintendo put in a system to communicate, whilst protecting younger gamers from bullying?
