Nintendo 

 

Currently i dont know anything about nintendo, so if anyone could give me something that would be great. 

Nico Wav, the guy who broke the Devil's Third and Pokemon OR/AS leaks last year says:

-3 unnanounced 3rd party projects for WiiU similar to Devil's Third, in the sense that Nintendo pulled these projects from the brink of being cancelled and made them WiiU exclusive

 

Is this a good tactic by Nintendo? There is a reason projects head towards cancellation, and that's because there are major problems with the project. It would be rare, I think, for a game that looks for all money like it will be a major hit to head towards cancellation and oblivion for lack of investor interest. So if Nintendo is spending cash on projects that might only amount to mediocre 3rd party games to pad out the Wii U exclusive library it may end up being bad for Nintendo, in a financial sense. Not all of these almost cancelled projects are going to be underappreciated gems like Bayonetta. And of course Bayonetta was an existing IP and therefore a known quantity and thus a more predictable risk.

If Nintendo can buy itself some quality 3rd party exclusive titles from the discard pile of 3rd party publishers then that will be great. But it is a risky approach.
