man if this turns out to be real then this makes me annoyed at Nintendo more than anything

they'll give all these other Wii U games a second chance at life on Switch but not TW101, even after all they and Platinum have done together? It never had a chance on the Wii U and doesn't deserve to be left to die there.

especially after they ported TOKYO FUCKING MIRAGE SESSIONS like where's the excuse for this then 

The excuse for TW101 is as simple as Platinum Games would be the studio designated to handle the port. However, Platinum Games has had their hands full with the Switch titles Bayonetta 1+2, Astral Chain and Bayonetta 3, all of which should understandably take priority over TW101.

While they do certainly have other things that take priority, I feel like it's different if they have go to to kickstarter for this, assuming this comes true. That would mean Nintendo would have had to sell the rights to them or at least agree to this, which more likely means they outright just don't care for it anymore rather than "hey, just finish these things first then you can do a port later". Them doing a kickstarter for this port would still have to be developed by them so it would still be taking resources anyway, so it ultimately doesn't even change anything aside from Nintendo's involvement. 

So perhaps me saying no excuse is a bit hyperbole, but it does just seem strange.
