All together? Gotcha! Still, Nintendo hardly gets any bonuses why not just 1 from this game? MS/Sony have it all the time! Besides Fans want it, the devs want it. Better to have something than nothing :0

If the devs want it more power to them but I don't see that being the case.  I think they know if the Wii U version gets any meaningful exclusive content the other gamers are gonna be like wtf?!  So I see the DLC being available on all versions of the game, unless Nintendo makes it worth their while to make it exclsuive, which I don't see Nintendo doing.


Shovel Knight: Sony gets Kratos, MS gets BattleToads. PC+Nintedo owners didnt go wtf!

Just sayin!

Quiery, what percentage of Kickstarter funding do you thing is gonna come from Nintendo gamers? For my money, I'd say 85% or more.

And you don't think Nintendo fans feel like this every. single. day?

There's a difference between pissing off the majority vs the minority.

How is it 85%, if you fund the game you get a PC version of the game.  Its mostly all PC gamers atm.

Edit: Nvm checked it you can get the console version.

By looking at the rewards you can tell its not 85% all the ppl putting down $10/20/35 are pretty much PC gamers.  Even if you go higher those are probably PC gamers too unless console owners really want those T-shirts.

The more expensive console or PC tier has sold 1,000 more. Everything above that gives you the choice.

Read my edit.  There's no reason for console owners to buy some of the options like the $20 one.

So... about those Amiibos we were talking about...

I think it would be a fantastic idea, and would be a big point of interest for the increasingly growing market. Obviously Nintendo is seeing big success and big profits, and it'd be wise for 3rd parties to partner up to provide greater incentive for customers to 1. buy that product on a Nintendo system and 2. buy an additional piece of the experience through Amiibo.

I still remember when Rayman Legends was first unveiled, and how they showed different NFC figurines. I know hindsight is 20/20, but they missed a huge opportunity with that. I think Playtonic would be wise to create some Yooka-Laylee figurines for fans to collect and enjoy.

Except for a love of Banjo Kazooie leading them to want to give as much as they can. I gave 50 euro purely because of that. Its why I suspect Nintendo gamers will give most of the money.

I don't see many people doing that, the rewards are there to entice people.  Like the $70 has more ppl than the $55 one because the reward gets really good at the $70 mark.

Edit: nvm that makes no sense because the $70 mark includes all the ppl donating for the rewards above $70.

Edit2: Wait nvm looks like it doesn't.
