Yes, he did. It's almost a different game.

Then drop the Wii U version price to $40 and offer all three at the price point of $40.

I'd like to pick it up now, but too many games to watch out for my DS backlog.

I'd pick up the Wii U version some time soon thanks to that Wii version pack-in...

It's NIS America.  They make the majority of their profit from selling games to a small niche of gamers who will buy things for full price.

They're not going to do something like that, it makes no business sense.

I know, but if they took the time to finish the version on the original console, I don't see why they couldn't make at least a limited Wii run. 

I think the Wii version has been finished for years, just for whatever reason Kadokawa decided to take their time to port the 3DS version to WiiU in order to sell the game.

Doesn't make any sense to me either.  And it seems it was a terrible decision because the game absolutely cratered in Japan.  But it is what it is!

Noo....

Lets be honest, the game doesnt look great no matter the system its in. Its obviously no Nights.

I don't get why they changed the game for the Wii U though.

Damn, I forgot NIS America took over for this for a bit. It's a damned shame that XSEED wasn't able to secure the rights.

And the 3DS version was probably ported to the Wii U because...GamePad! That still pisses me off.

Naka, how about you go back to SEGA and help them make good Sonic games again! You can even ditch Rodea and make a REAL Nights game.



Cloudman on 10 November 2015

Hmm, maybe I should get the game right away so I can get the Wii version.

Btw, Naka did NOT work on Wii U/3DS versions. Kadokawas own internal team did those.

You need to be caught up.

This was announced in 2010 as Wii game by Naka and his team. They finished it, but by the time they did Wii was dead so Kadokawa just held onto to gam. Naka was asked to do new versions, he said no because thats not how he intended it to played so Kadokawa did it themselves.
