It will be delayed… but then again I sure hope it is not F5 who are developing it!

Very sad news. They made some great games in the past.

The really bad news is that things are likely to get even worse for a lot of development studios after the holidays are over.

Yea i think Nintendo will let the company die, or they will buy it or finish the dev. on KI and publish next yr



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

What's the point buying a studio if all the great programmer in that company moves elsewhere?

Release shite, and the end result shall be shite for you as well.

 



Conversely, this shows just how farsighted Nintendo was with their business strategy. Those guys from gametrailers were just plain stupid to think Nintendo was thinking short term, when Nintendo is thriving among all these closures.

And since they are thriving, make the damn studio a second party, Nintendo.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

It'd be nice if this was true, but there are some major exceptions...For example, the makers of

would take serious issue with that blanket statement.
