Kamiya again comments on Bayonetta 2’s initially troubled fate and how Nintendo saved the game
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 89 Comments
Last week on Twitter, Platinum Games’ Hideki Kamiya commented further on the development of Bayonetta 2. As has been said before, the game was in a very troubled state before Nintendo stepped in.
Kamiya noted in his tweets that Bayonetta 2’s problems came about when it was initially with SEGA. Something happened when the project was in the works there, and development halted. The game was pitched to various publishers, though it seems that most declined picking up Bayonetta 2. However, Nintendo agreed to step in and development was only then able to proceed.
Head past the break for a full translation of Kamiya’s tweets. They’re quite interesting, even if some of the tidbits had been shared previously!

Armikrog due out for Wii U in early 2015
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment
In a Kickstarter email sent out to backers, Pencil Test Studios confirmed that Armikrog is slated for an early 2015 release on Wii U.
The developer noted that this version will offer “some cool features specific to this platform”, though “some extra time” is required to add them in. Specifics have not been shared at this time.
Pencil Test Studios’ full message states:
A quick update to let you all know that we’re still knee-deep in clay, working towards getting the game done. Things are moving quickly here, and while there’s still a lot to do, we’ve decided that we can all sleep AFTER the game is released. We’re still targeting the release of the PC, Mac and Linux versions for the end of this year–but we’ve also started to nail down our release schedule for the WiiU version as well (hoo-ray!). The WiiU will have some cool features specific to this platform that we’ll need some extra time to complete–so the official word is that Armikrog for the WiiU will be released in early 2015.
