Nyamyam unsure about making a Wii U exclusive given the risk

Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 3 Comments

Tengami creator Nyamyam was asked by one fan on Twitter today if the studio would ever consider making a Wii U exclusive. Nyamyam pointed out that making games exclusive to the platform is “risky” at this point, and the company would need “to see how the platform develops.”

@GoldMetalSonic It is very risky to do a Wii U exclusive at this point. Would have to see how the platform develops.

@GoldMetalSonic I guess it would depend on whether the development costs were completely covered up front.
— Nyamyam (@nyamyamgames) December 30, 2014

As for future Wii U support in general, it sounds like Nyamyam would be open to making additional titles in the future. The studio “would love to make games” for the Nintendo community, which “is super fun.”

@GoldMetalSonic It is not all that bad. The Nintendo community is super fun. I would love to make games for them.
