Platinum Games has worked on several projects in the past, but Bayonetta 2 marks the studio’s first sequel. Although this does bring about a certain amount of pressure, producer Atsushi Inaba says he and the rest of his team “welcome the challenge to outdo the first one.”

As reported in the September 2013 issue of GamesMaster:

“Come to think about it, this is the first sequel that we’re working on. And we’re happy to have the opportunity to make any game, but… we welcome the challenge to outdo the first one.”

Bayonetta 2 will be out on Wii U sometime next year.

Thanks to joclo for the tip.

Just a short while ago, Nintendo published its 2013 annual report. It’s mostly filled with a lot of pretty pictures (find them above, because they’re neat) and sales data, but it also features a message from president Satoru Iwata.

Iwata reiterated Nintendo’s “basic strategy” relating to “the expansion of the gaming population, which is to encourage as many people in the world as possible, regardless of age, gender or gaming experience, to embrace and enjoy playing video games.”

Later in his message, Iwata commented on Nintendo’s financial situation. For the fiscal year ending March 31, 2014, he hopes that the company will be able to once again achieve “Nintendo-like” profits. Nintendo intends to continue creating “brand-new and unique proposals, and make efforts for the growth of the home entertainment industry with a mission that is to pleasantly surprise people and put smiles on the faces of everyone Nintendo touches.”

You can find Iwata’s full note below.

Young Justice: Legacy is coming out in September – that is, on non-Nintendo platforms (and PC).

We heard about a delay for the Wii U, Wii, and 3DS versions back in June. Now the news had been made official, and with a new tentative release window.

It did initially seem like a launch would be coming in 2014, but as it turns out, it’s only a two month delay. The official Young Justice: Legacy Facebook page notes:

The Nintendo versions will have the same story from Brandon and Greg and will be using the same art, but will have their own combat style to take advantage of their unique controls. We’ll be showing off some screenshots soon.

However development is running a little behind, so the official release date has been pushed back to November this year. We sincerely apologize for the delay. We appreciate how patient fans of the show have been.
