In an interview with GameSpot, Deus Ex and Epic Mickey designer Warren Spector weighed in on the Wii U’s struggles over the past few months.
Spector made note of his enthusiasm for Nintendo, and said that “you underestimate them at your peril.”
Spector stated:
“I’ve been pretty upfront about my enthusiasm for Nintendo. I think we need a company that’s dedicated to games. Every time I visit Nintendo, I’m relieved to have spent time in a place where you can just feel how much everyone loves games. And, really, how many times have people written Nintendo off? I think you underestimate them at your peril.”

Former Vigil creative director discusses Darksiders III ideas
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Wii U | 0 comments
Vigil had plenty of ideas for a third Darksiders game. Primarily, the team had kicked around the idea of making a four-player co-op game with all four Horsemen. Darksiders I and II let players take control of War and Death respectively.
Former Vigil creative director Joe Madureira told IGN:
“It was always our hope to do a full four-player co-op game, with all four Horsemen playable. It’s possible we could have pulled it off. I would have liked to introduce Fury and Strife. I know many fans feel robbed that they never got to play the last two Horsemen.”
