Kotaku has published a very interesting and insightful article about the working relationship between the folks at Next Level Games and Nintendo. The two companies needed to come together for the development of Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon.
We’ve picked out a bunch of quotes below, but be sure to read the full piece here. Topics include Next Level not knowing which system it would be making Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon for initially, 3D and multiplayer experiments with the original GameCube title, Nintendo’s rules for Luigi, why the character can’t jump in the Luigi’s Mansion games, and more.
Youkai Watch has a slightly more specific launch date. Level-5 confirmed today that the new 3DS title is due out this summer. The company didn’t announce a final day for release, but should have more information to share with fans soon.
As it turns out, Yacht Club Games will likely be bringing its first game to Nintendo platforms.
We found out last night that the studio is working on the 8-bit NES-like project called “Shovel Knight”. While Yacht Club initially didn’t seem ready to announce that the game would be coming to a Nintendo system, the company has since confirmed that it is hoping to release the game on both Wii U and 3DS, through the eShop.
Along with the Wii U and 3DS, Yacht Club Games will be bringing Shovel Knight to the PC.
Unfortunately, the newly revealed Saints Row 4 won’t be heading to Wii U. Publisher Deep Silver confirmed to Joystiq that the company has no intentions of bringing the game to Nintendo’s console. If you’re interested in the next Saints Row, you’ll need to pick it up on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, or PC.
