This week’s issue of Famitsu has an interview with Devil’s Third creator Tomonobu Itagaki.

To start off, Itagaki spoke about Nintendo. He believes that the company loves games more than anyone and they love to play. Itagaki feels that working with Nintendo on Devil’s Third is a huge opportunity.

On the topic of Devil’s Third using special elements on Wii U, Itagaki teased:

“It is our policy to make full use of the hardware’s characteristics. I’m currently thinking along the lines of having something other than having you press down on the Wii U GamePad, and something that will make you say, ‘Oh, I see!’”
