In the latest issue of Famitsu, a number of developers shared their resolutions for 2014.
Hideki Kamiya’s was particularly noteworthy. In his resolution, Kamiya stated that “2014 will be the year where a new project will fully be set in motion.”
Here’s his resolution in full:
There’s a lot I hold dear in making games, but I think for developers, having fun is most important. The atmosphere of the workplace shows clearly in a game’s quality, so I want to treasure a team atmosphere where each member can have fun developing games. Also, 2014 will be the year where a new project will fully be set in motion. I want to boldly and happily walk that path without fear of failure.
Elsewhere in Famitsu’s feature, Masahiro Sakurai said: “I resolve to complete development on Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U and release it in 2014.”
Platinum Games creative producer tired of Bayonetta 2 port-begging
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 12 Comments
Ever since Bayonetta 2’s announcement, fans have been very vocal about the game’s Wii U exclusivity. Fans have continued to ask Platinum about bringing the game to other platforms despite the fact that Nintendo is responsible for publishing.
After hearing request after request, Platinum Games creative producer JP Kellams has said on Twitter that he’s tired of the port begging.
Kellams wrote:
I hate posting anything Bayonetta 2 on our Facebook. Not because I hate Bayonetta 2, but because I hate the pedantic port-begging.
— JP Kellams (@PG_jp) December 11, 2013
It's been over a year since we announced. We heard you. We get it. We are just happy that we get to make Bayonetta 2 for the patient fans.

Kamiya says porting Bayonetta 1 to Wii U in time for Bayonetta 2’s release would be doable
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 8 Comments
Update: Bumped to the top of the page. Kamiya also said the following earlier today:
For the ppl who haven't played Bayo1 yet but want to play Bayo2, I think it's good idea to release Bayo1 before Bayo2. I hope that'll happen
— ???? Hideki Kamiya (@PG_kamiya) November 22, 2013
Original: Hideki Kamiya wants to bring Bayonetta 1 to Wii U. The thing is, Nintendo would have to give their approval on such a project.
Let’s say Nintendo did sign off on a Wii U release of Bayonetta. Could Platinum Games prepare the title in time for the launch of Bayonetta 2? Apparently, this is doable.
Hideki Kamiya wrote on Twitter earlier today;
We can. RT @lightningboltac If Nintendo decided to release Bayo1 on WiiU, will u be able to port it in time before Bayo2's release? Or later

Thanks to LightningBoltAction for the tip.
