Ya, another 3rd party game exclusive could land on Nintendo systems that'll cause a bigger ripple than Bayonetta 2. Some say that it could be The Devil's Third a game that the now dead THO had. Could they be funding it a la Bayonetta 2? Is it really the 3rd party game that could be announced for the WiiU soon. Heh, who knows.
Though then again it could be a rumor.......

"huh" is my response for now.

On one hand, RANDOM RUMOR GUYZ. On the other hand this one is actually believable.

So... A third party game exclusive for Wii U is coming in 2014 and its supposed to be similar to Bayonetta 2? Awesome. I hope its good. This isn't that surprising because I expect Nintendo to team up with more Japanese developers to make exclusive games for Wii U.

I own a Wii U and 3DS. I also own a PS4!

Also, I can't imagine "The Devil's Third" causing a stir as big as Bayonetta.

Hmm to cause a stir I guess it would have to be a long awaited sequel perhaps.

Shenmue 3?
Some other cult classic of that type.

I'd be worried if it was bs, Nintendo need to be working on gaining exclusive third party games, or just any third party games in general really.

Causing a 'bigger ripple' wouldn't be difficult seeing as it was completely justified with Bayonetta 2 (since without Nintendo it wouldn't be happening).

No More Heroes 3, please?

Devil Third looks extremely uninteresting.

Looking forward to: No More Heroes: Travis Strikes Again

A family oriented company like Nintendo wouldn't want to be associated with The Devil anyway... also I highly doubt that they would make a pact with Three of them

If it were to cause bigger controversy than Bayonetta 2 it has to be something huge, not a game that never came out because THQ vanished.

It doesn't say bigger than Bayonetta. It says something along the lines of "not as heavy (as the Bayonetta reaction), but still a big deal.". According to twitter interactions others have had with this guy he as said the game is a new ip somehow similar to Bayonetta, being published by Nintendo, and he constantly references blood.

Who knows what the legitimacy is, but The Devil's Third makes so much sense. It's been floundering without a publisher and is close to finished on an engine that has already been ported to Wii U. Itagaki has previously expressed his desire to get the game on Wii U and he has coincidentally come out of the woodwork to proclaim his excitement at the progress and declaring 2014 is the year he focuses on releasing it. These guys would jump at the opportunity to be funded by Nintendo considering the dire circumstances. Plus, Nintendo has shown the leniency to let developers breath and express their ideas. There is no drawback.

For its part, Nintendo needs games and they need them now. They could use more than one Bayonetta-style game to build a market and generate cross-interest. The Devil's Third is an online-focused game and the Wii U could do with more of those to establish an online base. (Keep in mind that beyond MK8 and SSB4, X looks to likely incorporate a significant online component.) It's likely a relatively small investment to pick up a game that can fill gaps and help boost an specific section of the market that has been traditionally lost. (That they are publishing Bayonetta 2 means they are going after and need these gamers.)

Likely or not, it makes a lot of sense for both sides.

I can't see Devil's Third as the kind of game Nintendo would publish, but then again I never thought they would go after Bayonetta either.

If Half-Life 3 becomes a Wii U exclusive, I would give 24 hours before Nintendo’s HQ in Kyoto is burned to the ground by an angry mob of western gamers.

and I give 15 minutes after the western gamers start their attack for japan call their stealth mobile suit assassin squad to deal with the enemy while they cut off all communications and energy with the excuse of a solar flare interference and also eliminating all non-japanese witnesses so the mobile suits won't be discovered by the outside world
or the western gamers will make a petition because it's a drag to waste money, time and energy just to go to japan destroy some company that they wrongly assume to be doomed

Fair enough, I've seen enough Armored Core games to know it's in the realm of possibility, but holy @#$%, I can't imagine the hate Nintendo would get if Half-Life 3 became a Nintendo exclusive. PC gamers are even more devoted and insular than their console counterparts.
