Truthfully, The Wonderful 101 is one of the main reasons I bought a Wii U. The PS4 launch info really bored me and turned me off to that system. I have no interest in Xbox systems. I had to decide to either skip this generation or buy a Wii U. I watched some video and thought The Wounderful 101 looked amazing and, most importantly, interesting. This current/last generation is the most disappointing time in gaming for me. Very few interesting titles were released, especially if you compare it to the PS2/GameCube era. I love Nintendo games and look forward to their releases but The Wonderful 101 was the tipping point.

I know what you mean. Wonderful 101 was the only Launch period game I was interested in, especially once Rayman Legends got delayed and went multiconsole. I'll probably get some other games I'll get once I get a Wii U, but W101 is definitely up near the top of my list, and certainly one of the first I'll play,

Need some details please

Hope Nintendo bring some new info about this game and Bayonetta soom.

This and Bayonetta 2 look awesome. It's pretty cool Nintendo is supporting Platinum Games.

Seems like a cool game. I'll buy it even if it's similar to pikmin

Ok. You can swipe different shapes on the touch-screen to switch between different formations that the heroes you've collected can change into; a gun for long distance, a fist for up close, and a sword. You can use "battery power" to use these attacks, but once you run out of battery, you must wait for it to charge, and use a low-powered attack until the battery is fully charged again. You also use the touch screen to circle nearby citizens, and have them join you. There are buildings that you enter, and a 3D section appears only on the GamePad and the TV says "look at the GamePad", and you have to solve a puzzle to unlock the other side to get through, then the action returns to the TV.

There was a time-limit, and once it is up, you go to a boss battle against some giant robot. However, the boss was also time-limited. The demo ended when the time limit for the boss was up.

You can die, but there were no lives, so you can just get up again right where you left off.

That sounds pretty awesome. Especially since I've heard no one complain about the controls.

Thanks and it sounds very interesting

im glad i looked in here.... that game looks amazing and i think i'll reserve it at gamestop this week

i think its awesome how platinum is doing something completely different from what they usually do and the fact that they are supporting the wiiu so much

The game's trailer is in the eShop under coming soon. Think we could be really close to release?

I sure hope so. This was reason #2 to buy a Wii U for me. I've always like Platinum and I hope this one is going to be succesful.
I haven't played it ye though.

HOw are the controls? One has to draw things to change shap, right? Does it work?

I just noticed this as well, along with Game & Wario

This game looks....Wonderful.
Really, this is what happens when Viewtiful Joe makes love to Pikmin.

Yeah, this game looks phenomenal.

What a Wonderful choice of words!

It looks like Platinum has another gem on their hands.

I'm crossing my fingers for an early May release.

An April release is actually very likely.

I hope we just get a date soon! It was suppose to be quarter 1 wasn't it?
