Sweet response. Still didnt answer the question of whether it is coming to the west or not. Still with cloak and daggers crap. Just come out and tell us what the hell is going on.

Realplaya3874d ago

How can you no know it's coming from that response. What in the response made you feel it wasn't coming?

PlatinumGX3874d ago

It was stated they are indeed bringing the game. I just want to know when.

freshslicepizza3874d ago

it was answered by nintendo of america so that should tell you it's coming to the west.

"We know you are eager to hear more about Devil’s Third. We are excited to bring the game to Wii U and will have more to share soon."

A dedicated Nintnedo Direct perhaps?

MikleDemi3874d ago

Is anyone actually still interested in this game? The last few videos I saw were disappointing.

I'll still probably get it since its an exclusive that won't be playable anywhere else, but it looks kind of bland, uninspiring, and well.... Hate to say it.... Not that graphically impressive.

AJBACK2FRAG3873d ago

lol!!!!!! It's the game I'm craving the most!!!!!

TuxedoMoon3874d ago

I WAS excited for Devil's third since I was eager to play something close to Ninja Gaiden 1-2. But now that I see the game, it really looks...old. It still looks the same as it did during it's first reveal and that's not a good thing.

I heard rumblings that this game was pretty glitchy and boring. That the game was indeed in development hell and nintendo kinda forced it from the dead. Nintendo doesn't have that much confidence in the end result of the game (or at least NoA doesn't), so they don't want to be the ones publishing it in the west.

morganfell3874d ago

Well for some people it is too little too late. This is the last Nintendo pure thread in which I will post because the black Wii U I purchased last year is boxed and leaving shortly to be traded in. I am done with their stupidity, lack of support, indecisiveness, and general malaise attitude.

marloc_x3874d ago

Might I suggest you hang on until January? You may regret it ;)

morganfell3874d ago (Edited 3874d ago )

Really? January? That must be when Nintendo really starts supportying the console after how long?

You can suggest but nope. Done and done. Besides, coming next year the WiiU really goes in the dump as Nintendo starts focusing on the NX. They can lie all they want about continued support but look what they have been doing. Nothing. Now that will become half of nothing.

Maybay3874d ago (Edited 3874d ago )

What type of genres (or games) are you into?

There's; Fatal Frame 4, Xenoblade X, Rodea sky solider, SMT x Fire Emblem, Star Fox Zero, and Mario Maker coming. Can't forget about Shin'en and their title - Fast Racing Neo.

Have you tried ZombiU, and Bayonetta 1/2? What about Mario K 8, Metroid Prime Trilogy, Monster Hunter 3 HD,Smash Bros. (with Ryu DLC), and splatoon? (titles with great amounts of replayability)?

You're probably a multi console/and or PC owner, but there's a few 3rd party multi plats on the Wii U. Like; Deus X, Mass Effect 3, @ss creed 3 & 4, and the retro sports titles (they play well, and FIFA soccer Wii U has an active online community).

It's your opinion in the end, so I wish you the best.

17M+ units in 6 months! Others on this site are insisting on only 10M units. XD

And as for Switch 1 total sales, it will only take a few months for it to surpass the 160M of PS2.

repsahj15d ago

Will Sony magically be able to dig up PS2s again to increase the 160M number when the Switch is about to surpass it? hahaha.

They already did this in 2024 because Switch 1 is getting close to 155m. They might do it again because Switch is getting close to 160M.

Dexterio15d ago (Edited 15d ago )

"And as for Switch 1 total sales, it will only take a few months for it to surpass the 160M of PS2."
Few months lol. Maybe in a few years, and if it happens, that would be a big indication that the Switch 2 is not as successful as some here wanted us to believe; people still buy the OG Switch because there is nothing exciting on the Switch 2 and it's cheaper lol.

Rage7715d ago

Too bad it took over 12 years for PS2 to reach that number (before Jim Ryan made took some more out of his ass) Does that mean people were buying PS2s becasue it was cheaper and nothing good on PS3 and almost PS4? Nice try. 🤣🤣🤣

Sgt_Slaughter15d ago

The Switch 2 is outselling the Switch 1 when compared to their first years. You can swing this anyway you want, but that doesn't change reality and sales figures.

By your own logic, every single console has released to lackluster success because people kept buying the console before it. Sony even combined PS2 and PS3 sales at one point to help negate the lackluster start of the PS3.

badz14914d ago

@Rage77

people were buying PS2s because it was cheaper and nothing good on PS3. remember that the PS3 was released in 2006, God of War 2 was released in 2007.

Destiny108015d ago

it was at 10 million when i googled it a week ago, these are fresh numbers

17 million in 6 months is crazy

repsahj15d ago

I think that number is until October only. And during the holidays, Switch 2 sold 7m+.

salis84415d ago

June 5 to December 31 is essentially seven months.

From the chart in the actual presentation.

"Cumulative global sell-through as of the 4th week of December 2025 15 million units."

"Sales Status of Hardware and Software (Sell-In) 17.37 million units."

15m Sold = sell-through

17.37m Shipped = sell-in

andy8515d ago

Itll probably get there. But at currently pace it's like a year and a half. And thats without that number declining as people get switch 2s instead

repsahj15d ago

Maybe they still can. They need to put extra effort into promotions again and release bundled promos like with
2-3 games and 1yr Nintendo online subs.

Profchaos14d ago (Edited 14d ago )

There's a lot of people who want the switch to fail for some weird reason

They took Christmas sales as a indication that the system was a flip and proceeded to celebrate prematurely

I still believe the Switch 2 is not gonna be as successful as the OG Switch. We'll see ;)

darthv7215d ago

Well... it can't be the new wiiu if it already passed it and is on track to keep selling over the next several years. It took WiiU 4 years to even get close to 14m. SW2 passed it in 6 months.

Sgt_Slaughter15d ago (Edited 15d ago )

The PS5 is showing to not reach the PS4, so you should worry about that instead.

hiawa2315d ago

That is pretty amazing. I love what Nintendo did with the Switch 2 as they fixed every issue I had with the original and it seems devs agree given the amount of 3rd party support it is receiving.

repsahj15d ago

I agree! That was their previous criticism of the Switch 1, now Nintendo has responded with the Switch 2. They still can't beat the games on console versions but the gap is massive compared to Switch 1 and ps4. For me, the end result that you see with your eyes while playing is what's important, not that you have to dissect the game and zoom in 200% to see the difference.

Levii_9215d ago

Most disappointing console i've ever bought. I regret buying it right away.

Sgt_Slaughter15d ago (Edited 15d ago )

It's a better Switch with much better graphics, third-party support, and fully backwards compatible. You knew what it would be before purchasing.

Besides, surely you were more disappointed by the PS3's launch or the Vita given how rough theirs were in comparison.

Neonridr14d ago

how is it more disappointing than the original Switch? It's an improvement in every way when you directly compare.

Sgt_Slaughter15d ago

All those clickbait YouTubers and Twitter users are going to be working overtime to try and swing this as a bad thing, when it continues to defy expectations and break records.

The Switch 2 has now outsold the Steam Deck nearly 3x over and is outselling the OG Switch by nearly 5,000,000 with half a year of sales to go for its first year.

repsahj15d ago

LOL! Specially Nintendeen. XD

MayorPauline15d ago

Apparently he was begrudgingly saying he was wrong. I'll take reddits word for it though. He ain't getting any traffic from me. I dont need him or any one like him stinking up my feed. You let in one grifter and the algotherim decides to flood you with them. 😆

Nintendo Faces Fresh Labor Complaints Three Years After Union-Busting Settlement

Nintendo of America is once again facing labor complaints from one or more of its workers. Game File reports that new charges accuse the Switch 2 manufacturer of violating sections of the National Labor Relations Act dealing with worker organizing and related union activities. These come just a few years after the company settled a previous labor charge with a former tester for $26,000.

I got scared before reading the entire headline

Miraak82 83d ago

Ya scary , seems more like a talent acquisition more then anything , nothing IP related

repsahj83d ago

Great news! It's good to hear that they want to maintain the quality of the games on the Switch 2.

TheColbertinator82d ago

Makes sense to pick up developers with previous Nintendo focused history.

Gamersunite88082d ago

Good. I think they'll help with Splatoon 4 and some Pokemon games.
