PlatinumGames and Nighthawk Interactive announced today that The Wonderful 101: Remastered is coming to Nintendo Switch in North America on May 19th, 2020.
Fans that were hoping for a remaster of the Wii U exclusive on other platforms got a chance to make it a reality when PlatinumGames launched a Kickstarter campaign in February 2020 to self-publish the title. In less than a month, the campaign received more than enough support from fans to guarantee its release.
The Wonderful 101 originally released for the Nintendo Wii U in 2013 and made use of the console’s GamePad screen. In a message posted on the remaster’s official website, PlatinumGames’ Chief Game Designer Hideki Kamiya states, “this isn’t just a simple port, either. We’ve tuned the controls for each new platform and made several adjustments that should make it easier to grasp and play.”
