Vigil Games is “not allowed to talk about the Wii U version” of Darksiders 2

18 Comments

Joe Madureira of Vigil Games has confirmed what could have been assumed, in that they are “not allowed to talk about the Wii U version” of the Darksiders 2. Now, Madureira is the head of the company, so it definitely seems like Nintendo is the one stopping them from talking about the game. I would suspect this is because they want to show-off many of their third-party titles with a bang at the end of September.

    This might be true … but maybe(And I really hope thats the case ) This game has one of the features not announced yet the Wii U can do :D

    is there anything, not evil? it makes games so stupid. thats probably why excitebots and pikmin are awesome, and stuff like assassins creed, this game, etc is completely trash.

      Hilarious… Because… People tend to dislike games that appear “kiddy” without actually playing them, yet you dislike games without actually playing because they appear “evil”. And how is assassin’s creed evil? It’s about assassins, not demons or… Evil stuff. (this is why I assume you judge games without playing) Also first comment ever (since the new comment system) proud?

      you murder people on assassins creed yo. thats like saying that batman movie shooting guy isnt evil one bit (real story if you dont know about it). and you dont really do anything on it but climb buildings which supposed to be including in any normal fighting game, which nobody has made yet, and kill people. and speaking of creed, my brother has 2 of them on xbox which looks boring anyway. personally i think some people like games like that only becuz they arent actually physically in shape to do things like climbing buildings themselves. so they probably think its cool. when its just as cool as walking.

      im not totally against these kind of games, but when these kind of games are being made, and no other good game, like metroid, thats freaking annoying. and the last metroid game was pathetic, metroid fans even know that. excitebots or dbz bk 3 on wii, was the last good games i got, when i bought them new. i been waiting years for a good game and no one has even made one yet. and if it is a good game, kind of like starfoxes multiplayer mode on 3ds, it just so happens to lack online gaming which is the whole point of games to begin with.

      … No. It isn’t. Assassin’s creed is a game. No one is really killed when you play it. That batman guy killed REAL people. Big difference.

      Not true. People like Assassin’s creed for the plot. (although I don’t think it’s all that great :P) and the gameplay is genuinely fun. No one is playing it because they “think it’s cool”

      How is it annoying? Ubisoft makes Assasin’s creed and Nintendo make Metroid. I could see it being annoying if they were made by the same company as they would be neglecting their other games (which Nintendo is doing with Mario) but that’s not the case. (lolwut)

      Whoa. No need to write an essay for a ridiculous statement…

      …But in Metroid, Samus regularly hunts down and kills entire colonies of Space Pirates. Sometimes destroying whole worlds. Samus has single handedly killed more people/species in any given game than the entire body count of the whole Assassin’s Creed series.

    At least September will be awesome.

      i hope so, it will not scared people when they see the price, they will change there mind when these games are shown.

    Wow. The system’s releasing in just a few months and developers STILL aren’t allowed to talk about their games? Freaking Nintendo. Stop these goddam NDAs already!

      I think its like a Fight Club thing.
      “First rule of WiiU is we dont talk about WiiU. Second rule of WiiU is WE DONT TALK ABOUT WIIU!”

      And Iwata is the president.
