SEGA Detail 2014 Nintendo Support, 13 3DS & 4 Wii U Projects

It’s not just Nintendo who have been sharing their financials with investors this week, SEGA has talked about their results and as well as their plans for the future.
Most interestingly is that SEGA have revealed just how many projects they have in development for a release this fiscal year on both of Nintendo’s platforms. SEGA have confirmed 4 Wii U titles and 13 3DS titles will launch before March 2015. With a little detective work we can have a guess at what these could be.

I have a feeling one of those 4 Wii U games is gonna be surprising one...

Metallox3629d ago

I have a feeling 2 of those 4 games are for Japan, and only Japan.

Obamanationn3629d ago

i dont doubt it , but does sega have a reputation w/ Nintendo of doing that? because it would hurt the console that barely has many games

Wii U - 4 games before March 2015

3DS - 13 games before March 2015.

Sega is definitely supporting Nintendo systems, hopefully these games are good.

thehobbyist3629d ago

No third parties they said, Nintendo is doomed they said.

Would be nice to see some Puyo Puyo or even some Yakuza... but my faith in Sega's localization of their games has gone to hell. Not to mention the Wii U version of Yakuza 1+2 HD sold piss poor in Japan, being historically a Sony console-based franchise and all.

OtakuDJK1NG-Rory3629d ago

nah Yakuza 1&2 collection and Puyo Puyo not gonna come. It most something new and exclusive.

Dchops3629d ago

Yeah, that's what I figure, too. I already gave up on Yakuza in the west, though I picked up 5 while I was in Japan a few months ago. Still haven't tried it out yet >.<

paulcek3629d ago (Edited 3629d ago )

Wow, that's pretty good support. More than 1 game a month (average) for the 3DS. Wii U is also pretty good for third party support. I guess SEGA does generally do well on Nintendo platforms.

I loved Super Monkey Ball, so I'm hoping for another one. And I'm pretty excited for Sonic Boom because it's ex-Naughty Dog guys doing it. My expectations are high for Sonic Boom, considering that it's a sonic game.

Sega actually talked about that when asked why Lost World was Wii U exclusive. they said it was because historically their audience was on Nintendo platforms.

XiSasukeUchiha3629d ago

I have a feeling it is going to be Sonic Adventure 3

X1PS4WiiU3629d ago

One of them is Sonic Boom, and that takes influences from Sonic Adventure(according to the dev).

So don't count on it at all.

randomass1713628d ago

I wouldn't bet on Adventure either. That shipped sailed because Sonic Team went threw crew changes over the years, especially when Yuji Naka left.

sonic9893629d ago

i think it would be wise to release that game with that name on all consoles because many people are waiting for it .
by the way Sonic Boom ( even though i hate the westernized design SO MUCH ) doesnt look bad gameplay wise it looks FUN lets wait and see how it turns out

Sega sells Relic and will cut 240 jobs across UK studios

GamesIndustry.biz writes: "Relic is best known for the Company of Heroes and Dawn of War games, and recently developed the new Age of Empires for Microsoft. Relic will transition to an independent studio and will no-longer be part of the Sega group of studios.

The majority of the 240 job cuts are across Creative Assembly and Sega Europe, while there will be a ‘small number’ cut from Sega HARDLight. There was no mention of other Sega UK studios, including Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive."

Shame about Creative Assembly, they should have just been allowed to do an Alien Isolation sequel.

just_looken18d ago

It was that garbage coh 3 that did them in only a special team can make a sequel worse in every way even though it was a 10 year gap and the same era.

gold_drake19d ago

I hope they find new jobs in the industry soon.

Jingsing19d ago

Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive probably run on a shoe string budget so that fits into SEGA better lol

SEGA’s Switch Predecessor: What Happened to the Nomad?

Sega had such a turbulent existence from the mid-90s to when they dropped out of console manufacturing entirely in 2001, it’s understandable if you’ve never heard of the Genesis Nomad.
