It’s coming up on two years since PlatinumGames teased The Wonderful 101 for the Switch.
It was much more blatant than their tease of Bayonetta & Bayonetta 2 for the Switch, which is why when that became reality, I assumed The Wonderful 101 was right around the corner.
We haven’t heard much since then, although in an interview with Gematsu earlier this month, Platinum’s Atsushi Inaba said he was glad he’s mentioned the possibility of The Wonderful 101 on the Switch and asked fans to “be patient.”
Now, in an E3 interview with VGC, Inaba further addressed the matter by saying:
The Wonderful 101 is obviously something that we hold near and dear to our hearts. And so we’ve talked to a lot of different people about what it is and what it means. We’ve done a lot of intel gathering and the only thing that I can say right now is that I’m glad we did. I’m glad that we talked to a lot of different people.”
Now, that’s not confirmation that The Wonderful 101 is coming to the Switch… for all we know, their “intel gathering” could have shown them there isn’t enough demand for it.
Combined with his earlier comment about being patient, however, it sounds like there’s a good chance of The Wonderful 101 being released for the Switch.
I enjoyed The Wonderful 101 on the Wii U, and I’d love to see a re-release or a sequel. Will you be interested in The Wonderful 101 if it comes to the Switch?

Thanks! I hope this amounts to something and we get The Wonderful 101 or a sequel (or both)!
