During a recent interview, designer Ben Cureton was asked about whether he can share anything from the Wii U version of Darksiders II. Cureton replied by saying he doesn’t want to get fired and therefore can’t say anything about Nintendo’s upcoming console, the Wii U.
Can you tell us anything about the Wii U version at all?
“I can’t say anything about the Wii U. I don’t want to get fired!”
That’s work for ya.
Apparently this is news.
That’s Alba for ya.
Alba is good. I love you Alba.
I don’t see how this is news. Other developers say that even as jokes about new projects and stuff. Then again, THQ/Darksiders team have already shared a good amount of info about the game and the system itself.

Unacceptable! People want to know about Wii U!
This is clearly a man with a boss who wants no-one to have anything to do with Nintendo.
It’s not that simple. Random developers can’t say a lot of information about the Wii U just like that. That’s up to Nintendo.
Beware those Nintendo Ninjas.
its true because the guy who took the picture of the updated wii u tablet before it was revealed at the pre e3 got his ass fired
when did you heard that?
Some nintendo fan you are…even I knew that :P
Retard google it!
oh good old Aeolus how you been my little whiny friend
i know, is in it cute when he gets mad at Nintendo fans.
——
Together Wii U
You should know ur the biggest nintendo fan in denial
aeolus talking to me
dont know what im saying heres the proof
nevermind
i didn’t known this ether! o_O
it was in june before e3
exactly and aelous im not a nintendo fanboy u prick
That’s quite obvious…Maybe not necessarily fired but they’ll obviously get into trouble…And the way he worded it suggests it’s more of that, than he’s been told explicitly that talking about it will get him fired.
Nintendo just dont want sony and microsoft to copy them. Smart move and common sense really.
I agree.
cause freakin sony rip off smash bros or the xbox 720 might also have a tablet
LOL who cares ? sony and microsoft do 10x better !! atleast they improve on them ..
exactly. Nintendo had to release a Wii Motion Plus. Wouldn’t be surprised if is gonna be a wiiU gamePad PLUS :P
Wrong, the gamepad already has a gyro, accelerometer, and Motion sensor. What are they gona do, make it transform?
Its funny how they are saying that they improved the tech cos the move and kinect were a great success lol.
Yep. And Kinect isnt even great tech, it has no practical use other than for casual games, not to mention it doesnt even work properly, and still fanboys defend it.
Cant eait to see the look on there face when they have to pay for Kinect 2.0 fron the next box, because its build in
Kinect 2 haha. Surely they’ve learnt their lesson. That would be an epic fail.
I can tell Ness will love kinect 2
If it is a pad Plus… make it even more responsive? :P Nintendo are well known for expanding on their products. N64 had the expansion pack for games. Wii with motion plus etc
I wouldn’t be surprised if such a thing exists in the U’s life cycle.
Its possible, but i don’t see what else they can add.
Cant make it more responsive.
I wouldnt be surprised if nintendo bought something out to accomadate a few games, but not a whole redesign of the game pad. Unless they make a HD one with a larger battery
lol good one
Could be worse. They could release their controller without rumble because “nobody wants it any more” only to then realise that people do want rumble and thus release a new controller with rumble built in.
But thankfully no company has ever been stupid enough to do that…
“LOL who cares ?” everyone, you yourself buy rip off products.
Yes because New super mario bros 2 on the eShop is CHEAPER THAN retail copies…
HAHAH!
umm how does nsmb2 fit in the Sony and M$ copy hardware comment, you went very off topic.
Basically you said MS and sony rip people off… when Nintendo charge too much for Eshop games when retail is cheaper…he hardly went off topic.
Not hard to understand. He may be a troll but he made a valid point. Alot of people are pissed off because they want to buy it digitally.
Well i was talking about the hardware and he show up and said nsmb2.
I dont care. I am talking about companies. Shock horror but Nintendo Sony and MS are companies who run a business and want to make money. Nintendo are not perfect either. Far from it actually.
The digital release of Mario has sparked an outcry. Nintendo need to push the digital platform… not destroy it!
^ Implying that matching retail price is a game-ending flaw.
You’re just a cheap scrooge looking for a bashing excuse.
And you’re failing at finding a legitimate one.
But it IS a reflection on a missed opportunity and a complete lack of understanding on Nintendos part about how to use Digital Distribution!
obviously they are going to be more advanced. they had longer after nintendo to create the things they copy. still doesnt mean they are better. look at move or kinnect vs wii. the wii wins even without motion plus.
well ness is kind telling the truth
Damn, this NDA is getting a little too serious
If Nintendo doesn’t want it then you can’t say it otherwise piss off…
I understand. After all, it’s up to Nintendo to release information about their own system.
Obviously a joke. Why is these being posted? Has Patcher not said anything today?
honestly I’m thankful for ANYTHING posted on this site. I mean….at least its SOMETHING
oh shit!
He is lucky if he just get fired. In worst case Nintendo will send their Ninja’s on him and then he’s screwed for real…
Those Nintendo ninjas man.
They’re swift.
Its coz the wii u is weak !! if he sais anything about the wii u , he will get fired ..coz nintendo wants to trick people into buying it .. Wii U is a piece of shit !

LOL, fucking WIN, Dragon.XD
I posted a long comment and you said exactly what I said! :D
http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2010/01/wow-nerd-south-park-580.jpg
this is you
What a handsome Samsom.
“I posted a long comment and you said exactly what I said!”
ness just owned your ass.
this guy works for darksider people, not Nintendo.
Stupid comment. They are working FOR nintendo if they are making a game for their platform…they obv need to learn the (inferior) tech inside the box and if they have any trouble they will contact Nintendo to get answers. Watch the interview with two guys at darksiders if you haven’t already.
If they are WORKING ON THE game for the NINTENDO CONSOLE then they should know what is inside the box… FACEPALM you are such an idiot :P please refer from posting more retarded comments.
nope that’s not a legit answer, there making games for Nintendo not working for Nintendo. PLUS i can tell you get mad like crazy when reply to me like that. It seems like your boyfriend Ness can’t defend you when i use my words of justice.
Actually if you are making a game for a Nintendo platform you will need to talk to Nintendo wiiU technicians who made the console in the first place. When you are stuck on something you usually Google it but if the tech is new… chances are you cant find the answer your looking for. So naturally, you would go to Nintendo for the answers.
The darksiders 2 technical director said in an interview they experienced challenges with certain parts of the wiiU gamepad but they rang up Nintendo for help.
So really they are working for Nintendo. Especially the unique features of the pad.
They did, these are the guys. Yes, literally 2 people put the game on the WiiU.
http://youtu.be/Tl3HGOsAlx0
I know, but he said it like this the people that made this game work for nintendo. NOT the company but the people.
Your just a “Snowman”. U HAVE NO GAMES TO PLAY! LMAO!!!
ROFL! EARTHBOUND REFERENCES!
LOL at this article, hardly news at all.
Why is Nintendo so secretive about their specs? what are they hiding? Inferior tech? I think so They want people to buy the console and fool them into thinking this is a next gen box…
And no the dude at Scribblenauts is not a reliable source… he is making a 2d GAME… not hard to make to be honest… :P same applies to TwoTribes who are making a cartoony puzzle game
Assassin creed 3…yeah great 1080p but I can buy the game on a CURRENT GEN console rather than spend my money on a NEW console that is an overclocked 360… even the ex darksiders 2 guy said it is 7 years late. I take his word since he was a developer and actually know about tech unlike most on this site…who pretend they do.. LOLz…Also, what is the point in releasing Ass 3 when Ass 1 and 2 werent on Nintendo consoles? Poor nintendo fanboys (revolution) are going be confused. You can always youtube Let’s play videos and watch GAMERS play on CONSOLES you all DESPISE so so much :P
and the dude at crytek says cryengine 3 (a CURRENT GEN engine) runs beautifully and a game from a well respected dev is using it… WHERE IS THE GAME? Marketing speak as always.
People (outside of this site) are getting bored of this secretive shit and pushing them away from the hype train. I am not talking for myself but GAMERS everywhere. Nintendo fanboys not included because they gobble up Nintendo’s bullshit tactics as of late.
also ZombiU and rayman legends maybe exclusives but Ubisoft are obv gonna bring them to other consoles and PC…they love their money. Look at rayman origins… on every single platform including the shitty 3ds version that looked awful in 3d and felt laggy :P
you wrote all that even though nobody will read it.
oh and by the way this is you
http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2010/01/wow-nerd-south-park-580.jpg
double posting as always. You and dragon make a great couple posting Memes that are OLD… that episode is so old now… get with the times..I forgot… you are a prophet to the God Nintendo… you are stuck in 2006 with the NEW current gen console :P and playing catch up with achievements… sorry accomplishments :P
For once you actually wrote you instead of U…well done. Keep it that way. NO ONE.. even your fellow nintendroids like it because it is fucking annoying.
aww its cute when you and ness get mad at me. maybe you guys need to go out in a date. you know you want to.
Actually you read it and so did other people. Like Moths to a flame :D
retard
you so mad, you need to get out more.
I am not mad :p YOU are though :P
Literally that is the only comeback you come up with. It’s actually quite funny
i don’t see any comment of mine in this article getting mad.
It seems like im the only one getting you mad.
That former darksiders dev did not work on the wii u at all. He claimed in he said that it was 7 years late based on speculation. That is about as reliable as a blind eye witness.
I am sure he has friends in the games industry who worked on it, game devs in the industry always share these things…again a common symptom of Nintendo fans…wishfull thinking :P just like before E3 when EVERYONE wanted a new zelda, starfox, smash bros etc etc etc all shown in one conference…you did get zelda, f zero etc…. in Nintendoland ROFL
I love seeing people’s hopes get CRUSHED.
“I am sure he has friends in the games industry who worked on it,”
again you said that it does not count it has to be an article to prove it.
I love crushing you’re dreams.
How is it wishful thinking? i pretty much stated the dev in my own words and pointed out how a dev who does work on a console is probably not very reliable in this situation. You then go on to stereotype all Nintendo fans, bring up E3 for some odd reason, and base your entire reply on a hunch that everybody shares what they are doing with each other. Rival companies do not share development plans. “I love seeing people’s hopes get CRUSHED.” Who are you responding to? Hope can only be crushed if stated or revealed. The entire reply is a mess.
Did you make yourself feel relevant by writing all of that? You truly have a pathetic life if you sit on a website all day, everyday, refreshing it, and explaining why you don’t like it what it’s about. It’s so sad you spend the majority of your time on something you hate. Your going to be the death of yourself. You are your own worst enemy…
THIS^^^^
also this is him
http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2010/01/wow-nerd-south-park-580.jpg
And I wouldn’t see trolls any other way!
Wow, you reached a new level of stupidity.
First of all, go look at some launch day 360 games. Yeah, not so great looking, not mention they’re all terrible.
Second, that guy from THQ didnt even work on the WiiU, he’s not even played the damn thing, how is his opinion any better than the stuff you posted? Totally bias opinionated garbage. And he was just having a little bitch fit due to being fired, swearing in a legitmate interview, basically doing what you do when someone prove you’re an idiot and you say, “shut up you fucking faggot fanboy HAHAHAHAHA wiiu is shit”. Gee, big man.
Thirdly, about the CryEngine3 game…ermm….do you think that maybe, its being made? What do you want, a constant live stream overseeing the entire development of the game?
Retro studios are making a game, we havent seen it, does that make it marketing talk? No, they just arent ready to show it.
Games like Remember Me showed up this week, its been in development for years, yet novody knew anything about it, same with Watch Dogs. Its the developer, publishers and Nintendo choice when to show off a game, dont try to act as though you know the tiniest thing about marketing, when you all you do is sit on here (and before you say it, i did media studies at college, i know all about marketing, budgets, ect).
And everyone is getting bored of this, not just “gamers” outside of Nintendo (give me a break), we all want to know about the system. But do you know why we dont?
Fucking stupid cunts like you, and the unoriginal head honchos down at Sony and Microsoft. It took Microsoft LESS THAN A YEAR to respond with a “challenge” to the WiiU, even though it was a piece of crap. This is why the NDA is in affect, because the majority if the gaming world is full of unoriginal money grabbing bastards, and stupid graphic fetish norins like yourself.
And do you really believe Ubisoft will put work into porting ZombiU and Rayman to other consoles, when they either have no similar control support to the WiiU, or ine that requires $500 worth of tech, including a handheld thats barely selling. No, they wont.
Keep the Wii-U in secrecy!
I will never see the day when Nintendo naysayers squabble like men.
Try and show some dignity, people.
I kinda disagree. The Nintendo posters on here are actually worse posting death threats
This site is overrun with man-children.
This is the publicity Nintendo gets.
A raging sea of angry, immature hooligans.
These are Harvard graduates when compared to most Anti-Nintendo sites.
Yup you just describe the drones we got here.
I only wanna know whats going to be released this year on wii u anyway. I dont see what the point of announcing games that are coming out next year is going to accomplish. Just look at the gta v announcement for example. Its pointless.
Considering that Sony is desperately looking for every little opportunity to churn out and over-hype a half-baked copy of anything Nintendo does, it’s not surprising that Nintendo has some strict NDA in place.
What about games like RE6, Borderlands 2, Crysis 3, etc.. It’s NDA also the reason why devs don’t announce those game for Wii U?
is this supposed to be news? it’s like their SOP. if they can’t reveal anything then they can’t.
I’m glad to see Sickr and Alba continue to post anything said about WiiU, dispite the Jealous comments of people who either don’t own a blog, or have a failing one.
It’s also good to see, that with 3DS kicking ass, and WiiU ramping up to do the same, that the drones, trolls and Anti-Nintendo Fanboys are swamping to places like this to try and do some kind of damage. I waste very little time reading their comments anymore. They are repetative and ignorant.
Yeah same shit different day and people act like they can change other people over the internet lol
you know what i think it is ? well Developers who work with nintendo upcomming games will be paid with a extra money if they dont talk about the untold.
Damn, Nintendo is really serious. At the end of the day it’s still business, can’t share Coca Cola’s secrets to Pepsi.
Pingback: Developer Claims He’ll Get Fired If He Says Anything About Wii U « NintendoCenter
He didn’t say he would get fired, he said he doesn’t want to get fired. Meaning he didn’t know and didn’t want to take a chance.
Why is this a news story? I don’t get it. Enough of this drivel. It’s obvious they can give details about Wii U. We know this. MOVE ON.
