50k may not be all that’s needed for the port, but also Nintendo may have not wanted to back a remaster since Platinum seems to want 101 on non-Nintendo platforms. For other publishers? Idk
what does it say that Platinum couldn't find anyone willing to publish their remaster of The Wonderful 101, but their kickstarter hit its goal within like 13 minutes?

totally – i'm sure they undershot the target number by a fair amount. it still feels like there's a major disconnect between demand for this game and the willingness of publishers to take on the risk, for one reason or another. i'm curious what that reason is!

I can do that easily for free. Just @ him and complain about Bayonetta 3 or ask what his favorite color is

50,000 dollars is seriously chump change for a company and game development.

Because backers aren't investing in hope of a return. Unlike companies they aren't gambling money on a risky project that may not pay the dividends needed to pay their employees/appease stockholders. crowdfundings a risk for consumers. But at worst you don't receive your product

I think it says that their goal was misleadingly tiny - it costs way more than $50k to remaster a game! But I'm super happy for them regardless!!

The only reason ninty didnt publish is bc platinum wanted to make it multiplat. So i wouldnt be surprised if Nintendo had already helped fund the Switch port at least a bit and most of the other money is going to funding ports to other platforms. Just a guess tho
