E3 2014 | Itagaki: How Devil's Third Became a Wii U Exclusive

Itagaki recently explained how Nintendo picked up Devil's Third as an exclusive for Wii U.

The former Team Ninja head revealed just how Nintendo picked up Devil's Third as a Wii U exclusive game. After the demise of original publisher THQ, Itagaki and his team were looking for a new partner and found "Nintendo who really supported my vision," he said in an interview this week at E3.

Despite the new partnership, Itagaki believes that "I'm not really sure it would have been possible ten years ago," but he has had a longstanding relationship with the company since the NES and SNES days. "There will always be accidents on the battlefield. You have to find ways through those and adapt," he said.

Devil's Third takes place in an alternative United Sates; a land dominated by war and now devoid of all electronics.
