We have to support all of these platinum games. Bayonetta 3, Astral Chain, & Scalebound.

IF this is true, it would be AMAZING! But, I am gonna hold off before believing it.

Nintendo should just buyout Platinum games at this point

[BCG]

Microsoft no longer owns the rights to Scalebound. They actually haven’t for almost two years or so.

Platinum games is on fire. This could be the biggest year yet. Bayonetta 3. Astral Chain. And now possibly Scalebound!

So this might be the salt inducing nose bleed that you spoke of?!?! This would certainly be a truckload of salt.

If it happened, it would be quite the nosebleed

This would be really amazing if Nintendo and Platinum Games were to revive, redevelop, and reimagine Scalebound for the Nintendo Switch. Even though the game had some minor issues with the frame-rate when we first saw gameplay, the game did look cool. Scalebound revived with a new concept and maybe it can be a single player only open world Action-Adventure game would be great. Platinum can even borrow some ideas and inspiration from other open world games like Breath of the Wild, Horizon Zero Dawn, Xenoblade Chronicles X, etc. It could be developed using Unreal Engine 4. They can still have the creative freedom to make it how they wanted it to be but also add a new concept to it to make it even better.

Bayonetta, Astral Chain, and Scalebound exclusive to Nintendo would be incredible and Platinum Games and Hideki Kamiya always have the best relationship with Nintendo.

If this is true, Nintendo is giving the gaming world the beatdown.

At this point I’ll be disappointed if its NOT resurrected on switch

[DroneCrusher]

bro, if this is true, then I'll definitely be getting this day one.

[tomsimmons]

Both Spawnwave and Nintendo Life have reported the trademark is abandoned.

[thedinotamergaming]

if this rumor appears to be real i´m actually gonna go super saiyan!

[mr_m]

People be sleeping on platinum games man, I actually think they are better than most developers out there, yes even better than rockstar.

[trentoinsano]

If it looks pretty much the same that would be great, I’d hate for it to not look as good as what the old game looked like

[souit]

IF they change the models to an art style that goes like astral chain, this could run on the switch

[ryanlandes]

On the Switch, it'll be called Scaledown.

Good video PE Ninja Master. I would be absolutely shocked n pleased if Nintendo manages too bring Scalebound from the brink too Switch as an Exclusive. The other game that was cancelled but I would like too happen is that Darth Maul game, I think it would be awesome too have a Star Wars game as an Exclusive but with Disney n EA at the mo can't see it happening anytime soon tho.

[ClintStryzer]

This has got to be the nose bleed if true.

Scalebound was THE reason i bought an xbox one. So i was kinda disappointed that i got cancelled back then, Here's hoping for a switch version!
