The Wonderful 101 Game's Trailer Streamed

Nintendo began streaming a new trailer for Platinum Games' (Bayonetta, Metal Gear Rising, MadWorld) The Wonderful 101 Wii U game during its Nintendo Direct presentation on Wednesday.

Hideki Kamiya (Bayonetta) is directing the "mass-hero action" title. In the game, aliens are invading the Earth, and a group of unlikely heroes must join forces and work together to stop the invasion, since the aliens are too powerful for the heroes to fight alone. Each hero can transform into powerful weapons to attack the aliens, or they can transform into other objects such as a bridge to help the team traverse environments. Players work to recruit citizens to join their hero team and to broaden the team's transformative powers.

Nintendo previously announced that it would release the game in North America during Nintendo's "launch window" between November 18, 2012 and March 31, 2013.
