The Wonderful 101
The Wonderful 101 is a 2013 action-adventure game developed by PlatinumGames and published by Nintendo for the Wii U. The game was directed by Hideki Kamiya and produced by Atsushi Inaba. It was released in August 2013 in all major regions except North America, where it was released the following month. The Wonderful 101 received generally positive reviews, but failed to meet sales expectations.
A remastered version for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Windows, financed through crowdfunding, was released in May 2020. A version for Amazon Luna was made available in May 2021. The remastered version is PlatinumGames' first self-published title. A free downloadable content expansion for the remaster, The Wonderful One: After School Hero, was released in May 2023, with a standalone version released in the following month.
In The Wonderful 101, players control a horde of superheroes from an aerial viewpoint and can turn them into various objects called "Unite Morphs". As the levels progress, players must explore each stage to find helpless citizens and recruit them to join their army of heroes. The more heroes gathered, the greater the special morph powers can be. At the cost of depleting their battery meter, players can use "Unite Morph" forms to defeat enemies, solve puzzles, or traverse the environment. The meter can be recharged by performing normal attacks or by picking up batteries dropped by a defeated enemy. Enemies will also drop "O parts" (the in-game currency used to buy upgrades), new "Unite Morph" abilities and items. To transform the horde of heroes, the appropriate symbol is drawn on the Wii U GamePad's touchscreen or right analog stick, such as an L for a gun or a squiggly line for a whip. In specified areas, the GamePad (by default) is used to change the view to a traditional, third-person angle and better explore tighter environments, such as those found indoors and inside caves.
The single-player campaign is broken into levels. Each level ends with a grade depending on several factors, such as how long it takes the player to complete the level and how much damage the player took. In addition to a single-player mode, the game has a cooperative mode that supports up to five players, with one person utilizing the Wii U GamePad and the four others each using their own Wii U Pro Controllers.
The downloadable expansion The Wonderful One: After School Hero, features side-scrolling gameplay with only a single playable hero, Luka. The player can use Luka's goggles to fire laser blasts in any direction, and can switch between three different laser types that each have different advantages. The expansion features 12 stages, with unlockable bonus stages and score attack modes, and online leaderboard support.
The Wonderful 101 occurs during the third war in a series of conflicts between Earth and an intergalactic alien armada called the GEATHJERK Federation that has invaded the planet. The only hope for humanity is the Wonderful 100 or Wonderful Ones, a group of superheroes working for the CENTINELS Planetary Secret Service, an organization created by the United Nations.
The heroic main characters are Will Wedgewood (Wonder-Red) (Charlie Schlatter / Ryōhei Kimura), a Blossom City elementary school teacher and the leader of the Wonderful Ones, whose father Arthur is killed by Laambo; Eliot Hooker (Wonder-Blue) (Roger Craig Smith / Daisuke Egawa), a good and dedicated police detective that had an older brother is killed by Vijounne (Paula Tiso / Marika Hayashi); guns expert Jean-Sebastain Renault (Wonder-Green) (Kari Wahlgren / Orine Fukushima); fashion modeler Mariana Kretzulesco (Wonder-Pink) (Tara Strong / Yuki Uchiyama); Russian soldier Ivan Istochinkov (Wonder-Yellow) (JB Blanc / Hiroyuki Honda); ninja-in-training Momoe Byakkoin (Wonder-White) (Yuri Lowenthal / Yoichi Nishijima); and video game player and genius prodigy Krishna Ramanujan (Wonder-Black) (Kris Zimmerman / Orine Fukushima).
The supporting characters are P-Star, a robot assisting these heroes; Laurence Nelson (Wonder-Captain) (Gideon Emery / Yasuhiro Mamiya), the commander of the Centinels who was previously known as Wonder-Red; Virgin Victory operator Alice MacGregor (Laura Bailey / Tomo Muranaka); and science chief James Shirogane (Fred Tatasciore / Kenichi Ogata). Luka Alan Smithee (Debi Derryberry / Tomoni Yamakawa) is a Blossom City Elementary School student whose scientist mother, Margarita, died working for the CENTINELS and gave her life so that the artificial intelligence, Mother Platinum, could sustain the Earth's defensive shield, named Margarita in her honor. Luka joins the group and becomes Wonder-Goggles at the end of the game. The last member of the Galactic Police Federation is Immorta (Stephanie Lemelin / Miho Shinada); both her and her brother, Prince Vorkken (Quinton Flynn / Sho Sudo), lived on the Roaming Comet of Rhullo, but was brainwashed by Gimme, an alien who plants a virus in the form of a bio-weapon insect named Vaaiki on Vorkken's body. as a result, Vorkken becomes the vicious leader of the Guyzoch space pirates and with his right hand Chewgi. The main villain is Jergingha (Steve Blum / Kiyoyuki Yanada), the supreme overlord of the GEATHJERK Federation, who is attempting to destroy Earth (known to the rest of the universe as Chi-Q) to take back the galaxy from humanity.
