Doubt they'll have the special edition as a retailer exclusive.
It's not limited, it's more like a day one edition.
Also Amazon UK mentions the Bayo 1 in a separate disc on the description.

Hmm.

Well there were rumblings that in the EU the Bayo 1 disc would be in a special edition release.

No biggie. Ive pre-ordered and screen capped the description. If Amazon now change it before release, I will argue for my order to be bumped up to the special edition at no extra cost.

After getting used to her new hairstyle, the old one now looks absolutely hideous.

I like the new hair style but I still prefer the original.

Heh, did the same actually when i preordered.

I wouldn't go that far, but the new one is a lot more stylish

if you ask me the old hairstyle tries a little too hard to evoke that "sexy librarian" look

 

[Choomp]

Cool, didn't really see a Bayonetta direct coming. Pretty excited though. Loving that hair.

 

[Not]

I'm already bored.

Spoiler

I care very little about this game

kiiiinda weird to go into a Bayonetta topic when you don't care about it

Why wouldn't you care about one of the top-of-the-class games in the action combat genre anyhow? You should try to let her sway envelop you and make you a better gamer. It's a life force that enriches your every skill set, it's inescapable. You know this to be true!

 

[Son Of D]

I think I'll do the same as well. If it works Bayonetta 1 and 2 for £32? Bargain.

Bayonetta was available for 30pounds @ base.com. They raised it this afternoon, I guess too many people from HUKD ordered it.
But yes, insane price. I didn't buy Bayonetta 1, because the PS3 port was crap. And now I'm effectively paying 15pounds for Bayo1 and 15pounds for Bayo2

Knew this was coming.

It's a Nintendo Direct topic. I care about those. I'm cheesed because the Direct itself is devoted to something I don't care about.

Now I'm curious: what do you DO care about?

 

[Jotamide]

Get hype. I don't even own a Wii U and this is probably the very first game I'll preorder for full retail price in years.

EDIT: lol why did I think this was happening today?

 

[MissDeviling]

I liked how iconic her silhouette was though. Her outrageous hair really matched the tone of the game, and was so memorable for me. Her infernal monsters forming from her hair really worked too. Her second hairstyle's more stylish, but the silliness of the first just clicked for me.

Do you go around mad that things happen that do not involve or affect you in any way

 

[StreetsAhead]

Gosh darn it, I though this was starting soon. Now I probably won't be able to watch live tomorrow.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

*Not hears a house nearby with the vague sounds of people singing Happy Birthday*

Not: Why on earth are they celebrating this for people I don't know or have affection for?!

 

[Mlatador]

Same here. Whenever the LE drops, I'm gonna get it. Only question is gonna be: what way can I get it the fastest (retail or amazon preorder). I'm not even gonna go hunt for bargains. I mean, c'mon, the game even comes with the definitive version of Bayo 1, that's insane value.

Hey! I care about birthdays - just cheesed this is a party devoted to someone I don't care about.

 

[Aswell]

Is the EU release date for Bayonetta 2 on Amazon.fr (October 31st) a mere placeholder or has it been confirmed already?
If not, I hope the EU date will be announced tomorrow.

Pretty sure the title says "Bayonetta Nintendo Direct" and not a general "Nintendo Direct" so you were not mislead. And it's not new that a Nintendo Direct is dedicated to tent pole releases.

But I'm just sayin...

Anyways, it looks like Nintendo plans on putting some marketing muscle behind this game...and that bodes quite well for Bayonnetta...

 

[Refreshment.01]

As always Bayo info and exposure is apreciated. But is this an Europe/America Direct only? The reason i ask is because the game comes October 28th so it seems to early. Specially considering the Japanese version is a September release.

Japan is also getting a Direct I believe.

 

[ReyVGM]

Smash Bros Direct announced at the end a new 3DS, you think they'll announce a cheaper or slimmer WiiU on this one?

Maybe.. I saw a bird with 4 legs yesterday

 

[Black Soma]

This week Famitsu has an article about the game. It shows new enemies and weapons (a scythe and some kind of firearms, I think). Also Luka is back.

Can't wait when they reveal bayonetta for smash and vanquish 2 at the end of the direct.

I would freak. Out. Over vanquish 2.

What more could they say about Bayonetta 2?

I'm expecting them to provide semi-heavy spoilers at this point, unless there is still content we don't know about outside of the game itself.

 

[black_vegeta]

Media blackout strength weakening.

 

[Draconian]

What more could they say about Bayonetta 2?

They've barely gone into detail about the multiplayer mode at all.

Stay strong my fellow friend. You are paying full price, so you should get the full experience first hand. Blackout and be amazed on day one!

 

[PensivePen]

I'm more looking forward to the Devil May Cry and Bayonetta crossover that will surely be announced. With special guest Gene.

I'm just going to watch with my eyes closed.

I hope that the EU gets it earlier than the States to make up for the delay of Capt Toad Treasure Tracker.

 

[Jurassic Munson]

I'm disappointed with the lack of hype in here. I am looking for the train.

Wait, a Bayonetta...podcast? I think you've stumbled on to something great.

I totally forgot this was a thing and now I'm really excited again

I'm trying to keep my expectations reasonable.

Spoiler

I'm really, really hoping for a demo announcement though.

I don't think Nintendo should offer a demo of this have... Knowing platinum and demos .....demos really hurt their games

And yet they release one for nearly every game. And I love them every time for it.

Lack of hype? It's morning now in Euroland, i've only slept for 4 hours, about to go to work, and i can't wait to get back home from work, so i can sleep a couple of hours to have the necessary juice to watch the direct at 1 AM.
I'm taking a week off when it's out.
There's no lack of hype, it's lack of posters.
Unlike popular belief in GAF, PG fams are not that many.

 

[Net_Wrecker]

I'm just going to watch with my eyes closed.

That's pretty much how I got through the Wonderful 101 Direct. I kept switching to different tabs and letting it run in the background. Caught the general gist of it but avoided seeing too much.

The Bayonetta demo kinda took away any doubts I had about it not being amazing, so eh

I'm listening to "Tomorrow is mine" for about 2 hours hahahaha

I really thing that we will get a demo like TW101! =D

when do we expect the leakers to start leaking Nintendo Directs early?

would be cool if they put out a demo
