Nintendo Direct NA on 9/4 at 3 PM PT for Bayonetta 2 for WiiU

Almost...at...climax!!!!!

Can't wait for this direct, been on pins and needles since yesterday lol. Demo please, and may the gamer gods take notice of what's undoubtedly, for many reasons, one of the greatest WiiU/Nintendo platform releases in recent history.
 
This might be one direct where I just look for the headlines. I don't want anymore gameplay spoiled for me AND I don't want a recap of what I've already seen condensed and explained over the length of the direct.
 
Is Nintendo's site stream the same as twitch? If not which one has better quality? I've watched Directs before but never really cared.
 
Senketsu Bayonetta, pls. 😍😍

You're welcome.
 
To this day I still hold this as a standard for how you show a game while spoiling jack all about it's real story. Fantastic.

That's great if you're playing a PG game for the story (not wise, although W101's is fairly enjoyable), but as I mentioned elsewhere, that trailer shows damn near everything related to gameplay. Which is a shame, because those were the really great moments to discover. Can't stress enough how fortunate I was to have avoided it before getting my hands on the game.

I can't resist this Bayo 2 Direct, but I think I'll avert my eyes any time unfamiliar footage starts playing.
 
Yeah, I'd be real surprised if they don't give us a demo. But unlike the W101 demo I really hope they don't put a limit on how many times you can play it. That was really wack, it didn't matter for me because I played the W101 demo a handful of times but I can see myself playing the Bayonetta 2 demo a lot more.
 
Any info as to whether this is a purely Bayo direct or if it will include other games? Can't really be bothered to watch if it's just Bayo.
(please don't kill me fans)

I think that's the standard for all demos on Nintendo devices and I don't see that changing with Bayo.

Fuck I didn't even think about that.

The problem with the demo limit is that, it doesn't allow me to perfect my skills like the game wants me to. I can't even count how many times I played the demo for the original.

My vow's already broken.

Sin with me. Sin with us.

Noooo! I will not give in.

I wonder if deleting and re-installing it tricks the Wii U into thinking you never had it before or if it's smart and it remembers. There's only one way to find out.

I remember when the Skate demo came out and I was super hyped on that game at the time so I kept playing it over and over. It had a time limit but at least you could keep rebooting the demo to your heart's content.

It's a Bayonetta 2 Direct, so very likely they will not talk about other games, but it has happened in the past, on rare occasions.

For instance, sometimes in a "3DS Direct" they will discuss some Wii U games and trick us, and vice versa. But usually not.

They won't announce anything big that's non-Bayonetta related, because people who aren't interested in Bayonetta aren't going to be watching.

just listen to it in the background

I'm on media black out, but it's more a visual one than an audio one :p

It worked for W101 direct so I'll try it for Bayo2
