I came.... Why must it be an exclusive?!

If Nintendo is publishing it then chances are that Sega wasn't going to do it. In other words, the game wouldn't exist without Nintendo.

 

[Combichristoffersen]

. . . that seems blown out of proportion

It's a joke. The original post was made by an enraged GAFfer when FF XIII was revealed as coming to Xbox 360. From there on said post took on a life of its own and often gets posted (with alterations to make it fit) whenever a 'betrayalton' happens.

 

[danmaku]

Ok, looks like I need a WiiU. I hope the game will work with the Classic 360 clone pad.

 

[pswii60]

FUCK! WHY is this exclusive to Wii U???? DOES NOT make any sense! MAAAn im so angry right now

It's probably the difference between Bayonetta 2 happening and not happening. So count your lucky stars.

 

[orioto]

At least if it's developped for WiiU from scratch, i hope some cool shaders!

 

[mooooose]

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAT

 

[EatChildren]

That's really rude of you, man. I expected better from a moderator.

lol

 

[ConradCervantes]

Nintendo with the killshot.

 

[scarybore]

Wow, didn't expect this. Will have to buy a Wii U a lot earlier than I expected.

 

[Kazuma Kiryu]

Release it on 360 or no sale.

i guess they won't have your sale then.

 

[Raptor]

Even if Kamiya is not involved directing he is in Platinum though and his name is in there so I guess he is giving some advices, also the combat engine is there, just make it more insane and thats it.

System seller right there, from "I will wait for a price cut" a few minutes ago to "fuck I have to buy this"

INCREDIBLE NINTENDO!

 

[darkpaladinmfc]

:OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[twinturbo2]

Guys, I think Platinum trolled us all.

 

[Solid warrior]

Bad sequel to awful original on terribad console.

Pass.

smh

 

[Sallokin]

Well this just solidified my Wii-U purchase...

 

[jett]

is this a big deal?

To fans of the original game it is. Sega had reportedly canned development of Bayonetta 2. Conceivably Nintendo revived the game, which is why it's exclusive and they are publishing it themselves.

 

[hey_it's_that_dog]

I came.... Why must it be an exclusive?!

Because Nintendo wants to sell a whopping 100,000 more Wii U's. Savvy business move!

Maybe there will be a Bayonetta 2 Sigma for PS3 and... PC????

 

[Glass Rebel]

LOL @ the port begging.

This is probably the only way you'd have gotten Bayo 2 anyway.

 

[InfiniteNine]

Well I went from not caring to buying the Wii U just with this.

 

[Forkball]

Incoming Gamestop exclusive.

 

[JoeFu]

Seriously at people port begging. All evidence pointed to Sega not wanting to do anything with Bayonetta, and here's Nintendo publishing the game and probably the only reason Platinum gets to make the second one...

 

[The_Monk]

Wallet, why are you hiding from me now? Come on... it's okay, show up....

 

[Sheroking]

Disappointing, and I don't even own one of the competing platforms or care that much about the game.
I was simply hoping to see this "moneyhatting for exclusives" for everything that isn't first party as a thing of the past, in this next console generation coming.

Anyway, given the sales of the first one, I would almost guess that this would most likely flop even harder.

I don't think this is a moneyhatting thing, I think this is a "Sega wouldn't Publish it at all" thing.

 

[StevePharma]

Amazing news for Nintendo and Bayo fans like me but will this really sell to the greater public?

Hopefully it will fare better than Bayonetta 1, both for Nintendo, Platinum and the character action genre.

 

[Kokonoe]

Definitely has changed my view of the U.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

HOLD DAT SHIT, SHOCKINGALBERTO

 

[Criminal Upper]

Very angry right now.

It was multi-platform before, I don't see why they decided to fuck a lot of the fans (I want to say most).

Guess its the money, but whatever, eff this.

Your tears give me power.

 

[qizah]

God damn. I need a Wii U.

New Super Mario Bros. U, Pikmin 3, Bayonetta 2, The Wonderful 101 (I like the name actually).

Omg. Can't believe Bayonetta 2 is an exclusive =/.

 

[TWILT]

...Now I'm tempted to get a Wii U.

 

[Chavelo]

Damn, Nintendo is pulling out the GAF pleasers. :O

 

[Keasar]

REGGIE DROPPED DA BOMB!

Time to plan for a Wii-U purchase.

 

[JoeFenix]

Holy shit, think about what this means for Smash Bros. Wii U.

Bayonetta playable confirmed. Dear god and monster hunter on top?

Fucking hell Nintendo!

 

[ohlawd]

I'm going to class with a huge boner.

Holy shit I'm so hyped. My boner won't go down!!!!

 

[Boken]

Jesus, I didn't expect this. My jaw dropped.

Thank the nintendo

 

[Gregorn]

How was this not leaked in any way.

 

[PopcornMegaphone]

On the other hand, the game might not exist without a moneyhat.

 

[V_Arnold]

For P-100 and Bayonetta 2, one can easily justify buying a Wii U, imho. These are not games where you play a few hours and call it a day. No worries here.

 

[DukeBobby]

Bad sequel to awful original on terribad console.

Pass.

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Megaton.
From a multi-platform title to Wii-U exclusive? Didn't expect Nintendo to publish it.

 

[Charoncaori]

I'm CONVINCED Nintendo single-handedly saved this game.

With SEGA the way it is, I don't think they'd be willing to publish it.

I thought I'd never see another Bayo, I'm so excited.

 

[rvy]

i guess they won't have your sale then.

Bye bye, Bayonetta. It was nice while it lasted.

 

[icespide]

what the actual fuck

 

[Akainu]

I was wondering if they could afford this being exclusive but if nintendo is fitting the bill it's not a problem? Too bad I don't care about bayonetta.

 

[StuBurns]

Very angry right now.

It was multi-platform before, I don't see why they decided to fuck a lot of the fans (I want to say most).

Guess its the money, but whatever, eff this.

Sega are out of making big retail games more or less. This makes sense.

And it's still not impossible for it go elsewhere, Ninja Gaiden 2 was published by MS for one year, then it was just a distribution deal, and could go multiplatform. However, I wouldn't hold your breath.

 

[so1337]

WHAT?!

 

[CambriaRising]

To fans of the original game it is. Sega had reportedly canned development of Bayonetta 2. Conceivably Nintendo revived the game, which is why it's exclusive and they are publishing it themselves.

I'm glad it is being made.

But they haven't gained some kind of killer app for the console. Bayo 1 didn't sell very well if my memory serves.

 

[Ledsen]

Very angry right now.

Because now Nintendo publishes the game for them? A pretty huge advantage right there.

 

[Minamu]

Will buy.

 

[Trojita]

Megaton.

 

[Hindle]

I'd say kamiya is working on a new Ip for the next gen. The true sequel to Bayonetta if you will.
