I'd bite if Sega released compilations on the eShop. Ghost Squad, Ghost Squad Evolution and Operation G.H.O.S.T for like $20-$25?
Sign me up. Day -1.

It is. Reggie stated MH Tri Ultimate is a part of the 50 titles coming to Wii U in the launch window from the 18th of November untill March 31st.

Now now, Sonic Generations was good and Sonic 4 ep. II was OKish (Ep. I and Ep. Metal are both trash though). Sonic Colours is supposedly good too.
MH3 Ultimate as a launch window game is awesome. But you know what's even more awesome? The prospect of a full fledged MH3 sequel for the Wii U with all new, beautifull graphics (like true next-gen). How are the chances?

Of course we have also take into account that some of these may be delayed, on the other hand something unannounced may spring up in the meanwhile.
You will buy Monster Hunter 4 HD and like it

Tri was good enough for me, so an up-port from 3DS is just what I wanted all along, besides I would have been actually contented if it had been releasing on Wii.

Wii U Japanese launch games thread's OP claims Wii U fit to be scheduled for spring 2013.

Spring next year? I think it falls within the "Launch Window."

Low. Very, very low. Look how well the franchise sells in Japan with PS2-ish visuals. Then look at how Dragon's Dogma sold.
So let's talk Smash possibilities; Kamiya's been giving coy responses on Twitter and Sakurai was seen sneaking into their building, so a lot of people are assuming Bayonetta will be a lock for SSB4. I seem to recall that Sakurai had a "no guns" rule, which is why Snake was confined to mines and explosives.
I'm not convinced that you can do Bayonetta justice without guns. Could Sakurai make an exception this time?

Surely that's no realistic guns? As in ones firing bullets.

No reason to take Kamiya's "sure, that'd be fun I guess" Tweets as anything more than they are.
If any P*'s gonna be in Smash it'd probably be someone from Wonderful 101.

I'm one of the most dedicated Kingdom Hearts boycotters around.
I'm boycotting 80% of games released. Take that everyone!
The dialogue is so (wonderfully) cheesy but the lines are perfectly delivered. That actress (I forget her name but she's barely in anything else) absolutely sells it. There's no room for self doubt, and she nails it.

This.
The Wonderful 101 is actually owned by Nintendo and could be worked in, in tons of ways from assist trophys all the way to PC's.
I see no reason to honestly belive that Bayonetta would suddenly take up a slot, even less so when Sega already likely has a guest in the form of Sonic.
Truth be told, I always found that Smash stipulation funny when we've got blaster guns, arm cannons, various explosives, telekinetic shockwaves, and general slapstick items. They couldn't even go the anime/cartoon route and make them shoot "shock bullets/censor bullets?"
That falls under explosives. His down smash is also a rocket launcher.
Those are lasers.
Guys, I'm not making this shit up. Sakurai said it himself.
She has a sword and shit. It's cool.

could just have them shoot lipstick.
have they no shame?
Forget Guns. How would you even begin to do justice to Bayonetta's entire moveset, within the confines of a Smash moveset? I just don't see it without her being a mere shadow of her normal self.
At most, I say make her an Assist Trophy, so she won't have to be limited in this manner. Meanwhile, a character like the Lead Red from Wonderful 101 will probably be much suited to fit in such a game, if they were really in the business of putting a P* character in Smash.

While I dig my Smash Bros. and all, some of you are way more excited simply about the prospect of playing as Bayonetta in Wii U Smash then the fact that there a sequel to one of the best pure action games of this generation coming out.
Come on.
Come on.

I always make good choices.
Despite the fact I don't think she has a shot, there is good reason for people to jump to Smash. Given how well Bayo did, featuring her in Smash even if you hate Smash would do nothing but help her and her game given what will likely be 8 million or more eyes ending up viewing her over and over.
Can only help her sell and maybe get more games from the series made.
Dude, we've had 5000 posts to be excited about Bayo 2 existing. Speculating about other things now is understandable
Bayonetta has a very strong hardcore fan base and brand awareness, but not too popular enough to make it expensive to purchase (the property's exclusive right). Kinda similar to Fatal Frame and Xeno-series.
It won't set Nintendo's sale on fire, but when put all niche properties together it will help Nintendo build up a hardcore fan base that their mascots (Mario, Kirby, Link etc) cannot offer.

This was probably already mentioned - unless I missed it (which might very well be the case): After every Japanese Nintendo Direct, there's a ton of copyright notices for every game shown. And there is a copyright notice for The Wonderful 101 - but there's no mention of Bayonetta whatsoever...!?
Like I said, it's possible I simply missed it, but if I didn't, that strikes me as quite odd. Every other title is there as far as I can tell. I doubt they forgot to add just this one game. And there's nothing in the actual trailer, either. Is it possible Nintendo outright bought the whole IP? The copyright would give it away, and it seems strange that Sega is just an "advisor" - as if Nintendo or Platinum needed advise from those guys..

Which would be true, except that it happened a bunch almost as soon as the announcement was made. My point is that there seems to be a contingency of people that are more excited about bolstering Nintendo's IP portfolio for Smash then the actual game itself. Excitement for the two aren't mutually exclusive sure, but it's annoying now that any somewhat exclusive title for a Nintendo system is automatically vetted for inclusion into Smash Bros.
Something like Bayonetta 2, a new Fatal Frame, and a new Monolith IP in the first 2 Qs of 2013 would be a strong start for the Wii U in terms of smaller, but strong franchises that could do well with the extra exposure of Nintendo-publishing in the start of a generation.
None of this will happen.
