time to declare jihad on nintendo.
anyone with me?
Why Nintendo? Blame Sega. Nintendo did the fans of the Bayonetta series a favor. There’s a high chance it wouldn’t exist if they didn’t pick it up.
I want Anarchy Reigns & Phantasy Star Online 2 localized this year. >:(
Let’s do this.:nunchuck:
Hardcore Nintendo Wii U launch/future titles.
gimmie that list.
Does anyone even know when Bayonetta 2 is being released? I doubt its a launch title, so by the time it comes out, Wii U’s wont be crazy hard to find anymore.
Plus gameplay footage and all that jazz will be revealed, so people can make their decisions then if its a worthy predecessor to the original and worth your time and money.
its a launch title, so it will come out between wiiU’s drop date, and march 2013.
I did say in that vid, “About Bayonetta 2… We will have to see about that.” keyword: We. you all see what I thought might happen; just not in this context of as an exclusive.
My negro senses were on point this time, still. I knew something was up soon as I saw that P-1000 game.
Other than that, I’m waiting some more. Not shelling out cash for a new console just to play one game especially at this point of next gen consoles is concerned whether I’ll potentially love the game or not. I bought Bayo in late 2010 so don’t think I can’t wait. I’ still squeezing every penny out of my PS3 and even if Bayo2 is ported to PS3/PS4 or whatever, I’m still going to be waiting. I never buy launch consoles at launch nore dose one game make me buy a system. That only worked when I first played SF2:WW on SNES.
Nintendo is the great grandfather to this video game shit so I have no beef with them making power moves to get “AAA” titles. I just feel it’s too little too late as an current business scheme, but I really hope that I’m wrong while they continue to prove me wrong by getting even more AAA titles. I really want to be wrong about the WiiU but where’s the goods at? I’m still waiting. This console comes off more of a “PS2 Slim” than a next gen console. I’m tired of that.
If Bayo2 does “well” for WiiU then I’ll be cheering them on. That “other stuff” is irrelevant at this point and doesn’t contribute to my decisions as a consumer. I rather see better games go to better consoles BUT WiiU hasn’t showed me anything other than this exclusive and P-1000 so I am slightly confused as to why PG thought they only had SEGA and NES as publishers. I’d rather see them try to merge with an existing publisher and start to do their own thing while doing projects FOR others like Kojima. But whatever. My hype meter is at 1/10 until further notice.
VGChartz isnt a very accurate source. Page 5 on this document is however http://www.segasammy.co.jp/english/pdf/release/1003hosoku_e_final.pdf and according to this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_video_games the game didn’t break the 1 million mark on either format. However my bad for saying 350k as a figure as it was just someone on GAF who posted that, I shouldn’t have posted that.
That number is in the thousands. That would be 1,350,000 sold. It’s not in the wiki link because that’s a combined 1mil+ on 2 platforms.
I just want to add that Wii’s development cost are insanely low. It’s probably has the development cost as a PS2, and that means the developers get more revenue than you would making a next gen game.
So it’s true that Madhouse,House of the Dead, Overvkill, Conduit,etc “failed”, but it’s not like they failed as hard as they would on a PS3/Xbox360
So it’s not THAT bad for any of those mature rated game in the Wii. Now if history repeat itself, then there would be a HUGE problem with the Wii U sales.
Wut?
Launch title means a game is available to purchase day one of the wii u’s release.
I seriously think this game isn’t coming out until around E3/Summer time.
Mario i can believe is a launch title along with Nintendo Land because theres box art for it, screenshots, gameplay footage, ect.
Bayonetta 2 has nothing but a 10 second CG rendered modified trailer of the original. Thats not convincing at all that the game is anywhere near completion.
People also dont understand that the xbox 360 and ps3 development costs have killed off smaller devs like PG(hmm any1 else think that is why sony or micrsoft didnt put their own money into this game). The next gen of PS and xbox dev costs are going to be much higher because of the insane power boost that the rumors are having you believe. This means that if PG had the money to release Bayo2 on the next PS and xbox. That would be all they released since all of the “fans” still wouldnt buy it and they would die off like many of the others. I believe only the biggest devs will be able to survive the next gen of xbox/ps. People who are true fans of PG and other small devs should be happy with nintendo and should be happy if other small devs go with nintendo.
neogaf has a thread on the number of studios that have closed down since 2006. Needless to say it’s a pretty big list.
Stop right there. This is complete and utter bullshit and you know it. This in line with blind fanboyism.
The fuck you talking about Nintendo was ALWAYS about family friendly! Shits no different than Disney. First console was called Famicom…Family Computer. Only reason things were good was gaming then was a simpler time and there weren’t many competitors to deal with, no envelopes to push and hardware limitations and no one cared.
Sadly like many things times have changed and gaming was acceptable by everyone now…so now an image must be portrayed.

Snes appealed to a broader scale that’s about it. The push for cartridge technology was one of their worst decisions to date. Not as bad as virtual boy but bad enough to lose franchises that made the snes awesome like final fantasy and street fighter. Anyway move all discussions about Nintendo/WiiU to the WiiU thread.
Bayonetta 2 will probably come out next year if things go well.
As a long time Nintendo fan, I was absolutely thrilled to see Bayonetta coming to the Wii U. I already planned on buying a WiiU eventually for the Nintendo games like Pikmin and Smash Bros. , but I always thought my number third party games were lacking, and it’s even cooler that Nintendo chose to fund this project. With this and the constant rallying for third party support, Nintendo is not messing around.
Will this game be successful on the WiiU? That’s a really good question. Nintendo’s been doing a lot of advertising for their games for the last few years, but this is the first time they will be supporting an M rated title, but they are looking to diversify their audience so this should be interesting to see.
You stop. All the people hating that the game is on the wii u are talking about millions of fans are being stabbed in the back when barely a million copies of te game sold. How would this be complete and utter bullshit, I would think that if you were a fan of a dev you would like to see them survive and make more games but hell what do I know. I am thinking logically here and I am forgetting that this is the internet.
Sigh Madworld to this day still gets overlooked.
Madworld has much more M rated content in the game than Bayo 1,2 & 3 and those games haven’t even come out yet.
Edit: If you mean directly supporting then you may have a point.
It was stated it would be out by March at the latest, will it get delayed beyond that? possible but unlikely considering it’s to Nintendo and PG’s benefit to have Bayonetta2 be available as close to Wii U launch date as possible to maximize sales and exposure. Lots of people buying Wii U will have no idea what Bayonetta is and to establish the brand to the biggest demographic gaming has ever known means to get a positive word of mouth spreading as early as possible.
Also Nintendo went on record making a commitment to not be dicks to 3rd party developers like they were with the Wii, we’re already seeing a good amount of third party support on 3DS.
