For PC? Yes, 100k is very good. Especially for a port of a 7 years old character action game
One can only hope for a PS4 port at this time
As for Bayonetta 2 outside of a Nintendo console? Probably never happening and that’s why I’ll never sell my WiiU
Edit: for a better perspective, RE7 with all the marketing and hype was released in January and, according to the same source (Steam Spy), has sold 383k
Ah gotcha. I know developers and publishers need to budget better, but that sounds so low and the Steam discounts make it seem like developers would go broke selling those numbers in comparison to consoles.
Yeah, there’s always that
But those 100k sells were all at 20 bucks, if I’m not mistaken
So maybe it’s an extra push for a PS4 port or maybe, just maybe, a Bayonetta 3… one can only hope
Hopefully Nintendo gets their head out of their ass, and releases bayonetta 2 to the world outside of another soon to be dead console of theirs. They dont even own the ip to Bayonetta too, just the rights to publish Bayonetta 2. Bayonetta 2 for 30 bucks on PC probably wouldve sold 200k by now within the same time frame, just because so many fans didnt bother to drop dime on the wiiU. Might as well cake up on it a bit before sega realizes it needs to invest in this franchise, and heads to Platinum to make Bayonetta 3. Considering Kamiya aint got shit going on right now, it would be awesome to see him take out his frustrations with Microsoft, on making Bayonetta 3 one of the greatest action titles on 3 platforms to ever exist.
Sega needs to do something with Vanquish, Anarchy Reigns, and Bayonetta. Vanquish 2 with multiplayer, and all the bells and whistles for casuals would just demolish its competition, considering IMO Vanquish is the best TPS to date. It just lacked the basics that casuals wanted, but its replay value is through the roof if youre a certain type of non casual player. Anarchy Reigns just needed a better online arrangement, address some balancing issues, but it had all the potential to be a super fun online casual/competitive game, with a super interesting cast of weirdos. Anarchy Reigns 2 could easily be out of this world amazing.
If Bayonetta 2 comes to PS4 or PC, My Wii U will officially become a paperweight.
After the whole fiasco with Microsoft and Scalebound, it would be glorious to have Sony publishing Bayonetta 3 as a PS4/PC exclusive, just like Nier Automata
Crossing my fingers for big surprises at E3
Well we know for a fact Platinum is doing something with Nintendo, but is it a new original game, a sequel to Bayo 2, or a sequel to W101…
Wouldn’t surprise me if they just ported Bayo 2 to the Switch either, especially with the Bayo amiibo coming on July 21st.
I’m not interested in the Switch, but I support anything that can give Bayonetta 2 another chance to be succesful and exposed to more players
Kamiya is always up to something though, as are other developers, producers, etc…
Bayonetta, W101 and Scalebound were all projects that were in some kind of development (proof of concepts) in some manner. I think moreso SB and W101, but development houses always have multiple projects going. It’s not until the deals are finalized, that teams are put together and hype machines are put into motion.
Wouldn’t mind a Bayo3 directed by Kamiya. A Bayo2 on Switch with the weapons from the first Bayo would be beast.
I really missed Sai-Fung when playing the 2nd game.
This clip was posted today with a few others. It’s a one liner, but looped three times.
Is this P* hinting that the Casa de Bayo will be hosting guests for a third time?
I sincerely hope so… Bayo 3 getting announced will have me go buy a Switch with the quickness.
I got a Wii U for Bayonetta 2 and do not regret the purchase.
Never will happen without Nindy signing off on it.
If Platinum rebuilds the game a la Ninja Gaiden Sigma they can bypass needing a sign off by Nintendo.
Kinda doubtful of that though.
Why would they waste time and resources doing that when the whole reason they went to Nintendo is because Sony and Microsoft told them to fuck off in the first place?
I know. Platinum ain’t the type to remake their games.
They can’t its called a breech of contract, Bayo 2 isn’t a timed exclusive. Bayo 2 may as well be stamped with PROPERTY OF NINTENDO all over it.
Nintendo learned their lessons with Rare, they let too many good IPs go into Microsoft’s Dirty hands. Only reason KI exist in the first place is that Nintendo threw money at Rare to make it happen.
Nintendo lack the foresight to make sure that alot of Rare’s Ip can’t go to other systems. Because of that Nintendo is making sure Bayo 2 will never appear on a competitors system.
You don’t know that, your making an assumption. Have you seen the contract yourself or something?
I mean I doubt it will happen, but not due to Nintendo.
