Bayonetta 2 a Wii U exclusive? What? Why? So not only will they abandon those who purchased the first game but they will limit themselves to a userbase just starting and one that is notorious for mostly just sticking to Nintendo games. Not a good move imo.

Not really surprised at the prices. I'll get the premium model for the black system, Nintendoland, and the future discounts. For only $50 more that really seems like the way to go. As for games I'll get New Super Mario Bros. U also and I'm liking P-100.

Unless Nintendo funded Bayonetta 2 it wouldn't be happeneing though? Maybe?

Yeah the thing about Bayonetta 2 was cleared up to me by Vader and someone at GS so I'm glad that Nintendo helped make the sequel happen since I loved the first game. I'll certainly buy the game since I'm getting the Wii U but surely this can't be very pleasant news for fans of the first game who don't plan on getting a Wii U.

Fuck those fans. You're not a fan if you won't buy a system to play the game. I have never in my life said "Oh well I'm not buying THAT system, even if I do think x game is incredible." I mean, how childish can people be?

And this system looks awesome, so you SHOULD be willing to buy it regardless.

I didn't think Bayonetta was all that popular anyway...perhaps building it as a ground up exclusive that takes advantage of the console its on will give it MORE fans? It also helps that its not black & white like Madworld.

I can totally understand Bayonetta fans displeasure at the prospect of having to shell out $360 to $410 just to play the sequel when they would have only had to pay $60 otherwise. Paying that much just to play one game would be ridiculous imo. Just because some people feel there's lots of other great games that make the system worth owning doesn't mean it's the same for everyone.

So take a guess how the Wii U thread at GS is going?

In fact lets play a game, I will take a quote from the thread, you guess what long time member said it (dont cheat, no one who has read the thread can answer) :

Its rather confusing as to why Nintendo would published Bayonetta 2 or why this game is even being pondered or invested in for this system. It is also rather ballsy to release a system like the WiiU at the same price or more than its competitors when its system specs is either same or less. I would truly be entertained by the outcome of the Wii U. Strangely Nintendo has placed itself in a position that is too similar to the competitors with the inclusion of already existing third parties games but at the same time the system is not radical enough to distinguish itself from Sony and MS current offerings. This lack of identity may prove to be problematic for Nintendo and consumers.

Nope but good guess. He actually only said this: Damn shame about Rayman 2. I had been looking forward to it.

Who me? Nyaa Well it wasn't me, it was someone who doesn't post much anymore except to bash Nintendo every now and then.

It's so fun in forums when new consoles get released. I'm looking forward to when the Xbox 720 and PS4 get officially announced. Hopefully they'll be released at the same time. That would be epic. Nyaa

Yikes, amazon uk has the premium for £350 which is 559.64 USD and you guys think you have it bad. Usually, if this follows what happened with the 3DS, some other stores will offer lower prices and everyone else has to match it. Should get cheaper. I will wait. Only problem is that Zombi U black bundle is ltd edition and not even listed so far.
