Yeah, I think you're probably right, but falling out of the TOP20 in the third week is a risky prediction. You will probably be right, but I wouldn't have put anything on the line for that bet. Anyways, we will see how it turns out.

I know! That's what makes it fun!

(I'm considerably more confident in my other bet.)

Yeah, I would be also more confident in the other bet.

lol.

But in all honesty, Sega was involved with B2 as well. There isn't a hidden alternate B2. Sega just decided they didn't want to publish it, so Platinum stopped the work. When Nintendo stepped in and said they would fund it, work resumed. Sega is still part of the end product. It's a Platinum/Sega/Nintendo project.

Sega basically axed their relationship with Platinum Games entirely after Vanquish was released 4 years ago. 

The only reason they are involved with Bayonetta 2 at all is because they hold some copyright claims to the Bayonetta brand, but that's it. 

Platinum does not work with Sega anymore period pretty much. Sega restructured around 2011, basically the only games they make now are Sonic, Total War, Aliens, Soccer Manager, and Yakuza (Japan only).

And Phantasy Star



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

And Shining RPGs. And Hatsune Miku.
