Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Bayonetta 2 initially in development for Sega, Kamiya says

Soundwave said:
Never going to happen, give it a rest and just play it on Wii U. The game as it exists now was financed by Nintendo, Sega is not going to release some alternate version of the game that was maybe 10-15% complete.

Sega are idiots.

Looking at sales so far, Sega are smarts.


Well, Bayonetta 2 is #3 on the charts over at Media-Create.... But yeah... Looking at the sales of just ONE DAY, Sega sure is smart </sarcasm>

1. #3 sounds really impressive! Less than 39,000 units... considerably less so.

2. That would be two days of sales, just like basically every other new game ever tracked by Media Create.

3. 40-60% sell through indicates that legs are going to be bad to nonexistent.

So in the event that the western release isn't drastically more successful Sega doesn't look too dumb from where I sit, unless it was by not following through on a PS360 release within a couple of years of the original game.



Still think B3 will be on Nintendo.

In the meantime, I will be enjoying B1 + 2 for the first time ever next month...so If you want to relive B1 or experience the sequal - just get a freaking Wii U. It's not hard!



maybe hinting that it will be release on other consoles????? yes i said it! now shoot me!

The game is Wii U exclusive, end of matter. Also 2 days of sales in Japan are not going to define how successful Bayonetta 2 is/isnt going to be, it is a vastly different market. Lets cry doom if it doesnt sell well in the west, the most certain thing is that the game is going to be ace.

1) In one day is not bad.

2) This doesn't even matter. The fact is, there's not enough time to determine this game's success or failure at this point

3) But not on the first day.

Sega has done a lot of dumb things. This is why they no longer manufacture consoles.

It might eventually manage to crawl past Bayonetta's X360 sales. In Japan. That's bad.
