Forums - Gaming Discussion - Kamiya on Bayonetta 2.

“I think I have discussed this many times before but here goes… First of all, we [Platinum Games] are developers and receive support from publishers by making games that they request or suggest.”

“As for Bayonetta, we developed the game after signing a deal with SEGA. Later it was decided to also develop the sequel, so we started working on Bayonetta 2.”

“When development had progressed to a certain degree, in SEGA’s situation it turned into “This isn’t a good plan”, so development halted temporarily.”

“Without funding we didn’t have the possibility to continue development, but we wanted to get this partially developed Bayonetta 2 available to the public one way or another. So we offered it to various publishers, but as it is a big title, we couldn’t find a partner company. Finally, Bayonetta 2 was about to get terminated completely, when…”

“Nintendo came in and lent a hand and we were able to restart the development we so desired. Finally the game was released last week, so in five years, we were able to make Bayonetta 2 available to the public.”

“Knowing those circumstances, if someone is still angry for heading towards Nintendo, I wonder what’s the reason for that, wouldn’t you tell me in a way that is easy to understand?”

“As I have said earlier, if you want Bayonetta 2 on PS4 or Xbox One, how about trying to ask Nintendo… If Nintendo doesn’t say yes, it’s not going to happen… While you’re at it, try asking for Mario and Zelda too…”

This.

Kamiya is a legend, both in terms of understanding the market and being a great game designer.



Seriously, I'm guessing Kamiya is just really annoyed at this point at three groups of people:
1. Those who keep asking for a sequel to The Wonderful 101
2. Port-beggars (You know who you are.)
3. #GamerGaters.



 
I WON A BET AGAINST AZUREN! WOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

:3

I fail to see the point in this thread. We've have multiple threads and countless discussions on the matter over the last year. Anyone who still doesn't understand the situation surrounding B2 never will.

Well if it wasn't clear before, its definitely clear now.



Waiting for fanboys to bitch and complain anyway =P

1. Go ask Ninty. Then go ask your mom.

2. Blocked.

3. I don't care. Blocked.



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016
