Have you changed your mind on if Bayo 2 will flop?

I always believed it'd do amazing 81 26.13%
 
I changed my mind at some point 13 4.19%
 
I still have my doubts, but it may do alright 113 36.45%
 
Sorry, I still think it'll flop 100 32.26%
 
Total:307

I've always believed that Bayonetta 2 would be amazing but not sell well. People need to accept Wii U is a niche machine and that some of its best titles will never find a large audience.

I per-ordered the game months ago. I played the demo 50 times. I always comment in threads on it. And I still say it will do bad. I can't see it doing good. Like with W101 dying for no reason. Nintendo is just in a bad position no matter what.



With the definition you provided then I'll say it'll flop.



I think it will sell great.

My demo had a limited number of play times.  :(

 

I only wanted to play it once, though.  Had to see how it was going to look on my TV.

I played it multiple times without shutting the game off.



Thank god quality doesn't equal quantity because I'm pretty sure it will flop compared to other big name titles.
I'd say 800K lifetime would be a decent expectation. It will definitely pass half a million this year, though.
I'd be surprised by anything more.

It will get released, drop out of Top 15 the very next week, and within a month be forgotten by all except some WiiU fans and critics when considering GOTY.
It has a very good chance to win GOTY, which could then give it a second life. But without a solid award performance, it will flop...


took the words out of my mouth i am really hopping if it flops at first but ends being a multi GOTY award winner from major sites that could revive its sells.



I'm getting it. If it does flop in sales, I'm gonna throw it in everybody's face. I'll even LIE about how great it was. This game is going to have mythical status!



I always knew it would "flop", but I was never sorry about it.
