You're the one with the double standard. What if this game would have been Vita exclusive, would you argue the same way?

I've made no double standard, if going to throw around silly accusations and least have them be truthful.  What you are suggesting is like when Valkyria Chronicles jumped ship from PS3 to PSP.  I loved VC, one of my fav games this gen.  I wasn't going to to go buy a PSP just for the sequel though and if anything it just turned me off the series with SEGA doing that to VC fans, and I don't even hate the PSP like some Bayonetta fans clearly hate the WiiU.   I'm not the only VC fan who feels that way.

That was different, because it was clear any VC game on the PSP was going to be lower budget/lower production values (which was most of their reason for doing it, alongside the fact that the PSP was more viable in VC's main market, Japan), which means that the second and third games were lesser games than they could have been.

The double standard (which i haven't seen from you specifically, but from this situation in general) is that when Nintendo gets multiplats, people are all "meh, why buy for the Wii U when you can just get it elsewhere?" but when Nintendo gets an exclusive (and lets be honest here, Bayonetta 2 is pretty damn low on the totem pole for exclusives Nintendo could steal) it's all "suicide" and "this isn't how you make fans, Nintendo."
