Bayonetta 2: Developers Explain Why They Sided With Nintendo

[MikeRox]

I don't think Nintendo threw money at Sega for Bayonetta 2, Sega have all but confirmed they are abandoning physical retail releases barring their biggest franchises and going primarily digital. I think Bayonetta 2 was a casualty of this and Nintendo saw a near finished title that they could get fairly cheap that had a fairly solid install base.
