I have a sick feeling that Lego Undercover and Bayonetta 2 will be multiplat soon. First it was Ray-man, then Ninja Gaiden.


since nintendo funded bayonetta 2, there is no way it will be multiplat

 

They funded and published Banjo Kazooie and Tooie too, as well as partially funded and published Razor's Edge, and look where those are. I'd be surprised if Nintendo is funding this is it's entirety rather than a good portion, just as I'd be surprised if Sega didn't sign off on an escape deal where if the game sells below a certain amount, they'll be allowed to bring the game to other platforms after a certain amount of time.

SEGA cancelled the game. Nintendo isnt doing only publishing here, they are funding the development. On the cases you mention, first Rare held the rights for the series and was bough by Microsoft. Tecmo holds the rights of developing and publishing of Ninja gaiden. Razor's edge was a timed exclusive for Nintendo.

SEGA holds the rights for bayonetta series as far as i can tell, but Nintendo definitly holds the rights for Bayonetta 2. I doubt Nintendo would be that daft not to ensure the game is exclusive to them after funding the development SEGA refused to do.
