Man, if he didn't like the Bayo1 numbers he'll hate the Bayo2 sales :P

With the audience of the WiiU and the amount of consoles currently sold I'd say anything above ~150k sales in the first month and 500k LT is a success...

The audience of wiiu?  It's not hitting mainstream anytime soon..Will be a core audience for some time. I've never met a casual who's heard of it.

It is Nintendo-Core, that's a difference.Games like Bayonetta don't tend to sell very well to this audience.

Nintendo core buys exclusives though.   They typically don't buy multipats because Nintendo core also owns more powerfull systems. But I think Bayonetta does alright on Wiiu.  Not as well as on Bayonetta 1 but decent compared to what something like DMC would have sold had it been ported to Wiiu.
