My last bit of immature dick waving before I leave! :D *Read the text in bold below the pictures for why my answer to the OP is yes and how I'm not just criticising Bayonetta 2's visuals to troll but because I'm genuinely not impressed & believe the Wii U could produce better looking games than anything on PS360.

@Zero999 The only impressive thing about GoW3 is some of the enemies? It's one thing to think Bayonetta 2 looks better, it's another thing to downplay how amazing God of War III looks, especially considering it's the developers 1st PS3 game on 7 year old hardware and the game will be 4 years old by the time Bayonetta 2 comes out on a next gen console. Hell maybe it's not fair to compare GoW3 to Bay 2, it even looks better than UC3 and on par with TLoU. Come now, you asked for it,  100% in-game screenshot time! (even though God of War III looks even better in motion thanks to film-like motion blur and great depth of field, both of which Bayonetta 2 doesn't have).

So only some of the enemies look impressive and nothing else? Really? ;D I wonder how many non-bias people would agree that Bay 2 looks better than GoW3? An insignificant minority I'd guess.

I believe God of War III looks significantly better than Beyonetta 2 and its sense of scale is far more impressive (if you still think Bay 2 looks better than either I'm being trolled or you just don't want to accept the truth). If the SSM dropped motion blur & depth of field (didn't notice either effect in the Bay 2 gameplay demo) then I bet GoW3 could run at 1080p/60fps and still look better thus why I believe Bayonetta 2 is doable on PS3 with a talented enough developer and enough time & resources, looking at how visually stunning Castlevania: Lords of Shadow is maybe 360 could too.

Anyway, I'm done now. If someone can look at God of War III and honestly think Bayonetta 2 looks better then I'm not going to waste time arguing with stubborn Nintendo/Bayonetta fans. Also Just because I feel God of War III is a league ahead of Bayonetta 2's visuals I'm not trying to say the Wii U is weaker than current gen HD consoles or that Bayonetta 2 is ugly, not at all, I just think the Wii U is capable of a lot more visually impressive games, Bayonetta 2 should look amazing but honestly it looks pretty much the same as the first game to me just slightly crisper with some light-shafts.

The real question should be can God of War III run on the Wii U?

Just as silly a question really with nobody here qualified to give a definitive answer. I'm out, carry on arguing. :)

At thend of the day, GoW3 runs on a system with less than 500MB of RAM available to games, while Bayonetta 2 is on a system with 1GB available. 

Given the scale of Bayonetta 2's scenes, it's very likely it uses more than 500MB, meaning that in its current state, it simply wouldn't fit into PS3 or 360's memory.

Just because a game runs on a ''more powerfull'' system doesnt mean that the game itself is automatically better looking.
