The fact that they're bundling the first one proves the opposite. They got Bayo 2 because they wanted Bayo fans. If they thought they'd get them, there would be no need to bundle in the first game. They'd just sell it separately.

I see it selling 600K lifetime. I'm being generous.

Source, please.

I don't need a source. That's the whole reason why companies buy exclusives.

You do realise that The Wonderful 101 came first, right? And it's not that Nintendo bought an exclusive, it's that Nintendo chose to fund the game because nobody else was. In other words, they got Bayo 2 because they saw potential, they already had a relationship with Platinum (who brought the idea to them) and all of the third-party publishers were too risk-averse.
