Nintendo is going to take the financial hit for Bayonetta. They need diversity. A platinum games title isn't going to have very much success on one console and least of all its on a console with consumers who don't regularly support third party. Nintendo put Bayonetta on life support because Nintendo and western devs havent seen eye to eye in years. Ubisoft tried to help Nintendo and couldn't turn a profit on their exclusive for the U with Zombi U. 


Bayonetta 2 comes with great marketing and great value. It also has the benefit of pulling in others that normally wouldn't get a Wii U, they may even take the plunge and buy some other software.

 

Zombi U is a terrible example though. It was a launch title with poor marketing. If it had been released now it probably would sell pretty well.
