dear mummelmann tell me about your predictions when wind waker hd(1m+ ltd) sold 30k first week in japan and didn t gave boost to wii u ther!(but 7k pre week in usa and in the week of release 6k,europe 22k week of release,row 2k pre week and week of release 3k)?

Zelda and Bayonetta 2 are two different beasts though, there was never any grounds for believing that Bayo 2 would do very well globally or in specific regions. As for predictions; I don't recall making any for Windwaker HD and I honestly had no idea how it would be recieved.
A well known, flagship franchise that Nintendo have released for thirty years cannot compare to a semi-niche title in a semi-niche genre on a completely unproven platform. If someone were to release the sequel to ZombiU or Wonderful 101; there would be no reason to expect high sales either. These are not very good numbers for Bayonetta 2 and lifetime sales will likely fall very short of many expectations. I guess we'll see over the next few weeks how it does; if the holidays can't help it move along, nothing ever will.

oooo for god's sake i do not compare them ;) simply i disagree to take japan as an indication for bad or good sales in the west and i suggest to wait for the western release,if it also fails there then feel free to call it a flop:P
