I may not know all the technicalities of the game, but it was made by a 3rd party developer. I guess it would be a second party game made by a 3rd party developer? Either way its still a good game, and that's all that matters.


Nintendo doesn't own the IP, it's not 2nd party. It's a founded/published 3rd party game with some exclusivity deal.

It's not just an exclusive deal, it was produced and published by Nintendo. It's effectively a Nintendo game.

Nintendo doesn't own the game more than microsoft own the first mass effect (or ryse or sunset). They just funded and published it. They didn't but the IP.


Bayonetta 2 is a Nintendo game. Bayonetta as an IP is from SEGA. Final point.

They should go ahead and buy the IP. They bought the Fatal Frame IP I believe, why not Bayonetta. I think Sega washed their hands of Platinum Games years ago so I doubt they care.
