Just forgot something.
The original Bayonetta was X360 and PS3 "exclusive" as there was NO Wii version.
Given the sales numbers Sega decided not to finance a sequel and all other publishers besides Nintendo did too.
This just means that there are not enough gamers appriciating games like Bayonetta on the XBox and Playstation consoles to make a valid business case.
Its that simple. NOT ENOUGH GAMERS buying a possible 9/10 or 10/10 title on XOne and PS4.
The sales numbers of Bayonetta 2, the re-release of Bayonetta 1 and the superb "First Print" edition show that there ARE ENOUGH GAMERS on the WII U.
This is not going to be unnoticed by Thirds. We will see the fruits of this NIntendo investment in 2 years or more as developing games needs some time. The publishers investing their money where the buyers are - if those are not the "big" ones, I don't care. Even those will follow as soon they can make up a valid business case.
