In fact, had it been a multi-platform title that skipped the Wii U, many of the people championing it now would be downplaying it instead, telling us that it's merely another immature title that glorifies sex and violence. There is no doubt in my mind about that. None at all. |
If only we had an alternate reality where Bayo 2 went multiplatform. We could compare this reality against the alternate one and confirm your suspicions. The fact that we can't won't stop you from making such foolhardy predictions.

pokoko said: Really, where was all this indignation when Bayonetta 1 was losing to Red Dead Redemption and Mass Effect 2? |
I don't know, how were you measuring it then and how are you measuring it now?

pokoko said: The reality is that nothing has changed because Bayonetta 2 is a Nintendo exclusive. No one is NOT voting for it because it's only on the Wii U. Exactly as with Bayonetta 1, people are declining to vote for Bayonetta 2 because they feel the narrative and characterizations are weak, or because they don't like the goofy style, or because they don't value hack 'n 'slash titles highly, or simply because they received a deeper, more fulfilling experience with other games. People declined to vote for it because of any number of valid reasons. |

Certainly.
