Who cares about Mega Man, especially considering the games you chose came out 18+ years ago.

Revelations was not only a late port on PS3 but also a multiplatform release.

You can thank the rise in popularity of Persona for SMT's success/ awareness. Before Persona 3 I had no clue what SMT was but now that I played the Persona games I bought SMT IV since it was by the same company that made Persona.

Remasters almost never sell more than the original so this comparison proves nothing.

Considering the DS userbase in Japan (where this games target audience is) was about 10 million users larger than the PS2's I'd say this is a draw.

P.S. Last time I checked, Bayonetta 2 is only 7 months old.

Not saying I agree with with the other people but you comparisons are very poor.
