TheWPCTraveler said: Bayonetta 2 (Wii U) ~ 280k after nine weeks from Oct ~ Dec, overlapping with holiday season Bayonetta 2 (Switch) ~ 380k after nine weeks from Jan ~ Mar Both releases were bundled with the original Bayonetta, too. This just puts how badly the original sold on Wii U, imo, but it's great that Bayonetta is getting attention even after the negative impact her meta-changing incarnation in Sm4sh may have placed on her. |
I don't think her being over powered in Smash would affect her popularity especially among the action game loving crowd that's may not even seriously follow Smash Bros.
If anything it may have just pulled some Smash Bros fans into the game to see where her move set originates.
