Third party support does not mean exlcusive games, it just means getting the games, which Wii failed to do. Big series like Resident Evil going exclusive to GC just killed its sales, didn't help Nintendo much. Expecting fans to follow onto completely different consoles isn't a smart move.

Im amazed and yet sad at this kind of thinking.

Building further hate is not how you win customers, should not just ignore haters because you are ignoring a huge part of the market, should be winning them over. Nintendo should be getting multiplats while pumping out quality first party hardcore titles, not just Mario or Zelda and other mainstream casual stuff but there own versions of games like Bayonetta.

That way fans of Bayonetta will not hate them even more and instead see other games like Bayonetta that can potentially change their minds on Wii U.

Fans of Bayonetta are fans of Bayonetta. They should play the game where it lands. Also, Nintendo is making it happen for them so they should shut their mouths and say "thank you", and shut their mouths again.

Kinda like what you did for Street Fighter 4? ;)

Perhaps they should be pissed at all the people who failed to support SEGA?

They should be pissed at themselves, at best. If you're such a fan, you should support the game wherever it is... or just accept it and move on.

But in a way we all have mini meltdowns here and there (I may have hoped Capcom to fire Sven a couple of times this last year lol) ... but I just hope I don't cross that line of threatning to kill someone on twitter, lol. Next step after that surely is ceremonial Seppuku!

Now that I think about it, today is all like Ninten-do what Sega don't. :P

So that's what the mayas were referring to...

Not at all, because SFIV was being made regardless :) Bayonetta wasn't. And I was going to buy a 360 for it, as I mentioned to you a few times ;)

This is how you please a fanbase and make yourself liked, Nintendo.

The haters didn't like Nintendo before, nor where they going to buy the Wii U so it's not like Nintendo is losing something here. All in all this will end up well for them as a lot of fans of Bayonetta, and Platinum games in general, will support their console.

Building further hate is not how you win customers, should not just ignore haters because you are ignoring a huge part of the market, should be winning them over.

that's one of the most hypocritical arguments I've ever had the displeasure to read. The valid complaints about nintnedo have always been about third party support. now that they get a few exclusive games, what the fuck do people do? They even try to turn THAT into a complaint.

You know what, Nintendo SAVED this game from the abyss. You want them to cancel it again? Maybe that would shut up these spoiled "hardcore" fans,

True, and Nintendo doesn't even want those "hardcore" fans in the first place. Better leave them somewhere else, they're good for nothing.

You're the one with the double standard. What if this game would have been Vita exclusive, would you argue the same way?

I've made no double standard, if going to throw around silly accusations and least have them be truthful. What you are suggesting is like when Valkyria Chronicles jumped ship from PS3 to PSP. I loved VC, one of my fav games this gen. I wasn't going to to go buy a PSP just for the sequel though and if anything it just turned me off the series with SEGA doing that to VC fans, and I don't even hate the PSP like some Bayonetta fans clearly hate the WiiU. I'm not the only VC fan who feels that way.

VC2 also got graphically downgraded on the PSP. Wasn't that a bigger issue?

Would you rahter have no VC2 at all?

What??!! If i remember correctly, some people were upset about that but most people were pissed that they would need to buy a new system they didn't care for to play the sequal.

Holy shit. When did Bayonetta became such a big deal? It was not that good, it has not sold that good either. I never knew it had such a big... yeah let´s call it fanbase.
Holly shit this is really shocking (no sarcasm here)

So they aren't real fans and have nothing to say to the company that makes the game, it's as simple as that.

The clowns in OP are just stupid and out of their place. It's one thing to mention you're butthurt, another to do what they're doing. Makes you wonder if you want to be pro-democracy in the end. People really are just that stupid.
