in your irrational fanboy faces! This has been quite obvious since day one really - some people just haven't been able to, or wanting to, realize facts. No surprise really.

it has nothing to do with being a fanboy, fact is, its very rare for anything to say exclusive, microsoft paid 50 million dollars for GTA4 episodic content and that didn't even stay exclusive, i still would bet my money on them being released on 360/ps3 with different names in a year or so after release.

This isn't just a case of "Platinum told Nintendo they'd give them some exclusives." This is "Nintendo paid them for these exclusives". So for as long as Nintendo's business arrangement with Platinum lasts (and I assume it's at least multi-year), W101 and Bayonetta 2 are Wii U exclusives and will be so for quite some time. Likely years.
Now, if Platinum were to make another Bayonetta or a sequel to W101, then there would be nothing stopping them from releasing them on any platform they wanted to. It's just they'd have to find a publisher willing to fund and release the games on multiple platforms. If you'll recall, a couple years ago Platinum tried to do that to get Bayonetta 2 made, but no one was willing to help them out with it. It was canceled. So quite literally, these two games would not exist and would never have begun development if Nintendo hadn't courted them. The caveat being, they are to be Wii U exclusives.
