Forums - Nintendo - Sega Customer Support Thinks Bayonetta 1 And 2 Are Basically The Same Game


A NeoGAF user has asked Sega of America whether the original Bayonetta will be ported to Wii U. A customer support representative replied by saying Bayonetta and its sequel are practically the same game. According to the rep, what differentiates Bayonetta 2 from its predecessor are its two-player mode, Bayonetta’s new hairdo and costume. Read what the rep had to say below:

''The second Bayonetta as you well know is being published by Nintendo exclusively for the WiiU. Both games have been developed by Platinum games. That said, the decision on which version to purchase is really up to you. The games are exactly the same except the WiiU version has a two player mode and the Bayonetta character has different hair and her costume is different.

If those additional features are not important to you, then by all means don’t hesitate to pick up the PS3 or Xbox version.

Good Luck and we hope you enjoy whatever version you decide on.''



Lol, where do they find does people?

That was a fun way to go "lol, no."

That said, it's a bad idea to not do so on both Sega and Nintendo's part. I'm going to have to watch a Let's Play of Bayonetta to get up to speed on the plot. Eager as I am for the game, there's shit i have to know, and no i'm not going to buy a PS3 or 360.

Then ask a friend to make him lending his console to you temporarily.



Or what if he just unintentionally leaked a Bayonetta port for the Wii U?



LOL Wow...looks like that money Nintendo invested really changed things. Well, lets hope for the best outside of two players because in hack n slash these days thats rarely doing anyone any favors.

I don't know how people can play the sequal without playing the first one first, it's odd



I have never played the first, maybe one day I will.

Yeah, I am sure the plot of Bayonetta is important...

If it actually is, they'll add a summary of it to Bayonetta 2.

Yes and no, in different ways. I've been following another fan thread about the game and it brings up various plot points about Cereza/Bayonetta's upbringing and general worldbuilding stuffs. What is Jeanne's pre-existing relationship with Bayonetta, what is the setup for this game? Lots of stuff giong on here.

Really, i dont see why anyone would want the original. It hasnt aged well at all. Bayonetta 2 should be alot better.

I'd recommend reading a synopsis to be honest. The game is less about plot and more LOOKING HOW FUCKING BIG ALL THIS SHIT IS, HAVE WE BLOWN YOUR MIND YET?

Or something like that.

(There is technically a fair bit of plot, but little of great importance.)
