* [WiiU] Bayonetta 2 - 38,828


wow,. bayo 2 did pretty good all things considered.

Sarcasm detected.

OT:

Youkai watch is such a beast.

X1.. What is the floor?



Around the Network

So with a lower user base the X360 sku of Bayo 1 opened to almost double the Wii U Bayo 2 sku. Maybe Hideki Kamiya should stop telling fans to "F*ck off" on Twitter. :)

So even with a new exclusive game Wii U lost to PS4?

Big but very short spikes for hardware in Japan this generation, such a volatile market this has turned out to be. Bayo 2 not giving the amazing boost some seemed to believe it would, the effect is likely to be even smaller in the West. 100k first week globally and 300k lifetime?

joking?



How many days off bayo is that? I hope it released on the 21st and we have better numbers next week hopefully.

dear mummelmann tell me about your predictions when wind waker hd(1m+ ltd) sold 30k first week in japan and didn t gave boost to wii u ther!(but 7k pre week in usa and in the week of release 6k,europe 22k week of release,row 2k pre week and week of release 3k)?


Zelda and Bayonetta 2 are two different beasts though, there was never any grounds for believing that Bayo 2 would do very well globally or in specific regions. As for predictions; I don't recall making any for Windwaker HD and I honestly had no idea how it would be recieved.

A well known, flagship franchise that Nintendo have released for thirty years cannot compare to a semi-niche title in a semi-niche genre on a completely unproven platform. If someone were to release the sequel to ZombiU or Wonderful 101; there would be no reason to expect high sales either. These are not very good numbers for Bayonetta 2 and lifetime sales will likely fall very short of many expectations. I guess we'll see over the next few weeks how it does; if the holidays can't help it move along, nothing ever will.

Almost bomba territory if you ask me. Didn't even reach Bayonetta 1's 360 launch numbers (66k)

Even with Fatal Frame next week, I think PS4 will still be above the U.


ps4 dropped by 15k last week and you expect it to outsell wii u this week which has a new game...

Yeah it dropped after the Destiny launch. Why should we assume the Wii U will get a boost from Fatal Frame? If anything it'll stay consistant with this week.



Won bet with t3mporary_126 - I correctly predicted that the Wii U's LTD at the end of 2014 would be closer to 9 million than 10 million. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6673287

Why would that be a joke, Zero999? Back for more single word posts I see.

Sure Bayo 2 didn't sell that well, but certainly much better than TW101 -- almost more than 2x as much. And also better than estimates from the Tsutuya game sales ranking

w101 only did 5k first week in japan. bayo 2 did over 7x better.



XB360 + XBO over 1,4K, impressive.



...Let the Sony Domination continue with the PS4...
