Pretty sure Sega would prefer to hold onto it.

...why?

I don't know, my guess is maybe they'll be able to do something with the IP one day.

So not sure at all then...?

I'm just thinking maybe all the uproar following the Bayo2 exclusivity could lend the IP a new breath of life?

The Cartmanland effect.

For a niche game on a niche console this is very impressive. I hope Nintendo at least offers to buy the IP from Platinum.

Pretty sure Sega would prefer to hold onto it.


Why? it's a niche title?

Video games are niche compared to movies and music.

2017 will be a fun year for you then...

I could see a price cut happening before then. Especially if the rumored GamePad revision is real. Then we could possibly see a cut this year.

Good to hear it... I thought I'd be playing smash more but I find myself mostly playing Bayo 2 and Dark Souls 2

Video games are niche compared to movies and music.

And the USA is small compared to Russia. What's the point?

Very good news for Nintendo and Platinum. The Wii U's software library is looking more and more appealing to me, I will eventually purchase one when the price drops to accompany my PS4.

I can wait :P Right now the game library is not quite there in terms of quantity and the price in Australia is quite high for what you get.


Well is the PS4 library there yet either though...?


Right now my PS4 library consists of:

The Evil Within(not on Wii U)
Alien Isolation(not on Wii U)
Call of Duty Advanced Warfare(Not on Wii U)
Destiny(didn't like it, played it once)
Infamous Second Son(Not on Wii U)
Killzone Shadow Fall(Not on Wii U)
Tomb Raider Definitive Edition(Not on Wii U)
Assassins Creed Unity(Not on Wii U)
Assassin's Creed Black Flag
Infamous First Light(physical edition, not the PS + version)
Watch Dogs
TLOU:R(Not on Wii U)
Far Cry 4(Not on Wii U)
Battlefield 4(Not on Wii U)

So out of the 14 PS4 games I own, the vast majority are not on the Wii U. I also cannot think of ten games I would buy right now if I purchased a Wii U. So he PS4 game library is much more appealing to me for now :) I know most of the games I own are not PS4 exclusive(as they are multiplatform and also on X1) but I don't think the X1 has much more great exclusives either. So out of all 3 consoles, the PS4 appealed to me most.

Just because something is niche doesn't mean it can't be successful.

Wouldnt really call it a niche title tbh...

Nintendo probably wont buy the IP. Only time Ive see that happen is with Gears Of War...

Bayonetta 2is not a flop and it will make 1M before May and I'm positive Bayonetta 3 will be a Wii U exclusive
