An attempt at diversifying the library. I see no reason to view it as more than that.

I doubt it.

"Please Understand and take a look at B2s credits".

As I said there is an important area where B1 is significantly worse: the difficulty ramp up and settings. These are one of the most difficult thing to "get right" in gaming because it needs skilled testing staff and time...

It is easy to develop for and satisfy gamers which are already familar with the same type of gameplay or genres of gameplay. 

But its really hard to do the same for a broader audience. 

And I can tell you that I never played something like Bayonetta 2 before and the main reason I played B1 thru the end was because of Bayonetta 2. I would never bought that kind of game or genre if not because of trusting Nintendo delivering quality...

Thats why I think Bayonetta 2 will continue to sell well - other gamers think the same way and word of mouth will keep pushing those Wii U owners unsure if it might appeal to them.

Bayonetta is also my first game in the genre. I did not mind the challenge and I'm looking to 100% B2, and replay B1 once more.

It's clear Platinum wanted to broaden the audience with B2. All I'm saying is that B1 was definitely NOT mediocre and almost as amazing as B2. (10/10 for both.)

"they probably looked at God Of War's sales and Platinum's experience in making good games and published Bayonetta 2. There is no other reason why I see them funding Bayonetta 2."

I can think of many reasons and none of them is what you said.

exactly this, i doubt the people who buys nintendo consoles are interested in games like God of War.

Nintendo only published the game they don't own the IP. Are you going to say that Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge was their answer to GoW?

I don't think any of us will argue that Greek Mythology is cool, but that doesn't make God of War a good representation or a good story. If anything, it just shows how GoW piggybacked off of something much better to allow it to get acclaim for its story

God of War is a weak story (and Kratos is a weak character) with some cool lore

Greek mythology is also weak, which is why the majority of them converted to Christianity. God of War didnt tarnish the screwed up nature of Greek mythology, the mythology was already dark,mischevious, incestuous, sexual (in more ways than one including beastiality) bloody and always a struggle for control to begin with. If Kratos was considered a real demi-god or god back in those days he would've been looked at no different than Heracles or Ares. Also being the only demi-god to be allowed to become a full god.

Seriously? What woman (Hera) breast feeds her bastard step child giving him god-like strength and then tries to kill him with serpents as a toddler? Seriously. She knows her husband cheated and gives favor only for it to lead to murder? Heracles as a name in itself means "heras glory" yes...the same child she tried to kill. That whole mythological family was screwed up from Hera and Heracles the way down to Zeus with this father Chronos.

Nope - It was a sign Nintendo can also make games for adults.
