I don't get it.


PG's games never sell well when multiplatform, that's the irony.

Fixed for you

OT: it'll be interesting to see what they have in store this E3.

Still sold more than on wiiu


Collectively maybe individually not really, Bayonetta 2 for example outsold all versions of Vanquish and Max Anarchy, it hasn't outsold the original Bayonetta but then again it's not in bargain bins 9 months after release while the original was in bargain bins with in weeks. The 360 version of Vanquish has barely sold more the W101 and in the case of MA Bayonetta outsold all versions combined.

also I'd like to add, if we look at multiplat sales now they are generally good despite the two having much smaller sizes compared to last gen, Bayo 1 sold piss poorly between two platforms that had huge install bases from last gen which was no excuse at all, people can call on Wii U but it won't stop me from calling on PS3/360 for failing despite the large install bases, there's just no excuse.

That's a good point, a userbase of near enough 10m against two combined userbases of at the time was around 60m, the ratio is better on the Wii U.

Nope, if something is on bargain bin level then its bayonetta 2.

You can even buy the collectors edition of bayonetta 2 for the same price like on launch. Its 80€ on amazon, new

This post makes no sense at all, B2 is not in bargain bins, do you know what is even meant by bargain bin? Bayonetta was around £10 with in weeks of release, 80 Euros is around £65, that's more then full price of a new game around £20 more, if the collectors edition is that price then you've proved my point.

Bayonetta 2 is still full priced everywhere. 

Do you understand what hitting the bargain bin means? It doesn't mean retaining its value, it means the value decreased.

Exactly, which was why when we look back on it at the time it sold so poorly, hell there were some multiplats that sold better back then compared to Bayo 1 so the install base was definitely active and thus why I think there is aboslutely no excuse as to why it didn't sell well, I feel it being on Wii U gives Plat more of a chance with it, if they kept on making multiplats to tank every time with large user bases then it will only crush them sooner, it's better for Ninty to foot the bill and keep it on their system as it's already been proven that a combined userbase of 60m wouldn't support them, if they didn't back then at the highest I expect the same to happen, the argument for PS4 mostly these days is "you can't ingore it;s huge userbase" and et it had a large one last gen with the 360 and B1 sold poorly.

Because userbase is largely irrelevant when talking about non-mass market products. If the PS3/360 had half the number of sold consoles, it wouldn't proportionally decrease sales (if at all).

I'd say it's probably just DLC or an expansion For bayonetta 2. However it would be nice if it were a new game. For the moment I don't see the connection between this and the Unnanounced game that IGN will be revealing.
The team behind bayo said back in 2014 that they would like to see more bayo content in 2015 so
