It'll most likely be compatible with the Pro controller, which is pretty much the 360 controller with the PS3's button placements.TehCookie said:

I've never played Bayonetta, but this is an interesting, and potentially good, decision (if there was no chance of it otherwise being published). I like to see healthy competition between the Nintendo, Microsoft and Sony -- it ultimately leads them to give two sods about customers.
Yes the Wii was a sellout.Kleingeier said:
But please take in to account the history.
Nintendo failed 2 times to convince the hardcore crowd with N64 and Gamecube and failed in both of these tries. "Hardcore" gamers back then preferred the consoles who had what back then was considered 'casual' features as cd playback with the PS1,and DVD playback with xbox and ps3. Microsoft and SONY clearly added these feature to make people who only wanted cheap music or movie playback devices to buy their consoles. And don't forget that Nintendo is a videogames only company. If Wii didn't had the success it had,perhaps Nintendo would be broke right now. They had to do something to bring them money. Microsoft indeed took huge risks,and while xbox sold more copies than Gamecube,Microsoft was selling the console below produce costs,and lost hundreds of millions of dollars just so to get the user base. Nintendo couldn't do such a thing because they don't sell other things than games to back up their gaming aspect.SONY is a huge company too,they they have their other divisions bringing fresh money all the time. TVs, computer monitors,hifis,dvd players,cd players,mp3 players..
Nintendo is a strictly video game company which means if their consoles doesn't sell,they are in serious trouble.
Well, we haven't actually seen the game in action yet. And, you haven't played with the controller yet. From pretty much every source I've read I've heard it's still a pretty comfortable controller to play with.TehCookie said:
Yeah I have that same feeling. I'm a PC gamer too, although I did own a Wii when I didn't have money for a PC. I have some weird loyalty to Ninty now, even though I'm probably not going to buy the Wii U I really hope it does well. And I like that they're sticking it to PS3 and 360 users with this game. Always fun to see console gamers do what they complain us PC guys do all the time.poiumty said:
they really are not the same. they are the same genre, and share similarities of most games in that genre, but calling them the same is pretty ignorant. it's like saying cod, halo and battlefield are all the same game, when they aren't.omega 616 said:
OT: bleh, i just hope this exclusivity doesn't last. i have no intention of buying a WiiU no matter how much i loved the first bayonetta. still, i hope for the franchises' sake it does well.
at this point, I'd like to join in with every one laughing at the but hurt fanboys.
this is good though, Nintendo said the wanted the WiiU to attract more 'core' gamers, and this is the way to do it, they just need to KEEP getting games like this in their line up, which can be tricky

COD is a fast paced, arcady shooter.suitepee7 said:
Halo is a slower paced game that lets you take a few shots most of the time, more skill based.
Battlefield is all about team work and a higher sense of realism.
now what are the differences between God of war, DMC, darksiders, bayonetta and Dante's inferno? You play a character who sponges damage, wields a weapon or 2 that a normal person couldn't possibly use (due to size or difficulty), has magic powers, fights demons of some description, might as well not have a ranged weapon.
They have different stories but they have to, as much as they have to have different sounds.
With this announcement, and all the great features I've seen announced, I can't wait to give Nintendo my money. The first Bayonetta was the best action game I've played this gen, and I seriously can't wait to get this game in my hands! I hope we get a release date soon....
