...Yeah, this is annoying. Really annoying. I'm getting the next Xbox and the PS4, and there's no way in hell I'll be able to fork out for the Wii-U as well, and I really wanted to play a Bayonetta sequel. Even if I could, I'm not getting one just so I can play Bayonetta 2.
No money for you here, Platinum.

The first Metal Gear wasn't on the Nintendo 64, but they still made the remake a Gamecube exclusive. The first Perfect Dark wasn't on the Xbox, but they still made Perfect Dark: Zero an Xbox 360 exclusive. All the games in a series don't have to be on one publisher's consoles for a new game to be viable. I'm sure there are many other examples.

People shouldn't rage at Platinum they just design the games. SEGA is the publisher and is in charge of releasing them. That's why Anarchy Reigns wasn't released in July in NA even though the North American Release was finished. By the way, dick move SEGA.

I fucking loved the first Bayonetta. LOVED it! One of few games that I can still play through from start to finish and not get bored at a single part. This seriously fucking sucks.

Aren't both of those games remakes and not sequels though? Kinda different.

Yeah I'm annoyed actually. Seems like a strange move, in my opinion.

Yeah, quite gutted. The first game was one of my favorites of the generation; I won't be buying a Wii U so...hrr.
Ah well, there'll be plenty of Let's Plays, eh:].

Perfect Dark: Zero was a sequel. Albeit it sucked, but at the time people wanted it. And still, my point stands. Loads of games have had a console exclusive sequel, and exclusives sell systems. Why get angry over something EVERYONE has been begging Nintendo for for years? Third party exclusives!

Good on Nintendo. Another reason to get a WiiU then. I need to play more of the first one, but what I have played was really good.

You'll see in a few months Nintendo will be catering to the family audience only again, and Bayonetta 2 reviews' only negative aspect would be it's on the WiiU. Nobody wins.
Jesus, where did this impression that Nintendo consoles only have kiddy games come from?

Did you not play No More Heroes? Madworld? Muramasa? Dead Space Extraction? Metroid bloody Prime?
It's a majority, really. There are more kiddy games on the Wii then Mature games.

Oh... you mean they're doing the same thing... that all the other consoles do? Get exclusives? That people want?

OH WAIT, it's NINTENDO, so this move is twice as bastardish as it would be for any other company because waah waah PS3, waah waah 360 waah waah casual console for kids unlike the one I PICKED.

I can understand the rage. I can't think of any franchises that went exclusive in their core line of games after having been multi-platform. It's a win for Nintendo in any case.
It sure as hell ain't a win for anybody who supported Bayonetta who don't have plans on getting a WiiU ever or anytime soon.

People aren't annoyed that it's an exclusive. People are annoyed that it's a sequel that's an exclusive. If this was the first game then the reaction would be along the lines of a shrug of the shoulders along with a "Huh, would've liked to try that. Too bad".

Which is why I left out ninja gaiden in the first place, although wall running isn't exactly the greatest innovation. Throw shurikens? No, you're right, they can't ... however, kratos has a magic bow, Dante (inferno) has white crosses, Bayonetta and DMC Dante has guns.

Slower paced? It's barely noticeable ... In fact, I don't notice it. Kratos can't block? Well shucks, after playing GOW 3 (and watching 2)I have used the golden fleece to block. Range isn't much of a factor, if a factor at all ... in GOW you have to fight ogres and in ninja gaiden 2 you have to fight big pink demons, both similar size, then there are the fodder which just swarm you ... so range or no range, there is no real difference there. If you want to take it as a win for your argument go ahead but I am not convinced.

Oh, yeah ... DMC, making an already easy genre easier. Timing of the button presses might be important to people who like score attack games but when you can complete the game just pressing it as fast as you can, this point is kind of worthless.

Please, write this essay. Might have something in it that makes me give any credit to what your posts are saying.

You think I give a flying fox what anybody on this forum thinks of me? You can believe I am the most delusional, ignorant, arrogant ass (plus any other words you can think of) that wont effect me or my opinion ... it's like being insulted by cleverbot to me.

Huh, I can not be bothered to react adversely to this revelation.
I simply do not care.
And now I shall play DMC3 again.
