Bayonetta 2 announced as Wii U exclusive, console gamers pissed.

[Pearwood]

Fuck it if I get a next gen console it's going to be Wii U because of this. I can't think of a single console exclusive I enjoyed more than the first Bayonetta, everything I've heard about the PS4 has pissed me off and I've heard nothing about the next Xbox.

I've heard rumors about the 720 somehow blocking 2nd hand games on the new xbox there now you've heard something .

maybe i'll get a wii u if it has a normal controller and has enough games i'm interested in i can't get on ps3 or 360 or pc or the ps4 or xbox what ever they call it. which at this point looks about as likely as getting hit by a bus after it does 20 forward flips and go thru the roof of my basement hide out

It does have a regular controller. Look up the ProPad. That, and it works with Wii controllers, too, which means the Classic Controller, in theory, would also work.

that jsut leaves will it have enough games to make it worth getting well i am getting a vita for persona 4 and ac3 liberation so maybe i shouldn't be saying that.

Wii U it is!

Wii U also seems to be the only one with backward compatibility... Oh Nintendo why did I ever doubt you?

 

[Zeraki]

"Pissed"? Surely any console gamer knows that there's a god of war/DMC clone they can play on their system of choice?

lol but they won't have the same story

"unexpected bad shit goes down and you, THE HERO OF TIME AND SPACE, must rectify the situation wearing ridiculous clothing and utilising seriously stupid fighting styles".

-blink-

Wait a second... what you're describing sounds an awful lot like Now THAT would make for an interesting hack n slasher. I can just see The Doctor beating a Dalek to death with its own Eyestalk ala Kratos.

 

[Something Amyss]

They can keep it. I've had my fill of faux feminist empowerment for one lifetime.

All the rage is kinda funny, though.

The exclusive deal doesn't mean it doesn't have a expiration date. For example Resident 4 went onto other consoles later on too. Now the reason for this may be that the Wii U can produce better graphics that the 360 and the PS3 simply cannot due to being so dated. This doesn't mean it won't go on Microsoft and Sony's upcoming consoles. If they made a dumbed down version fro the 360 and PS3 gamers would likely complain about that too.

But of course the gaming community once again shows its lack of understanding and just how childish it is.

what gets me is the fact its Nintendo publishing it so the other system make not have that luck on there side so the time exclusive stuff may not even show up at all

 

[Kimozabi]

Well, that made me buy a Wii U. Bayonetta was my favorite combo based action game, and by something important I'm gonna play the sequel.
Plus, it's from Platinum, and they just make awesome stuff.

And, if Nintendo was in fact responsible for making the game happen, they deserve their console to be bought.

 

[lacktheknack]

Good thing i was planning on getting a WiiU anyway.

I'm on the same boat. Aside from the new Zelda game that is set to released after the WiiU's launch, I'm planning on buying it for Rayman Legends.

Why you ask?

Spoiler: Observe...

Wii U exclusive.

All of my tears. All of them.

 

[lacktheknack]

I'm merely showing your hipocrisy and unintelligent behaviour for what it is.

You are making value judgments on the Wii U based on experience with Nintendo's previous consoles.

I have shown that by applying the same logic to the upcoming consoles of both Sony and Microsoft, your value judgment of the Wii U simply does not make any sense, and that what you say is really just impossible to take seriously considering the hatred you harbor for certain brands.

I love Nintendo, and I also love Bayonetta (unlike you, so you have no buisness posting in this thread in the first place). Does that bother you? It seems like it does. Really shouldn't though.

Sometimes I wonder how sad little poeple like you get through in life without any suicidal urges.

Or do you actually have those?

Do you... like... think before you post, or anything of the sort?

but when Nintendo does something like this and tries to make something that the fans don't expect, then all you hear is "GAH! I hate Nintendo now and forever! You won't see me picking up Nintendo again because they didn't do exactly as I wanted them to do!"

PROTIP: anybody who supposedly loves brawlers and is upset that they will need to purchase a Nintendo console in order to play a video game that will most probably be the new epitome of its genre, and the game every other game in its genre will be compared to; is NOT a true fan of video games; is NOT a true fan of Bayonetta; thusly has no buisness posting in this thread; and was NEVER someone whou would have purchased a Nintendo console in the first place.

In other words: the genre will thrive without those cretins -hell, Nintendo already does-, and Bayonetta 2 will only be played by people with actual love towards video games.

Only people who DESERVE to play Bayonetta 2 will get to play Bayonetta 2.

All's right with the world...

...Apparently not.

At any rate, people around here don't really take kindly to stream-of-consciousness baseless ranting, and also dislike fanboyism, so watch yourself.

Wasnt happy at first, but about 10 mins later i found out that that a new Monster Hunter was coming to Wii U. Therefore when that game hits shelves i must head out and drag a copy to my cave and enjoy it for a week straight.

And here's some of the comments from the article:

Heres something you can edit in instead of mere words.

I am most pleased by this news. A game that was dead in the water after a major publisher (Sega, in this case) passed on funding gets a second chance at life? Nintendo gets a bombshell announcement and a killer 3rd-party exclusive for the Wii U? Nintendo shows the core gaming group that they are willing to throw money at a somewhat-beloved "hardcore" IP that they wouldn't have touched with a 10-foot pole not even 6 years ago? I think everyone really wins in this situation.

Granted, the exclusivity to the system that is a successor to a system that Bayonetta 1 was never on is rather odd and a bit off-putting, but if the choice was between this being the case and Bayonetta 2 never existing at all, I'm sure we can be glad that the game is getting a chance to exist.

Boy, Platinum Games really must be working 24/7 as of late, though, huh? With Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance and Anarchy Reigns set for early next year, and now not one, but TWO high-profile Wii U exclusives in the works with The Wonderful 101 and Bayonetta 2, they have quite a few projects going right now. I'm glad to see more titles from these guys, but damn. What a workload.

 

[Tiswas]

I'd like to see Nintendo port the first one as a downloadable game. That was the argument that 'it shouldn't be on the Wii U because the first one wasn't on the Wii' is redundant.

 

[Tony2077]

its makes me wonder if supporting them was a good idea if they accepted the deal from Nintendo instead of using kick starter or something that makes sense

As long as the publisher does not have the rights to the IP itself then it isn't a issue. Just because Nintendo got the publishing deal which may have been a generous offer to create the game for the Wii U to begin with. The publishing rights likely (actually no doubt it does) have a expiration date just as the exclusive deals. My guess is the development cost was solely on Platinum Games.

unless you can prove this i will doubt that it will ever see the light of day on a system i have or will ever have

 

[Vault101]

The loud part of the gamers are always twats. Reading things like that people are surprised they are being called entitled little idiots.

but not being happy with this is kind of understandable, people toss around "entitled" too much

if they were serious about losing their "kiddy" image then releasing a console with outdated hardware out thr door seems...well I don't know, not to metion its entirly liley they already own those games

not calling it eather way though..that would be silly

 

[Vault101]

You can tell how bad these forums are by the huge amount of Nintendo-haters it harbors.

True gamers have become such a rare thing nowadays...

ah so "true gamer" is measured by how much they like Nintendo?

Nintendo piss me off thease days....scew'em

 

[Baron von Blitztank]

Really doesn't make sense to me. Why make exclusive the sequel to a popular game that was released on two previous consoles from different developers? I guess it's better than not having the game at all but still...

Not too bothered about this. It only seems to be Monster Hunter and Rayman Legends that have caught my eye for the WiiU but with Platinum Games teaming up with Nintendo for this one, I fear that a sequel to Vanquish may be exclusive as well. I don't like the idea of buying a console just for the exlusives (and the other titles that have garnered interest from me can be found on the PS3, a console I already have) so until I hear about the lineup for the PS4 and 720 then I'll pass on the WiiU to serve as my console for the next generation.

I don't know about you, but I'm having Karutomaru flashbacks.

I am now. Oh joy.
