How does it feel to know that the character is now most popular on Nintendo platforms?
>>
I'm glad it sold well. I hope it's a series that has a future.

Fine because I own the game.

That's awesome. It's one of my fav games ever, i'm glad.

I'm glad. I own a Wii U and 12 games for it that are all fun, so I got my money's worth. Bayonetta 2 is a legitimate 10/10.
>>
Nintendo gave her a pretty good treatment, to the point of making her the most overpowered character in Smash. I hope they will help create a third one.
>>
Very glad, Bayo 1 is my favourite game of all time, Bayo 2 somewhere in my top 10.

But as >>336480359
said, the chance of a sequel is low, sales are mediocre when compared to average game sales

So you like pointless backtracking? Good to know.

DMC is not and has never been a relevant franchise. People liked it because of Dante's design, that's it. It pales in comparison to other games in it's genre, including Ninja Gaiden and Bayonetta, and at this point has far more crap installments than ones that fans like. Seeing people praise DMC2 when DmC came out really put this into perspective for me.

It was the Dark Souls of the early 2000's. People pretended to like it because it was 'challenging' but never had the talent or patience to learn how to play the much better games in the genre.

If DMC, the series that innovated the stylish action genre and repeatedly outsells Bayonetta, is irrelevant than what does that make Bayonetta?
>People liked it
People still like it, it still beats Bayonetta's sales by orders of magnitude. Hell, It's HD re-releases sold more than Bayonetta ever has.
And to top it off you're posting Nintendoâ„¢ reaction images. But somehow I'm the one posting low-effort bait and not you faggots.

The reason I dodn't like the second one as much as the first was because it was way easier than the first.

Obviously since it's on a shitty Nintendo console, they want as many retards to not get a fit because the game is too hard. Everything else was ok (music, setting, characters) but the thing is it should've been BETTER.

If vgchartz is actually right about this, and who knows honestly, then it at least sold more than Bayo 1 on 360.

Bayo 1 had a massive install base when you combine the 360 and PS3 owners at three years in.

And it didn't sell till it hit bargin bin prices and STILL barely got to a million on each console.

This argument is retarded.

But I feel mostly indiferent because the only time you see the Bayo fanbase popping out is to create console wars, shit on DMC games or act smug in Smash threads. Bayo game discussion is non-existant unless you hit /cgg/, and I'm not even sure that place exists anymore.

>It shows Sega that there's reason to continue having faith in the IP, and it shows that Character Action games can still sell even if they don't have a popular IP slapped onto them like Transformers or Metal Gear.

>Hopefully it acts as a wake-up call for Nintendo to get more third party games on their systems since the Bayonetta deal paid off for them, they desperately fucking need it. Same goes for mature content, in the past few years NoA has become seemingly terrified of putting out something that doesn't cater to the Mario or Pokemon audience regardless of what its original demographic was.

>Bayonetta fans would have never gotten a cool sequel to begin with had Nintendo not stepped in and showed confidence in the franchise, so the only people mad about the games existence are console war shitposters. With Wii U emulation slowly coming along you'll be able to play it on PC eventually anyway.

3rd parties need to be willing to make games like these for Nintendo to court them in the first place though. Western pubs pretty much only want their AAA blockbusters for the masses and they don't sell well on Nintendo's platforms.

And they even sabotage games that would do well, like Rayman, and insist they be multiplat for maximum shekels.

People keep going on and on about how Nintendo needs to bend over backward for 3rd parties but it won't make any difference. The demographics 3rd parties want simply do not exist on Nintendo's platforms, better hardware won't change that. They could have been making Wii U games on comparatively small budgets since launch but they'd rather funnel all resources into marketing for the next AAA blockbuster.

The industry needs to change, publishers need to be willing to make more than safe, mass-appeal AAA games.

>>336480503
It's not about sales, it's about profitability.

A game with 60m in sales that cost 80m doesn't warrant a seqel. A game with 6m in sales that cost 100k is a money-printing machine.

As long as the game comfortably made back its budget, Ninty/Sega would be foolish not to greenlight a sequel. It may not warrant a massive advertising push but it's basically free money and it comes with the added benefit of core gamer cred which is worth something as a system seller (not much, but still).

But...but...nintendo should make a console where the AAA games can go!!
They really should!
What's that? Splatoon was made on a shoestring budget and made 1000% profit with only a tiny marketing push?

I still understand how the sexy peach and daisy clothes were ok with Nintendo higher ups but the stuff in FF5 wasn't. What an odd company.

>>336492962
Best part about the Legends multiplat was it sold best on the Wii U even though it had the lowest consoles owners, the way I see it with 3rd parties is they should use the Wii U to experiment with old and new ips and try new ideas that wouldn't be a hit with the mainstream audience instead of just putting out shit ports of their flagship titles.

I somehow managed to find it at Target, heard other people had luck there too but this was a few months ago.

So how much did The W101 actually sell? Has Nintendo ever funded a sequel to a flop?

Fuck Bayo getting into Smash. You fags already got a sequel and Smash was the only chance to make normies like W101

Bayo 2 got reprinted and sold for $30 in February.

Should have bought before, I waited until Christmas 2014 and got a new copy with both discs. The original printing didn't sell out quickly by any means.

I think you can at least get the first on the eshop, but yeah, digital on Wii U.

And they say this place doesn't favor Sony.

At least we still have these threads to witness the CONTINUED saltiness of faggots mad they can't play the game because it's on the "pii u" and touching anything Nintendo is against their religion. That and the saltiness of Bayo winning the Smash poll.

Exactly, Wii U could have had plenty of smaller games publishers didn't want to spend a lot putting on the other consoles. Stuff the GC/Wii saw like Zac & Wiki, Billy Hatcher, Red Steel, etc.

But the bloated AAA model has effectively ruined AA and smaller-scale development. Selling a few hundred thousand copies of a nice game isn't going to cut it for these pubs anymore, the AAA model is unsustainable and it's all they can do to keep it going.

>Sega should have had faith in their franchise
Sega bankrolled a ton of Platinum games last gen, and most of them flopped. It's not surprising at all that they were lacking in faith in them.

>>336493810
It got a standalone reprint, right?

I'd like to get the version with both. But all the listings for a used combo pack are around the price of a new game, and paying $60 for a used, possible covered with alkaline fluid, copy is just bonkers.

Just get a used copy and makes sure the pictures are clear and it's in good shape. You're simply not going to get both discs cheaper than that, your only other option is to get a new copy of 2 and the digital version of 1.

Doubtful, we know Nintendo typically budgets their games well for the purpose of minimizing losses or keeping them from happening altogether. They don't spend tens of millions on their games. Even something like W101 was likely profitable if even only barely.

Yeah, I can figure some games will be hard to find, like pikmin 3, so I get them at launch. But I didn't think bayo 2 would just never go on sale and then disappear.

You should learn by now that Nintendo games should have their review score raised by 1-2, because reviewers are absolutely retarded.

See:
>Tropical Freeze getting blasted for being too hard
>Same for W101
>Xenoblade Chronicles X being called "too difficult to understand"

Only Pokemon and undeniably GOAT games will ever get solid reviews, because Nintendo doesn't funnel money to these cretins like other companies do.

Nintendo are extremely anal retentive about visions of games.

>>
>>336495518
>All this talk of NX ports
No. Just no. Make new games. PS4 is shit because it's library is padded to Hell and back with fucking ports and remasters.

NX will likely be fully BC anyway, which is what PS4/Xbone should have been from the start. They only reason they're not was so morons would buy all these "remasters" in lieu of new games that didn't exist yet.

>>336495793
That's just what happens when you get Miyamoto hard on their asses. If he's just going to be an old "adviser", his influence is going to be more detrimental than good. When he has more control, we get games like Pikmin and Metroid Prime.

Miyamoto is a double edged sword.

He can slap retro to being 10/10 devs or he can fuck over paper Mario.

He's still proving he's got good ideas, but he needs to be told to let Developers Develop sometimes.

But I understand what he did with sticker star, it was just not cool

Nigga, Sony literally told Capcom to fuck off with their online system, so the Mon Hun Devs told they to eat a dick.

Sony literally killed their cash cow because it didn't want to wear a bell.
>>
>>336496245
Him letting developers do as they do is what got us Sticker Star in the first place. He gave them some advice, and then was told to fuck off, and then they took the advice to the extreme.

Iwata even sounded disappointed in the Iwata Asks. Miyamoto told them to try something more original than making a straight sequel to TTYD, so they threw out the entire RPG system.

Miyamoto doesn't ever really get to get his hands on a game like he used to. The most control he's had over a game recently was Star Fox Guard.
>>
>>336496245
Not that I liked any recent Paper Mario, but at least you can see where he's coming from. He didn't want to have two Mario RPG series, so one got some tweaks. Sucks for fans that still wanted it to retain the RPG gameplay but the idea behind it was to provide more diversity in the gameplay of their franchises and not have two already similar franchises provide the same gameplay experience.

Mario & Luigi was the better RPG and successor to Mario RPG anyway

Nintendo literally paid for the online functionality for Tri, 3U, and 4U in the west, published all three in Australia, published Tri in Europe, distributed all three in Europe and Australia, and marketed the hell out of them worldwide. Nintendo bent over backwards to get Monster Hunter on their side whilst Sony did nothing. There's no drama between Sony and "The Monster Hunter Devs," Nintendo just sucks Capcom's cock harder than Sony could even imagine.
