Why did he do it?

>Gets offered funding and creative freedom to create a sequel that he's wanted to make for years
Bayonetta 2 was hardly a bad move on his part.

>Bayonetta 2 was hardly a bad move on his part.
He didnt make Bayonetta 2 but Wonderful 101.
>making great games and not caring about consolewarrior bullshit
Sounds good to me
Microsoft funded some crazy good japanese stuff before. Did people forget lost odyssey and tales of vesperia? I dont have an xbone to play it but I'm sure his game is gunna be cool.
>>333854274
He will care when they don't sell.
>>333854512
They never do
>>333854512
The publisher will care.
>>333854651
You're right, since they'll realize it was a failure and then do their best to put them out of business.
>>333854512
Are you saying they sold well on playstation
>>333855404
Right, because the publisher can just sue them for making a game that doesn't sell well and put them out of business.

I fail to see the problem. They're the mercenaries of this industry. And since they're pretty much good, a lot of people is hiring them lately.

nintendo sent the yakuza to kidnap his family, now he is a slave and he must make everything for nintendo's dead machine

Explain

there's a gay porn actor that looks similar to him, and it's frequently posted in platinum/kamiya threads.

Bayonetta sold a lot more on Playstation and Xbox than on Wii U. If Bayonetta 2 had been a multiplat it would have sold quite well since the original fans probably migrated to their next platforms.
>>333859087
Post it, i want to see this shit
for the nookie
fill me in on this
>>333859431
No it didnt, Bayonetta only sold after a long period of time after numerous pricedrops, Bayonetta on wiiu sold far more in a short time frame than it did on both 360 and PS3
Ninty pays Platinum to make game --> Platinum makes game
Activision pays Platinum to make game --> Platinum makes game
Microsoft pays Platinum to make game --> Platinum makes game
Squeenix pays Platinum to make game --> Platinum makes game
Common theme here is the Platinum getting paid part. They're happy. If the game sells badly it's a concern for whoever commissioned it.
>>333864597
Dont bother, people never want to acknowledge the relative timeframe or the pricing, they only want to look at total numbers. and dont even get into the fact that its hilarious how Bayo on wiiu's sales trend better over a period of time than it does on 360 and pos3 despite the latter 2 having a far larger install base at the time.
>>333854431
Nier 2 is more exciting than that meme man on a dragon game for Xbone.
>>333864597
Bayonetta 2 hasn't even sold 500k. Bayo1 sold 2m in less than a year.
>>333862945
Me too, im interested
>>333864638
And they make good games too. I don't see the problem.
>>333854512
Besides DMC and RE2, Every game he's made sold below expectations.
I never understood why /v/ sees obsidian and platinum as some kind of video game saviors. They are just companies for hire. Their job is to be the B studio for a big publisher.
>>333867646
Because they're doing a better job than the A studio.
>>333867782
this desu senpai baka
>Nintendo and M$ have to pay for their Platinum games just to make their exclusives lists feel less small
>SE gives Sony a free Platinum exclusive just because they wanted to
Hilarious
>>333867782
Fucking this. What a stupid question to even ask. Their games have problems, but you can feel the love and passion in them.
>>333865465
>Console with literally only mario shit, people dumb enough to buy the console are on suicide watch
>Surprised that those people literally go running to their local gamestop to buy ANY 3rd party game that isn't kiddie shit for their dead console
It happened to bayo, it happened to zombiU.
If I were braindead enough to buy a nintendo console in 2015-2016 I would do the same thing.
>>333867646
Because they're one of the few studios that puts passion in their vidya.
>>333867646
they're the same people that like games from EA and Ubisoft but they like to pretend they have better taste
>>333854651
publishers like to have platinum games under their umbrella because its good to have a critical darling in your line up.
Platinum is going on a fuckton of games, does anyone know how many people they have?
>>333859087
you should share that with the class anon
