As I mentioned in the WiiU thread. I really hope this is Platinum getting into bed with Nintendo, Platinum could do wonders with quite a few of Nintendo's IPs and Platinum would benefit from the extra sales gained from the IP.
Cue some rumours of Platinum characters in the next Smash Bros too.
Depressing stuff. Here's me thinking the original didn't sell as it catered towards the more open-minded gamer and that people would be ecstatic about this announcement. Now I've realised that the game probably did reach a larger audience, just through piracy instead.
I have to say I love reading all the bitching and Platinum seem to attract it. I regularly read and berate the twats on facebook who mouth off Rising for not being a true mgs game.
I seem to remember Vanquish being the one that was expected to sell well in the West. It didn't. But it wasn't as good. That one needs a sequel more than Bayonetta.
You have to wonder how many of those twats on twitter actually bought and played Bayonetta and how many are just using this as an excuse to mouth off towards Nintendo. Idiots.
Totally would love to see them do a Vanquish sequel on Wii U too, or other next gen platforms.
Best SP only game this generation. Unbelievably fun to play and the sequel really is a massive coup for Nintendo. A few more titles like this on Wii U and I'm in. IN.
Yeah the announcement made me put it on too. I completed Hard mode late last year and left it at that. I'm a bit out of practice, but not sure if I have what it takes for Infinite Climax (most outrageous difficulty name of any game?), repeatedly annihilated just in the graveyard opening.
I thought Bayonetta was tough, in places, on normal (as certain enemy type used to regularly kick my arse). Despite obviously not being great at it, I'd still say it's one of my top 5 retail games this gen.
I happen to have just started vanquish, with bayonetta next up. Â Unless I love them both (and I have enjoyed the bits of both I've played so far - particularly the latter), this ain't a console swinger for me, surprised it might be for anyone really!
Holy freaking shit, I wish I could play Vanquish again for the first time, Vanquish is bloody amazing. Â Whatever you do, don't play it like Gears or some other slow-arse cover shooter. Â Play it balls out, drop kicking robots in the face as fast as you possibly can!
