It maybe wasn’t the hit that Platinum Games and Nintendo were hoping for but that hasn’t stopped Platinum Games from thanking Wii U owners who picked up Bayonetta 2. The thanks comes directly from Akiko Kuroda, who is the producer of the game. Here’s what Kuroda had to say to Wii U owners.
I was very happy and relieved to see the game was being so warmly welcomed all over the world, so I’m very grateful to all of you who picked it up!
Thanks, khalidmr93
Pikmin X Bayonetta confirmed
Too bad no one bought it. Lmao
First week NA & Europe 200k without eShop sales. Now it’s about 300k-350k. Pretty good for a niche game which is exclusively to one platform.
It will probably hit 500k by the year´s end, if it has not achieved that yet, since we don´t know how digital sales went.
By the end of November, it already had surpasses 400k worldwide (only physical media)
You’re pretty much confirming that no one bought it
Nope. It is a niche title from PLatinum Games which is only available on one platform. So the sales are actually pretty good.
First week sales are higher than those from Bayonetta which was released on 2 platforms with a much bigger customer base.
Just like the new COD, hurr hurr!
Great game brought both games
Sales =/= Quality
Fuck off retard.
Too bad you’re wrong. Lmao
I bought it fool
Sold 10x More Then Devil May Cry and Every console Exclusive game thus far for next Gen. With 13 Million in Sales on WiiU It is the authority on the Cinematic Action Platformer Genre as well as a powerhouse of a game that almost exceeds the sales of Street Fighter 4 in 2 months after Street Fighter 4 has been in circulation for 10 years.
you being a dick confirmed
So you mean “The Wonderful 101”?! It is basically a mix between Pikmin and Bayonetta (with more Bayonetta in it).
one of the best games iv played of the year
How bout for the people who haven’t picked it up? Nothing? Okay. No loss there.
Yeah. Move on and shut it. You’re missing out on the real good stuff Nintendo offers.
Nope. Because i’m not going to miss out on Zelda U, or Xenoblade, or devil’s third, or mario maker, or star fox….. :)
I doubt you have a Wii U or any Nintendo console at all.
Implying that any of those games are coming out anytime soon, pleb.
faggot
best wiiu game?
Only wiiu game*
I have 16 full retail games for it. I’m pretty sure that I don’t have 16 copies of Bayonetta 2.
Lame. I have 23 games in my collection (not counting digital games). There´s plenty to play on WiiU.
Compared to others? Not really
The others only have first person shooters.
LittleBigPlanet, MGS V, Shadow Of Mordor, inFamous, Dragon Age, Alien Isolation says otherwise… dumbass
The wii-u has had more 85+ rated exclusives than ps4 and Xbox One COMBINED thus far… So yeah if you want a bunch of call of Duty brah.. Sure ignore Nintendo otherwise they offer the most and highest quality exclusives this gen thus far. And yes I own a ps4 and x1 to compliment it.
.
Of course. The U has the most great exclusive games. Why should I buy a XBone? For Sunset Overdrive maybe – but one great exclusive game is not a reason to buy a console.
And mutliplatform games a no reason at all. Because you can play most of them on a midrange PC. But even if you pay more for a PC than for an console the games are way cheaper.
I have More WiiU Exclusives then Any Console minus The Glorious PC Master Race will Recieve EVER. Your Next Gen is Trash and I will emulate it in 4 years time for free. For Now I will play exclusive timeless content.
You’re welcome.
There’s a fucking anime for this game. Go watch it’s pretty damn sweet.
I watched the anime hoping to skip the first game and go directly into 2, but the anime was really dry. Cool character and fun plot, but pacing issues made it pretty boring at times. If I could go back and do it again, I’d just advise people to skip the movie and play the first game.
bayanetta3 not exclude to nintendo
no wiiu only games from here on out
only for wiiu consept needs to go
new3ds only software campatible wont work even for the new3ds
Shut the fuck up faggot.
Ignore the troll. Its hungry so let it starve.
Yeah, I can’t get it to work either… oh sorry… had it the wrong way.
Nope, it’s working now, thank god for that.
i wished more people bought this game. It’s stunning. Easily on of my GOTY
I really did enjoy this game. I still play it over and over again. How much did the game actually sold tho? More than 700 thousand?
500,000+
That Number is Kinda False. That is Single Copies of the game. This does not include eshop sales or even Console sales that included the game. It’s easy to say there has been one million copies sold.
new 3ds dont work
Your brain doesn’t work!
new 3ds only games dont work on my old 3ds the new3ds has failed already
Well at least we know you’re trying to troll *pats your head*
Yet you’re still feeding it
Yet I’m not mad, so not really feeding, more putting the food too far above it’s head so it can’t reach it.
Well the Nick guy certainly did…
And not Chris according to me so he didn’t get baited much. lol
you don´t have a new 3ds.
Bayonetta 3 might be in the works?
I hope so because I love this game and the first game :)
If this game manages to sell 500-600k… who knows? Maybe Nintendo will step on and fund it again. I´d love to see a sequel
You’re welcome…
Same.
…Though I’ve yet to play either of the two Bayonetta games because I’m horribly backlogged.
new 3ds only software wont sell consoles
Yeah, those games won’t work on my DS!
How dare they make a new and exciting version of the 3DS!
Freaking Nintendo.. honestly
His boyfriend dumped him last night and he’s trying to stay busy. Ignore him
No problem. Excellent game
Better then any ps4 and xb1 game easily too. It’s magnificent.
Ummm not Dragon Age Inquisition, not The Walking Dead……
Haha yea sure.
I still prefer Bayonetta 2 over The Walking Dead.
They are completely different games….
He said PS4/XB1, not PC.
Sorry If I wanna Play DA:I I am in the master race. PS4 and XBones a total fucking waste of time. Nintendo for Exclusives PC for Performance. Your shit boxes are worthless.
Lol
Everytime I went out and tried to purchase this game I didnt find it. Fucking gamestop didnt have it. Neither did target. Nor kmart.
Amazon?
Where on Earth do you live? Where I live in Michigan, the initial under-shipment is over. I luckily bought the game on launch day, but copies are now piling up in various retailers. I saw six at my local Meijer, three at Toys R Us, four at Wal-Mart, at least one at Target, etc.
I moved to washington AAA
I haven’t had much luck here.
And I didnt want to wait 2 or 3 weeks for it to arrive from amazon like I waited for smash bros bundle.
not
Not really that bad for a game, I love the New 3DS*
the new 3ds is not a next generation console
No it isn’t… it’s current gen.
Damn Nintendo and their awesome high tech consoles that are made for fun
“High tech”
I can’t find it in any stores. I want to buy it.
Amazon?
I rather have a spanking new one rather then someone else’s used one.
Yeah… still.
Plus it won’t count towards the sales number.
I think you’re confusing Amazon and eBay. Right now Bayonetta 1 & 2 are brand, sealed new for $58 and change on Amazon, and buying it would count into its sales figures.
Oh. That I didn’t know. Thanks. I’ll go and check it out.
This site is full of fucking losers.
this site is full of fucking losers
But you’re on the site… that means… DUN DUN DUUUUUNNNNN!!
YOU’RE A LOSER TOO! QUICKLY!! WE NEED TO GET THIS POOR BOY TO THE TARDSPITAL! Give him 50 CCs of Brain function, state!
3ds sucksessor 2017 being develpt by sharp
Sweet, my idea for a porn based handheld is finally going to become true? Thank you Nintendo!!
the new 3ds has failed there answer is your a troll?
EA! That is all
I wanna thank Platinum for this wonder game and certainly wish it won GotY so it would’ve gave it and Wii U the publicity it needs to keep pushing more sales. But what I wanna know is how much did it sale in total worldwide exactly up to now? If it does exceed better than Bayonetta 1 did on 60+ million PS3/360 respectively in 2-4 years (sold 2.2 million to be exact), then there’s possibly a home for Bayonetta with Nintendo and Bayonetta 3 could be coming down the road. :)
how dare you say? bad things about nintendo? you are a troll? you are a hater of nintendo?
stop attacking me nintendo fanboys stop bulling me stop being nasty to me you allways bull me all the time stop bulling me ok?
Bets on N RUNS IT and the spammer being the same guy!
Nope. Why would switch my name out over and over? To say bad shit about the new 3ds? Also fuck ubisoft
Glad Platinum did so much for us, there. I’m hoping someone will put up a successful movement to get a port of Vanquish up on the E-shop next, with new features.
Maybe even alongside an exclusive sequel, like Bay 2 was?
You know I’d buy that in a heart-beat!
Your welcome and thank you for making a great game. Now give us Bayonetta 3 !
Still haven’t had a chance to play my copy, but I bought it day one. Looking forward to it, though! Only one more final and I’m free for a month!!!
I have not pick up mine but it will be in my list to buy with X and Zelda.
forgot to add, they did very well considering Nintendo did not do much advertising for them.
You are very welcome Platinum. I’m happy to help those that help the Nintendo family.
it will be my xmas presente
One can safely assume 50% if not 70% of the drama fags on this thread didn’t buy Bayo2 and yet talk.
Am I the only one who found Kuroda Akiko-san to be really goddam sexy? Especially in that Bayonetta direct.
I can see where you’re coming from.
You’re welcome! The game is awesome sauce, shut up and take my money (although you already did.. :D ) I’d love to see a port/sequel to Metal Gear Solid Revengeance on the Wii U tho “hint-hint”!
I just got it yesterday!!
Multiplat Gamer Here,
Do they ever include digital sales in these “sales numbers” ? Yeah, these games are cursed with LOW sales regardless of the platform. For you Sony and/or Microsoft fanboys, not fans, fanboys using this as an opportunity to to talk smack, according to Sega, Bayonetta didn’t sell well across the XB360 and PS3. And if you Didn’t play the game, your stupid negative opinions are nulled and voided. And why the fuck are you hanging out on Nintendo sites or sections of the sites.?
For you Sony fanboys, I’d be more worried about if Sony will be around in the next 1-2 years. Bruh Sony has took a shit load of financial damage,
*Estimated $2.1 billion loss which is estimated to be more by years end
*Ordered by FTC to reimburse PS Vita owners in the US in $25 vouchers or $50 on PSN.
*Damage done by the $60 – 90 Black Friday PS4 Scam is yet unknown, millions may have been lost
*Hack attack leaked unreleased films on the net costing Sony potential billions in losses.
*Vital employee information of their employees got leaked, as well as they’ve been receiving terrorist threats. Sony has a class action lawsuit by it’s employees that’s going to cost them billions in damages if ruled in favor of it’s employees
*Vital customer/consumer information has been compromised and Sony WILL BE hit with another class action lawsuit that’s going to cost them billions in damages if ruled in favor of it’s consumers.
*you die hard Sony fanboys and your $60-90 PS4 scams during black Friday. SMDH
You Microsoft Fanboys,
*Every exclusive you get is getting ported to PC and may get worse for you when Win10 get’s released. It won’t effect multiplat gamers but console exclusive individuals will be left playing inferior versions of their own exclusives. SMH
*Microsoft stated, “This is it, XBOX 1 is our last console.”
