This and Xenoblade Chronicles are what's pushing me for a Wii U, great value pack with the original Bayonetta in it.

Man, this looks so good! They haven't strayed from the original which is really awesome to see, the combat still looks fast and furious. That bow and arrow weapon looks really fun too.

Only thing I'm worried about is that annoying kid seems to follow you around the whole game, I don't like the looks of that one bit.

As a side note though, should this thread not be in general gaming?

Maybe he's like the little girl in the first game (Eliza? Forgot her name) just here and there.

Dammit it Mang SEGA fans got to cling on something, do you want us to just talk about Sticks the Badger, DO YOU?!

^Isn't he the co-op character though? Eh, I just get bad vibes from him. The gameplay made it look like he wasn't overbearing anyway.


As for NOT SEGA, it's technically true, but I agree there's not exactly much to talk about otherwise except for 'Sonic Boom looks shit'/'No it doesn't' & 'Gib Shemmu 3 plz'. There's also Alien Isolation, but discussion seems to be anaemic on that game.

I can't understand why outside of it being a licensed IP. Frankly it looks great to me and I've always wanted a good Alien game. You should watch any piece of media you can of it, really restored my confidence in CA after they botched Rome II.

I was sure I saw the kid fighting in the vid? I might be wrong...
Skip to 50s in the vid, he's definitely flipping about and stuff during the fight. Can't tell if he's actually damaging them, but he's there and stays there.


Maybe I just don't like him because he's black? DUN DUN DUN

As for Alien, I'm excited too and I think it's going to be good, just that there doesn't seem to be much to talk about. I haven't had a chance to watch the gameplay footage yet, so that might change things.

Is Sega doing ANYTHING with this game though? They own the IP but from what I know they aren't developing nor Publishing the game.

I like to think of it as a SEGA x NINTENDO x platinum collab... despite SEGA's logo not even on the box anymore. Well someone needs to satisfy her needs in the process right?.. right? :afroman:

I think it's 100% Platinum Games. SEGA owns the IP, Nintendo publishes. From what I read in the Eyes of Bayonetta art book, SEGA Japan actually were against glasses on Bayonetta! I can only imagine what Nintendo pushed back on. Or, Nintendo are so desperate for a hit that they figure hands off is best with PG.

I do know, however, that Kamiya is unhappy with Nintendo's treatment of the logo. It all stemmed from a tweet we sent him. In fact, Kotaku reported on it: http://kotaku.com/why-hideki-kamiya-hates-the-bayonetta-2-wii-u-box-1589176761

Nothing . Just seems that some of the SEGA faithful are so desperate to paint SEGA in a positive light they'll try and make out SEGA involved, quite sad really .


Worst still is I remember the days when SEGA Japan was once able to low the world with High End graphics and making great action games :(

I seriously can't tell the difference between the two, what am I missing?

As for Kamiya, ...I don't see why people are acting like this is a surprise. A game's developers almost never have a say in things like boxart and marketing, those duties belong to the publisher. If Platinum wants that type of control, then they should publish their games themselves.

Publishers are the ones who actually have to pay to market, distribute, and sell the game. They're going to do what they think will best sell the game. That's not the job of a developer.

I think mademang raised a good point then and I think this thread doesn't nesceseraly have to be in the SEGA section but then again we dont have to be THAT politically correct. We can all agree that the game looks fantastic. I know most footages arent very clear but so far i get the impression that the upgrade from Bayo 1 is pretty striking. I'm gonna be honest i've been skeptical about the WII U's performance as well but that concern has gone  to rest since recently. Even Bayonetta 1 is running 60fps locked. I wonder if that's gonna run better than the 360 version since I heard that game wasnt locked 60fps.

Read the article, it explains it all. I agree with Kamiya, the original looked better.

He may not be in control of boxart, but he can still voice his dislike.

Hmm, It would be great if it runs better than 360 version. I would love to have the definitive B1 on the same console as Bayo 2. Hell, I'm just stoked we get both games on the same console now! Great idea considering I'd imagine theres a lot of WiiU owners who never played the first one.

What do you guys think of the new weapons? Flamethrows and Ice guns might be cool, that Bow and Arrow is the one that looks coolest to me though.

The kid, Loki, sometimes participates in fights. I think it's similar to Jeanne; depending on the fight and for story reasons, they'll assist. It makes you wonder how they'll do co-op though-who'll the second character be? Wouldn't 2 Bayonetta's be impossibly strong?

That's because Sega is involved in Bay2 at some capacity.

1: Sega holds the rights to everything BAYONETTA
2:Sega OWNS the game code of the original BAYONETTA. Not the engine but the game code
3:That means Sega can publish the game on various formats at any time in the future. Which they have done with many other games made by teams outside of Sega's internal and Acquired Development structure.
4:The first Bay game is part of the new one which means Platinum had to go an get Sega's involvement AGAIN to gain access to that code for the changes they wanted to make for the WiiU version.

So regardless of how you like to paint Sega not being involved, they are and always have been as a supervisor advisory role which many license holders do when someone else has effectively licensed out a character that they own.  In fact the inclusion of the original actually strengthens the case of it being Sega via Nintendo publishing it.

Not if they make the enemies stronger/double the amount. They might even change the enemies depending on if you are running co-op, like Bayo 1's hardest difficulty throwing Grace and Glory at you in like, level 1.

Weren't they at least published by Sega?



Who's going to be replaying Bayonetta 1 before they start 2? I hope they don't change the controls etc too much/ at all, they were just about perfect in the first.

Come to think of it, I'll need to buy a good pad for the Wii-U so I dont have to use that tablet thingy...

I planned to replay my 360 version, but I might wait and play it on Wii U. Especially if its 60fps and it's easy to unlock the Nintendo goodies. Shame Nintendo isn't splashing out for a limited edition, I really hope thats still in the cards. I'd love a Bayo 2 art book and a replica of one of her blue guns.

Yeah, I didn't think of that actually. Come to think of it, I can't think of many Nintendo games that had Collector's editions, if any. Console bundles, yes, but not straight up collector's editions...

I really want a console bundle more than anything. The most awesome thing would be some kind of mega Platinum bundle with Wii-U, Bayonetta 1&2 and Wonderful 101 all together.

At most, they do special Wiimotes, like with Mario & Sonic. DuckTales came with a pin, MK8 came with a statue. I hope they DO do something, but they probably won't knowing Nintendo.

I can also see myself ignoring B2 after beating it once and just replaying 1 over and over again as it's the true Sega game. I'm pretty sure all the "This is a Nintendo Game now" hints dropped all over B2 are going to annoy me.

Yeah, I must admit I feel the same way. The Sega homages in the first one made sense, since Kamiya was a Sega fan in his youth. They were also fresh because it's not something that gets trotted out every single year. The Nintendo homages just seem like pandering to the same old franchises Nintendo fans can't ever get enough repetitions of decade after decade. Oh, look. There's Zelda again. And there's Metroid. Again. And again. Presumably until we all grow old and die.

FYI:

Nintendo sells a refurb Wii U 32gb with Nintendo Land and the controller for 200 dollars on their store. If you get Mario Kart 8 for 40 bucks from now to July 17th or something, you get a free digital download of either Pikmin 3, Zelda Wind Waker HD, New Super Mario Bros Wii U and/or Wii U party. The refurbs from Nintendo come with 1 year warranty. Yes. I got one. $5 shipping (even if you add more items like controllers)

It's a fun system.

I wish it were more powerful graphically and of course that it had more 3rd party support. But at such cheap prices, it's not a bad buy.

Odd since Kamiya said he didn't play much Sega games when he was younger. The only reason people get fed up with the Nintendo homages is because Nintendo don't have that many game characters as Sega and that many of those characters are still being updated by Nintendo today in new games. So its hardly special. Sega of course doesn't update many of their classic games so it means something when you see a nod to a classic Sega game or character who hasn't been seen in donkey years. Which is why ALLSTARS is popular. Sad really.

True. A second party Sega game in the long history of second party games published and owned by Sega including the original SHINING FORCE and SAKURA TAISEN. It's better to view Bay2's situation as similar to SHENMUE 2, being published by Microsoft for Xbox.

They own the IP and that's it . Its not a SEGA developed game, the sequel will sell like crap and the IP has done and will do SEGA little good . Trying to make out that Bay II is a SEGA game (which some are) is just taking it too far . SEGA may well own the IP to games like Gunstar Heroes , but deep down we all know its a Treasure game , just like with Gradius V

Nobody said it was a Sega developed game. There's always been four types of Sega games, First, second, published and licensed. BAYONETTA fits in the second party category. Please stop trying to re write history when Second party games regardless on who makes it has always been referred to the company that published and own the IP as their game. Bay 2 fits into licensed like what you would get with many of the LCD titles or games like OUTRUN 2019 among countless others. There's a precedence to this already. Its still a Sega game regardless of what you think.

It wasn't so long ago that due to the SEGA references that people made out that Bay was a SEGA game and they played a part in developing the title . In the end all SEGA did is fund the title and hold the IP rights and its laughable to see people here try and make out its a SEGA tile .


Noone really see's Gunstar Heroes as a SEGA game , Treasure will always get the credit . Most people will always see Wonderboy as a Westone game, even if SEGA still owns the IP rights to the name 'Wonderboy' and noone see's Ferrari 355 has an Acclaim game even though they held the rights to Ferrari and published the the title in the West

Let's stop the bull right there. No one says Treasure didn't make the game. But people will see Sega as being the key factor for that game. The same with Wonderboy especially when No one this generation of gamers or back then had heard of Westone or even cared. All they would see is Sega and make the connection. So stop trying to be clever mate. That westone comment alone is quite stupid in itself...really can't believe you said that..shows how inexperience of the old days you really are...

Sign, Ferrari 355 is a published game. I've already made the key points of what a Sega game and which category it falls under. Making the Accailm comparison is silly since many Sega published games are usually new games that are published by Sega but the developer retains ALL the rights.

SEGA holds the IP rights but deep down everyone knows its completely a treasure title. Wonderboy everyone who's any sort of gamer and SEGA fan will know it was a Westone title and they developed the games and even developed them for rival formats under a different name .

With games like Sakura Wars not only did SEGA fund them hold the IP rights but also had its own staff helping to develop the games (not just produce it ) rising up to over a hundred In-House staff to help develop the DC titles . There is a difference

No its just shows what IP rights can do . Well all know AM#2 made the title , Yet in the west Acclaim held the Ferrari rights and published the game. It really wouldn't have made any different which major Studio published Bay, it would have played and looked the same - It's your typical Platinum game .


You know put  it this way, who do you credit for Strider II on the Mega Drive . Capcom or US Gold ?

All we've seen so far is the three extra costumes for Bayonetta 1, I haven't heard of any Nintendo hints for Bayo 2 yet. I don't think they'll get obnoxious with it though.

You don't say.. ::) . Westone was never widely known at any capacity by the majority of gamers, so try again. And anyone knows the proper WB games was made with Sega which is why Adventure Islands is hardly a footnote in gaming history. Unless of course you were a sad PC Engine owner....

Funny, if i was actually referring to SW. But on that, its a joint copyright game. Sega can't do SW without Red and neither can Red unless they get Sega's approval. The only ones who has actually made new SW games has been Red. Just like Bayonetta really. Which Sega had fully funded but of course you said didn't count. They also initially funded the second game before it got canned. So again your argument about Sega not being involved as well as it not being a Sega game when you yourself have used Sakura Taisen as an implication that its  a Sega game via funding also defaults your initial argument.

Not really. Ferrari, Sega had worldwide rights arcade wise. They didn't have worldwide rights as opposed to console. Again its just another publisher publishing another game from a different company or in this case porting the title. Why? Because Sega had already published the game on two formats. Acclaim just did it for the western markets. When Sega usually publishes a game, its usually a game that hasn't been released yet but they don't own the rights to it.

And really use a better example than Strider 2 for gods sake...

All we've seen so far is the three extra costumes for Bayonetta 1, I haven't heard of any Nintendo hints for Bayo 2 yet. I don't think they'll get obnoxious with it though.


Oh they're coming man. You'll see. No way they're gonna let that game slide without Luka revealing himself to be Captain N and Bayonetta summoning Iggy Koopa to fight the new head of the Lumen Sages, Balder's kid Icarus.

All of the Sega hints caught me off-guard in Bayo 1.

Stop it! :( I don't want it to be trueeeee

I still think it won't be overkill. The Bayonetta 1 Sega References weren't obvious or imposing unless you were a fan. I doubt most players understood the "WELCOME TO MY FANTASY ZONE! GET READY", even though we were all cumming buckets of semen over it. Holy shit, I just remembered how much I love this game. I doubt the sequel will be as good, just by virtue of the fact that Bayonetta 1 is so glorious and near-perfection in my eyes.

Also, could this be a special edition? Saw it posted on GAF (I get bored at work sometimes)

Platinum at least done nintendo references really well in wonderful 101. There's a boss fight in which you control a power ranger sort of robot against a big boss that plays like punch out. To someone who never even played punch out I thought it was really neat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aTz8nS5MZs at 14:00


Honestly with recent years i've grown a huge appreciation for what platinum does. The complexity in their game mechanics accommodate each other so well and yet Its all so polished without any bugs or glitches. There's just so much variations of how each stage is made, whether in structure, traversal, dynamics. Its all executed well and feels so effortless

Btw If you live in europe and get a wii u soon, be sure to pick up Mario Kart 8 if you're not getting the bundle. Wonderful 101 is one of the free games you can get. It is really awesome and sadly overlooked. I think this promotion will end soon. Not sure when..

So again your argument about Sega not being involved as well as it not being a Sega game when you yourself have used Sakura Taisen

Lots of game flops from specific strong series. That doesn't mean they will give up on it for good. ST can't get done straight away like a title that Sega fully owns. That's always been the reality.

WRONG! Sega initially put money into Bay 2 then canned it. You can't cancel a title if it was never on the drawing board. Second Sega will have some credit on the game because they are actually involved in a limited capacity during the beginning of development. Third, Sega helped Platinum get Bay2 off the ground with Nintendo in the first place.
Four, Sega let Platinum have access of the original title which was only added later in the development.And Sega OWNS the first game code.
So keep spinning your bull on the game about Sega's non involvement.

Nothing like the situation with Strider 2.

Do you think Bayonetta 2 will start off with most of her abilities from 1 unlocked from the start? Like Yakuza 3 has most of Kiryu's 2 moves unlocked?

I wouldn't like to go from Bayonetta in 'climax mode' from 1 to a gimped Bayonetta in 2. Stuff like the butterfly and panther transformation should be in from the start in my opinion.

Depends. I'd like to see a variation of her powers so Bay 2 is slightly different to Bay 1. And then somehow transfer Bay2 into the Bay 1 game and vice versa.

I wonder if it's a big job to do what you are suggesting with character model swaps? I think changing the look is easy (hence the Nintendo themed costumes) but movesets and weapons might be tougher. If they did include more weapons in Bayo 1 that would be pretty unreal.

I dunno if its big but it would be a nice bonus. I mean it would be a blast to test your skills as Bayonetta but just using the skills from the first game. Anyway i'm interested to see what happens with this game.Because the implications are quite big either way Will it help the Wii U? If its a flop it will be the end of the series. If its a bonafide success, sells millions and help shift Wiiu units than would Sega want to take over the series or demand a spin off game so they can get in on the action rather just collecting licensing fees. No doubt Nintendo will tie any sequels to Bay for their system as exclusives.

I think that's the biggest thing nintendo has that's pretty much acknowledged almost by everyone. They're developers are highly skilled veterans. And it seems from what i've read so far they're also pleasant to work with. It excites me a lot to think that bayo 2 could be bayonetta 2 with the polish and refinement of a nintendo product.

Got a link to that? All I've ever heard is that Miyamoto didn't care for the final product.

No. Its not something widely known although Nagoshi did refer to some problems in an interview with Sega Voice at the Sega japan site but thats all in japanese and its also offline now.

I think that's the biggest thing nintendo has that's pretty much acknowledged almost by everyone. They're developers are highly skilled veterans. And it seems from what i've read so far they're also pleasant to work with. It excites me a lot to think that bayo 2 could be bayonetta 2 with the polish and refinement of a nintendo product.

I cant really say too much tho since i've been avoiding spoilers since the video in the OP. We'll see

The original Bayonetta was as polished as any game so I'm not sure how much more Nintendo "polish" could add to it. Kamiya probably has the best track record in the industry too.

Besides, Platinum is hardly going to badmouth their publisher unless they have a falling out again.

No and Platinum polish is a myth anyway. Anyone familiar with dev cycles talk all know the headache PG gave Sega with two of their games. Polish indeed, don't make me laugh...
