Yes. Whelp, on the bright side, Bayonetta 1 is still amazing. But yeah buy a Wii U (and to a lesser extent a Switch) for just Bayonetta is asinine.

told myself i wasn't gonna buy a wii u just for bayo 2, then breath of the wild came out and i was like, well alright now. Now im the EXACT same position as before, I'm not gonna buy a switch just for bayo 3, and frankly there isn't anything else switch exclusive that i'm even remotely interested in

Indeed. I know what you mean dude. I bought the Wii U for Bayonetta 2, and eventually sold off the system 8 months later due to lack of appealing software. The Switch situation seems very similar to that in the sense that there's maybe 1 or 2 games I may try, but overall it's feeling like Bayonetta 3 is being held hostage on that system or something.

*PS to anyone that would bring it up; I know that Nintendo pretty much picked up the Bayonetta game license from SEGA.

never played bayonetta but i remember getting a PS Vita just for Dangan Ronpa...now it just kinda lies in the dust.

This is all Sega's Fault.

Platinum Games should stop the exclusivity despite Nintendo paying it to make it exclusive. Bayonetta 1 was pretty good until the shift in platform sole payment. If anything, maybe they could work on a game series made by them that's for the PS4/XB1 and PC. Something similar to DMC1 and DMC3.

If only we had the foresight back in 2010 to know that one day the bayonetta trilogy would be available on a single console, oh wellz...

Wouldn't make a difference or sense at the time. Bayonetta 1 was on Xbox 360 and PS3 only and no Nintendo systems because the Wii was vastly inferior tech & power-wise. Bayonetta 2 being exclusive to the Nintendo Wii U feels like a slap in the face to 360/PS3 gamers that don't intend to buy a system just to play that one game. But yes, I feel that SEGA made a misstep by transferring publishing rights to Nintendo.
