Bayonetta thread? Bayonetta thread

My new question is what song they go to from here if they make a third Bayonetta?

Bad Moon Rising. Harvest Moon. Dark Side of the Moon. Sister Moon. Song About the Moon. Dancin' in the Moonlight. Girl on the Moon. Girl on the Moon. Moonlight Lady. Moonchild. Concentration Moon.

Hell, I dunno, Moonlight Sonata?

Gave in and listened to Moon River
The song is used very early in the game in footage everybody and the cat saw by now so no need to have a heavy conscience about it.
However, some may argue that listening to the OST is a gateway spoiler. That itch is gonna build and build until one day, you'll realize it's 6 in the morning but you can hold for another hour since you're already watched the playthrough up to the second-last video. :3

And technically, this is the original.

Well, both Fly Me to the Moon and Moon River have covers by Frank Sinatra. Maybe he's got another lunatic song in his sleeve. :3

But judging by sales figures, I wouldn't think too much about Bayonetta 3. >_>
So far, it sold around 38K copies. Of course, we have to consider that the Japanese might still be a little starstruck over TGS and also that they're a bunch of FKN CASULS who do most of their gaming on cellphones and portable systems. The game will fare better in the West, I think that's a given. Still better numbers than W101 though.
Also has to be taken into account that this game doesn't need to sell millions to be successful. I'm sure 300K or so is a good number. That said, I have my doubts it will make it.

Well no matter how much it sells it'll have at least 1 buyer in the West

I dont think there is going to be a Bayo3...Jp Sales were just 38K. :'c
Guess it depends on us now?
 
Don't all of Kamiya's games sell horribly, regardless of quality?

I'm sure Nintendo knew that Platinum does not equal sales (especially after The Wonderful 101), but a damn good game regardless, so a sequel isn't impossible.

MadWorld sold horribly and they still made Anarchy Reigns. I don't think sales affect Platinum too much.

Amazing but with room for improvement. They still pull some really asinine crap every now and then.
Backtracking for Verses, Alfheims counting for rank and the inexplicable Ch1 QTEs in Bayonetta; FUSTERCLUCK OF GLITCHES in Max Anarchy and the camera in MGRR to name some examples.

That's cool n'all but having to go and hit Replay every 15 minutes is just so much of a bother. I prefer these mp3s. :3
(The guy who put that playlist on YT, also uploaded a mp3 zip.)

Looking forward for the whole thing. I'm inclined to say the first game had a better OST but I still haven't given the ambiance themes a proper listen and many of my favorites in the first game are of that variety.

I'd say it depends on Big N. Given the circumstances I can understand the exclusivity but to anyone who doesn't fancy Nintendo's IPs, the system doesn't have much to offer. When the title was announced, Ninty made a big boast on how they'd have more of these types of games but so far nothing besides this little patronage of Platinum Games. The way it seems, a lot of people are seeing a picture of having to buy a system to play one game. I honestly want to see them securing more exclusives like this; the more reasons to own the system, the better.

I think Resident Evil 2 fared relatively well. :3
Nintendo tried to expand their grasp over the market but, again, they can't just secure one or two exclusives and call it day.

Can someone confirm whether there are taunts in Bayonetta 2 or not?
Fairly certain they're still in. Saw some players going ham with those in Tag Climax.

You have to click in the left stick to taunt.

Also, I think I ended up listening to that Frank Sinatra cover of Fly Me to the Moon on the way home.

What is the L Button used for then? Since in Bayonetta 1, that was taunt.
EDIT: Never mind, Umbran Climax, right... But R is weapon set change, and ZL is Lock On? That's gonna take some getting used to...
 
Last edited:
Yep. For some strange reason, they decided to shift around the button controls to account for Umbran Climax's addition.
 
Wait, what? I thought you had to get the alt. version, just like last game. Didn't they say as much in the Direct?
 
You can't buy the normal versions of weapons (unless something has changed and I don't know). You have to find their Golden LPs and take them to the Gates of Hell where Rodin will make the weapon for you.

Yeah, that, I meant they got the LP then got the weapon from Rodin. My bad... xP Point is, Alt. versions don't exist. I guess. Can someone confirm this...?
 
Very sure that I saw a picture of Rakshasa Alt. on the Direct. No dice.

Oh yeah, something important: Did the streamer put the weapon on both slots in a single weapon set? Pretty sure you can put a single weapon on two different slots if they're on different weapon sets.

Looks like he immediately bought the Alt. version and then equipped it on both limb slots. I guess that means that Alt. versions are folded into their normal counterparts instead of being shown as separate weapons like last game.

I feel like the biggest dummy... EVERYONE IGNORE ALL I SAID BEFORE! (Thanks for helping me find that out, by the way. I didn't even notice.)
 
Anyone else notice that the club nintendo bonus coins ends Oct 17, and the game doesn't come out for a week later? Bleh.

On a different note I still haven't played Bayonetta, it was on my to-do list, but it being included with the 2, i'll play it soon as i get my hands on it.
 
Had a feeling that she'd have some Bayo 1 costumes.

I didn't expect her original look though, bravo, Platinum. I wonder if her outfit disappears like it did in the first game (And her classic look in Bayo 2)... Or if it's treated like an actual costume, they're both made from her hair so...
 
Oh my god, I got to play the demo last night:

IT'S SO FAST! IT'S SO FREAKING FAST!!! You absolutely feel those 60 frames-per-second playing this game, and it makes it so much better!

Everything about the demo was exactly what I've been hoping for out of this game! I cannot wait to buy it on release!

I thought it played at like, 40-something FPS... What I heard, at least
 
Those guys were lying. It was confirmed to run at 60 FPS quite a while ago.
 
If that boss in the demo was just the appetizer, then I wonder what the main course will be like.
 
I was so happy to get to the end of the level, and see that the level was
Prologue

Playing the demo, I thought it was one of those demos that dropped you in several missions in, but THAT WAS THE PROLOGUE! THE INTRO!! Platinum's games always escalate in crazy with every level, so THAT ESTABLISHED THE BOTTOM LEVEL OF CRAZINESS!!! FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUU-
