I... really hope the term "exclusive" is used loosely and this eventually gets ported to other consoles in the future. Because this is, like, the only reason so far for me to get a Wii U.

Even so, it's still reason enough for me!

The rumour that was floating around some months ago is that Bayonetta 2 had been cancelled by Sega. It seems like Nintendo probably offered to fund it, which means it will most definitely be Wii U exclusive.

Very solid reason for us to be excited for Wii U, but on a broader scale, since the first Bayonetta wasn't a huge mainstream success, this demonstrates that Nintendo is willing to make a serious grab at core audiences. It's a risky, ballsy, and certifiably badass move on their part. Totally out of left field.

I shudder to think of controlling a fast paced action title solely through the use of motion controls. But it is a balsy move and I'm curious to learn more.

This has definitely increased my want for a Wii U. Probably still won't happen for a few years after release, though, and by that time Bayonetta 2 will probably be $20.

Remember that Wii U supports a standard controller, and the Gamepad itself is a standard controller by all accounts (like a slightly wider Dreamcast controller, or an Xbox 360 controller with a screen at its center, which amounts to basically the same thing). There's no reason to believe the game will be controlled with the Wii Remote until we hear that from Nintendo or Platinum Games.

I just hope it does well on the Wii U, since the last time Sega released M rated games on a Nintendo console, they didn't sell too hot.

Can't embed YouTube videos in forums, eh? Guess I'll just link to it instead.

I'm not too annoyed by this announcement because I figured I'd buy a Wii U eventually when a new Zelda, 3D Mario or Monolith's next game came out. I only have two concerns. One that I likely won't be able to play Bayonetta 2 on release. The other that it hopefully won't be bogged down with gimmicky tablet stuff (but I don't see Platinum really doing that).
