This is funny to me. I kinda step back and see this as a young vs Old.
Young: Aww man things are changing?! I hate change! I wanted every new game to ever come out to come out on my PS3 or Xbox 360! Now there is something new and I hate it!
Old: Whelp looks like things are changing. New console exclusives huh? More things change, the more they stay the same I suppose.
Honestly I'm not about to buy a WiiU for Bayonetta. It was a fun game, but I almost passed it over entirely. It didn't just grab me when i first saw it. I played it later and it was pretty fun...
The thing is The WiiU has no real competition as a "next gen" console at the moment... Theoretically the PS4 and nextgenbox could come out, but last I heard Sony and Microsoft were kinda banking on what they currently have to last a little bit longer. BUT this means that the WiiU is not a first day Buy for me. It has basicly nothing coming out on it when it comes out that I care about... So I've got to wait for a few games for it that I want to get. Bayonetta 2 is a very solid "win" for Nintendo, but they need more of these to really get me sold.
Example I didn't get a PS3 till DMC4 came out on it. I've enjoyed my PS3 a lot since then, but that was the game that really sold me on the system. Incidentally DMC4 was very disappointing to me, but the PS3 was not. My favorite games on it were Dark souls, Demons souls, and Disgaea. Originally I got the PS3 for good RPGs and some action titles, but it seems like that plan didn't work out so well.
I personally am going to wait for more, and better games to come out for the WiiU. Because Bayonetta alone is not enough to sell it for me. I need to hear that they are going to have other games as well. Having Capcom's support on the WiiU would be a huge selling point, since Capcom's games are some of my favorites. Until then I'm content to wait. Also Bayonetta needs some high review scores when it comes out to get my money.
Also. Just to throw two cents into the big 3rd person hack n slash vs FPS I'd just like to comment. One of the big things that turns me off to First person shooters is that you've got one button to press... the shoot button. Find that button and you are pretty much golden. I prefer 3rd person hack N Slash because you get more interesting combat. Sure you might be able to spam your favorite combo and get through the entire thing, but there is depth to it. You can always improve if you feel the desire to do so, and challenging the harder difficulties can be a very rewarding experience. The biggest draw of a FPS I think is the Multiplayer. Having simple easy to learn controls, so that you and all your friends can go mess around. Otherwise I never enjoy First person games.
