I'm so torn over this, I'm one of the "absolutely adored the first one but can't decide if a WiiU is worth getting just for it." Exclusive really means exclusive, right? Any hope for it coming out on anything else at all, ever? I played the first one through twice, unlocked nearly everything, and that's a damn rarity for me these days given the time allocated to playing. Maaaaybe, if I could get a super deal on a WiiU, or maybe later down the track if I can get one second hand.
It is possible we might get a port some day, but chances are slim. Sales are not great in Japan, so chances are they will not port it - low chance of it being worth it. It is almost certain this game isn't going to be ported, at least not for years to come, so you are looking at Wii U or not at all.
Bayonetta 2 does come with a copy of Bayonetta 1 with some updated graphics (I think) and additional goodies like Nintendo themed costumes, so it is a really good deal. Plus, the Wii U has some really good games. I certainly think it is worth getting the console, I already did and have never regretted it, but that all depends on if you like the games available. Do any other games on the Wii U interest you?
Yeah that's what I was afraid of, waiting for a port that never comes. If I got one, it would most likely be for the party/friends around oriented games, for the brief time I had a Wii that's what it was for anyways (golf, bowling, Wii sports Mario party etc). The only games I can imagine getting with this one are Mario Kart 8 aaaaaaand that's it for now. It does look a pretty good deal getting the 1+2 Bundle, but I never really got into the whole Nintendo thing, and I'm too old/not enough time to get started on the whole Zelda/Metroid/Donkey Kong/Smash Bros. stuff.
If there were a few more games like on the Wii that I never got to play (Madworld, No More Heroes 2) or other decent exclusives (Resident Evil?) I might consider it though, if Bayonetta 2 hasn't been ported by then. Can anyone also tell me what the battery life on the touch screen remote is like? Seems like it would be horrible, but I have no idea what battery they've got in it. Also, the extra remotes (gamepad, Wiimote) are still so damn expensive!
