Bayonetta 1 and 2 is being teased for the Nintendo Switch

ddx1wixumaa0_8f.jpg

It appears that Platinum's new Japanese twitter account has tweeted the above images in the famous neon Joycon colors of neon red and blue. Could it be a potential tease for the fan favorite Bayonetta series to release on the Nintendo Switch? With the Bayonetta creator recently announcing that he does indeed have plans for Bayonetta 3 it would make perfect sense for Platinum games to re-release the first two games on the switch so the fans can enjoy the whole trilogy!

Yeah, I picked mine up for less than £20, still sealed.
...but if anyone's selling the Bayonetta 1+2 double pack, they're likely to get more for it than the Switch one will cost - it's becoming quite collectible.
The Double Pack? Only thing that differs that from the normal releases is the outer box, that's it.

You can get Bayonetta 1 from Grainger Games for £10 though they tend to drop it to £7 at times. Bayonetta 2 isn't worth much these days either.

Depends on the edition. Ebay price for the European double pack is +£30, but the 'first print' edition is upwards of £75.

hmm you might be right, but I see no point in keeping it in the collection, unless I wanna do comparisons.
I only have the single Bayonetta 2 for WiiU :/

Well, the Double Pack and First Print Edition are completely different.

The image could indicate Bayonetta 3 is on the way. 1 + 2 = 3.

But if Platinum Games and Nintendo want to take the lazy path then they'll just release B1&2 instead.

why not both? for those who haven't had a chance to play it because it releasesed on the wii u can pick up 1&2 and those who are ready for 3 go pick it up, sadly I never got to getting a wii u :/

Because that would push back Bayonetta 3. There are always drawbacks when companies are making remasters/deluxe versions over new games of X series.

It's likely minimal work they have to, a port shouldn't be the same as a full development since they have all the files already

If they want to have it run smoothly they'll probably need to spend a considerable amount of time so it's not just a 'minimal work' sort of thing. It's good to see remasters/deluxe versions of old games but no one can deny the effect it has on new games.

*cough cough ps3 bayo*
I didn't say they should take minimal time I just said it won't take as long as a full game, besides, they would be thinking about the mass market porting it(perticularly bayo 2) to switch since unfortunately the wii u is a bit of a minority with how porely it sold, I still wish the wii u had sold better so 3rd partys would be more willing out the gate on switch

    You should update the 360 to newest dash before RGHing it yes. But not a big deal if you don't, you can install new dash/avatar updates after. It's just easier to do it auto online before, instead manual offline after.

    @BigOnYa I wanted to ask you about your experience with seeing south park. Most of the people a bit younger like my younger brother and cousins that are a few younger than me that saw kids found south park funny because of the curse words, kids at school, that seemed like liking the show on a very basic level.

    I could not quite have a in depth discussion of the show.

    How was it for you? As an adult. What did you find the most interesting part about it. Did you relate to the parents of the kids and their situations. Was it satires, the commentary on society. The references on celebrities' and pop culture.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I remember seeing the very first episode back in the day, and have watched every episode since. I used to set my VCR to record them even, shows how long ago.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just like any comedies really, and cartoons have always been a favorite of mine. Family guy, American Dad, Futurama, Cleveland Show, Simpsons - I like them all.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    South Park is great cause they always touch on relavent issues going on today, and make something funny out of it.
