Incredibly dumb decision.
They are including a game for free, I cant see how they could do that.Undermine your profit margins more Nintendo.
Who would wanna deal with Nintendo's online infrastructure anyways
That is a good thing overall. No one wants to deal with Nintendo online system anyway.
That is just dumb. Get the disk and just never take it out of the console?I'm all digital on both Wii U and PS4. Guess I'm not picking up Bayonetta after all.
That's messed up, but honestly I don't see any upside in partaking in Nintendo's digital service to begin with. They need to fix their account shit, to date I've only purchased the 30 cent VC games promotion on the Wii U shop because of it.
So pray your WiiU don't break?
Why are people saying it's a good thing? I can see not caring given Nintendo's policies, but how on earth are people thinking this is remotely a positive thing?
are you guys really dumb enough to completely fail to realize there's plenty of countries with retail price discrepancies on a single region or dou you just wanna defend something you like for the sake of it?
A wiiU retail games costs $100+ where I live (and in brazil, and argentina, and, and, and). We get the US price on the eShop
think for a minute ffs, I cant believe there's a handful of people here posting the same thing as "crisis adverted". not everone lives in the US.
if your Wii U breaks Nintendo will work with you to get your games back with a support phone call.
if your Wii U is stolen nintendo will work to give you your games with a police report.
the vast majority of the "I lost all of my games!!!!!" posts are people either selling their system and buying it later, or deleting their NNID while glossing past the big warning that says "you will lose all of your stuff"
the only real issue with the system (aside from user stupidity) is you can only download the titles to one system. So I buy Ace Attorney 5 and I can only play it on the 3DS I bought it on. Not a big deal with Wii U... a pretty major deal with 3DS where I might play my wife's or daughter's...
yupso get the physical version?
crisis averted?
Can't say that is convenient, but at least they ill work with you.
as I said... it's not the greatest... but on Wii U it has virtually no effect on me and is certainly worth the convenience. On 3DS it forces me to buy everything physical if possible which is horrible given the inconvenience/annoyance of carts/cards.
I feel like this must some limitation on the eshop where multiple downloads cannot be granted from a single purchase or something lame like that.
It might also be that bayo 1 doesn't show up as an eshop title due to an agreement with Sega and therefore would be restricted to a physical product? Has bayo 1 even been confirmed to show up on the eshop? Because maybe it will not be free as it is showing up later on the eshop than bayo 2.
It sucks but honestly Bayo 1 is such a surprise and it's such a delight that it is even coming out on the Wii U that I can't get remotely upset over this.
Doesn't bother me as I refuse to buy any digital version of a retail game because of Nintendo's archaic policies, and I encourage everyone else to buy retail as well.
But they still should have gone the extra mile to secure Bayonetta 1 for all scenarios. The retail experience isn't as convenient / ubiquitous as it is in the USA, and there are definitely people who want to develop a Wii U digital library.
Those people deserve equal treatment.

How much is Bayonetta on PSN & Xbox Marketplace?
Maybe because it's on the same disc and the download file would be huge?
Yeah fuck consumer choice!Stupid, but whatever, getting the physical copy anyway. Fuck digital.
This.
Some users here really like creating unnecessary problems for themselves.
I understand the convenience of digital only games but dam people is it that hard to put a disc in a system? And if most of you are "all digital" anyway why not just leave Bayo in the disc drive? Basically the same thing no? Didn't think laziness could achieve another level.
No such thing is mentioned on the Japanese site.

They put Bayonetta and Bayonetta 2 together with Package/Download versions of the game.
