So uhh......is it going to be $15?
If not then well.
If not then well.
First things first: focus on letting Nintendo know you want the game, and then worry about the price.

I'm in the same boat as I'm really only keeping my 360 for three games. I'd love to be able to get rid of it.
Money?

Oh dear god yes, then i can sell my ps3 version and have 1 and 2 together on Wiiu!
How many copies do you expect it would sell?
Build some fan base for Bayonetta on the Wii U before the second game comes out so that it might maybe sell better?
There might be Wii U / Wii only owners who have never played the game before who could be introduced to the series.
At least 800.
enough so that there is a 3 bayonetta
Not bad. Where do I sign?

If this goes through, Nintendo's gonna go bankrupt.

Yeah'd and commented!
1080p kinda enhancement?
the voices of the internet for this franchise was vital, but a tenth of you guys have played or bought the game. and thats the major problem.
joined the party already late in 2010 but was totally worth it. this is a true game.
i highly doubt that i will double dip, but i hope the few nintendo fans get a chance to play this on a nintendo console.

Because some of us don't want to buy a 360 to play B1?

So looking around, the campaign's been posted at Sonic Stadium, Wii U IGN Boards, and GameFAQs' Wii U board.
Not too bad, but hopefully people are spreading elsewhere.
Edit: Tweeted to Emily Rogers, hope she passes it along.

I'm afraid recently Kamiya ruled out the possibility of a third iteration, hinting that Bayonetta 2 will be the last one game of the series regardless of sales.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Really depends on the contract. Given SEGA's name being plastered over the Bayonetta 2 announcement, I think SEGA still retains ownership/rights to the franchise as a whole, even if Nintendo has licensing/publishing rights and exclusivity to Bayonetta 2 as an individual product.
At a rough guess, 99.9999999% of people who want to play B1 have already. It'd be a waste of money. Nintendo need to spend that money on better things.

Doesn't read OPs, especially not his own
I'm in aswell
Honestly I could see a lot of WiiU owners not owning a 360 and not having the chance to play it before. Sure it's not money Ninty needs to spend but it could help grow the franchise and they have no shortage of money.
Besides it's not like much else is happening on the WiiU anyway.

That's a hell of a rough guess.
Especially with people still wanting a PC port.
Buuuuuuuuut 99.9999999% it is because reasons.

I said no not because of IP ownership EC but because if it was up to SEGA no action would be what they do. Why would they pass on Bayo2 and go ahead on Bayo1 port for Wii U this late?
still Sega is a strange company
If the series is finished at Bayo2 which I think it will because I don't see PG wanting the IP to be tied down by SEGA it is even more reason for SEGA to be less excited to make moves for it.
The Anime did not look all that impressive to carry the brand forward

Nintendo said they want to growth the franchise, so I'm not sure if its finished after 2. Kamiya might not be interested in it, but there is still Hashimoto.

maybe they meant in context to why they funded Bayo2 when the project was all but dead?
I find it hard to see Nintendo growing any IP outside of Mario and Family

Cool, I'm on board.

Nah it sounds like the want the franchise to become bigger and expand upon it. That doesn't mean they changed their mind since then, but who knows.

Cool!
Added a few posts that were missing. Would be good to create some new posts daily and keep them popular.
Since Miiverse is moderated I guess they will see it regardless of the community, as long as the volume is high.

Between the PS3 version being terrible (and assuming a new port would be handled by PG themselves) and a lack of exposure of the IP generally, I think a Wii U version of Bayo 1 is a fantastic idea.
"Bring it."
I think so, yes. Nintendo monitors all boards, and W101's is unquestionably the largest Miiverse representation of the audience they're attempting to lure with their Bayo 2 investment.
