Platinum has had some really positive things to say about Nintendo. With how Nintendo has been promoting Bayonetta the series has received more attention than ever before which has Platinum games excited for the release of Bayonetta 2. Platinum had this to say about their experience with Nintendo.
“Believe it or not, you don’t really get the chance to convey what you want about the game, or show it to your fans in such a direct way so often, so it felt great to be able to take part in Treehouse Live, and I hope to be able to do more events like it in the future. Also, as a game fan myself, it was pretty cool to see Miyamoto-san and Tezuka-san (Yoshi’s Woolly World) up so close! I heard 60,000 people tuned in to hear about Bayonetta 2. Normal numbers for attendees at a conference stop around the 100s, so it’s hard for me to even imagine that large of a crowd.”
So not only did the company get to be creative with their game, but the people tuning in for Bayonetta 2 far exceeded the first game. It’s pretty clear that Platinum games will want to design more games with Nintendo. If that wasn’t enough promotion there’s more to Bayonetta than the games.
Funimation revealed that an anime based off the game will be produced by the same creators of Afro Samurai We have some information about the anime but not much at the moment. My question is how this anime will relate to the continuity of the games, but one thing is clear, we’re going to see a whole lot more of Bayonetta.
