bayonetta


Well it looks like Platinum Games has struck...uhm...Platinum with their sexy action romp, man juice in the pants, extravaganza.  Sega has released numbers showing sales of 1,100,000 million units sold on both the PS3 and the 360.

Congratulations Hideki Kamiya!

Now if you will excuse me, I have a date with a bottle of AstroGlide and a perfect dodge mechanic.

Hot tip from Siliconera

UPDATE: Joystiq is reporting that Bayonetta was only released in Japan during the period covered by this financial report.  So its looking like that 1.1 million sales is Japan only.

    I don't mean to be a negative nancy or anything.

    But "Worldwide on both platforms" is exactly a huge success. Especially since the game did pretty well in Japan. The January NPDs will be out soon enough. Then we will see them moment of truth.

    From what I hear, Darksiders stomped it in the US. But who knows.

    Brilliant, its good to see Bayonetta doing so well, lets just hope Yakuza 3 does just as good even with all the big releases around it.

    What other countries besides Japan do these numbers include? If it's just Japan and Bayonetta does decent in the U.S. there may be hope yet.

    I'm happy for Platinum Games, I hope to see great things from in the future.

    I've kind of gone back and forth on whether I want to see a sequel to this game, I think I've finally settled on NO. I think that Platinum Games should move to something else after the success of Bayonetta.

    If the third act of this game wasn't so bad, it'd easily be one of my favorites from 2009.
