Hero-of-Time Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 Amazon.de still has NO version available to pre-order. Just a template version...Is there any chance we'll get the First Print edition in Germany? Unless some unit's have been specifically allocated then I don't think so. The thing has now sold out everywhere.
ArtMediocre Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 There are three bundles: The single disk version, which is just Bayonetta 2, there is the double pack, which consists of Bayonetta and Bayonetta 2, both on physical disk and it seems as though they both have their own boxes, but come together in one card case. Finally, there is the must have masterpiece that is the first print edition, which is both games, both in separate proper cases but packaged in an awesome commemorative box, which includes art book! http://store.nintendo.co.uk/wii-u/bayonetta-2.list Wait, so the single disk version of Bayonetta 2 don't include the Download Code of Bayonetta 1 anymore? They charge you £10 extra for the first game? I don't mind paying for it, but when they've been advertising that Bayonetta 1 would be included as a free download, it's kinda a letdown. Please correct me if I'm wrong though, and if this is about the physical copy only .

Please correct me if I'm wrong though, and if this is about the physical copy only . Nintendo have never advertised Bayonetta 1 as free in Europe. Amazon put it on their listing by mistake. Also, the double price is the standard price of a Wii U game, while the single version is £10 cheaper (for some reason, Hyrule Warriors is cheaper over here, but standard price in the USA)

Gonna get me that special version for sure! How do I thank posts over here? (Not really the post, but Cube anyway :P)
dazzybee Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 I emailed them and they said I would get the version with Bayonetta 1 in as well. I would suggest emailing them, quoting your order number I did that, but their response was a little vague. We SHOULD etc But they have both versions on, and my order is still the single disk version so I don't know what's happening.

(Not really the post, but Cube anyway :P) It was never made clear that the offer wasn't available over here, which is why there's a mess. You need a certain amount of posts to be able to thank. I'm not quite sure what to do about Amazon, as Bayonetta will be my main game for Extra Life. I don't think I'll risk it if they don't change the actual order.
dazzybee Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 Amazon just emailed and said it's the standard version and everyone who ordered it won't get the dual disk version. They'll be sending emails out today.

S.C.G Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 Why not cancel and pre-order with ShopTo instead, they still have stock of the Bayonetta 1&2 pack for just £39.85 too, less still if you're a gold member. : peace: http://www.shopto.net/video-games/wiiu/WIIUBA02-bayonetta-2-inc-bayonetta-1
D_prOdigy Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 I don't understand how ShopTo's pre-order system works. I've clicked pre-order and it has gone into my pre-order page. Okay. So now what? It says I can pre-pay now but it also says I don't have to. So what if I don't? It will just take the payment out automatically upon dispatch? Without asking me for final confirmation or verification or anything? pls help me understand.

So long as you have your card details on there and there is money in your account you will be charged when they ship the game. If you do opt to pay early though, you can pay/part pay with Paypal which can be useful.

Clownferret Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 This game wasn't really on my radar but the idea of the free game is tempting me. So my question is what game is this comparable to and is it worth me buying if it's not really my bag.

Wii Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 (edited) This game wasn't really on my radar but the idea of the free game is tempting me. So my question is what game is this comparable to and is it worth me buying if it's not really my bag. I've no experience I think of what to compare it to. The nearest I can think of is Soul Calibur but in an action game. I definitely think it's worth it. I've it pre ordered for €39.14 including transit insurance. If I don't like it I can always sell it and make back most of if not all my money. I've no intention of sell, I never sell my games. Gamestop the robbing mongrels are charging €60. It's available here, cheaper in Euro than it is in Sterling and it's the same across the European branches of its site: http://www.ie.wowhd.com/games/bayonetta-2-nintendo-wii-u/dp/33166459#bc=607e Edited September 9, 2014 by Wii
Cube Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 It's closest to Devil May Cry and Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance. The next closest would probably be the likes of Ninja Gaiden or God of War (quite a few differences, but same genre).

The next closest would probably be the likes of Ninja Gaiden or God of War (quite a few differences, but same genre). See I haven't played those being Ninty only. I've Ninja Gaiden 3 for Wii U sealed but I'll keep it that way for the collection. Hear it's not stellar.
Clownferret Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 I haven't played any of the above mentioned games so I guess that's a sign that this game is not for me (sad face)
Wii Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 I haven't played any of the above mentioned games so I guess that's a sign that this game is not for me (sad face) Sure neither have I and I'm only guessing it'll be like Soul Calibur in relation to combos. It looks fantastic, tonnes of fan service, online, manic gameplay, 2 games for the price of 1. What's not to love? Take a chance, I am.
Fierce_LiNk Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 I haven't played any of the above mentioned games so I guess that's a sign that this game is not for me (sad face) Just take a punt and get it. Nothing ventured, nothing gained and all that.

Hear it's not stellar. Well, the next closest thing on Nintendo platforms is Sonic Unleashed's Warehog sections (but done much better).
dazzybee Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 I haven't played any of the above mentioned games so I guess that's a sign that this game is not for me (sad face) Be more positive, because you haven't played them you have no idea if they're not for you. £40 for two games, go for it! I've played it, it's brilliant!
RedShell Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 Well, the next closest thing on Nintendo platforms is Sonic Unleashed's Warehog sections (but done much better).I'd say Wonderful 101 is the closest thing. Anyone that doesn't enjoy the gameplay in that, probably won't enjoy Bayonetta 1/2.
dazzybee Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 I'd say Wonderful 101 is the closest thing. Anyone that doesn't enjoy the gameplay in that, probably won't enjoy Bayonetta 1/2. I'd disagree with this to be honest. I like wonderful 101 a lot, but I don't think it plays that similarly. From what I played bayonetta 2 plays much better, way more fluid, less chaotic (it IS chaotic, but you always have a sense of what is happening, w101 a lot of the time I didn't know what was going on and just button mashed like crazy). It definitely feels more like ninja gaiden, devil may cry...
