How does that make it any less of a Nintendo exclusive? Microsoft releases literally all its first party titles on PC but calls them exclusives.

Besides, nobody bought a Wii U.

that really tempted me because mainline mario games are the business. but its hard for me to justify buying a console for a single game when nothing on the (close) horizon interests me and i have backlog issues.

i do want MP4 though, so when that gets closer to release i'll probably get one

Mario Odyssey was amazing because it was so refreshingly bizarre and how it consistently rewarded adventurous players doing clever things or trying to exploit game mechanics.

There are moons, especially the racing ones, that actually require you to exploit the cap throwing mechanic to create long jumps that the game never even suggests is possible.

It respects its older fanbase in clever ways. My favorite is the moon you get from looking up to the ceiling of Peach's Castle in FPS mode - only Mario 64 players would even think to do that.

Well duh. They gave it a 10 on Wii U too. The game certainly hasn't aged badly in 3 years and the genre hasn't elevated further since then.

Bayo 2 comes with a download code for 1 if you get the physical version on Switch.

I was hoping it was staying exclusive to Switch so I could eventually sell my copy for 300-400 bucks.

Now the value will crash.

Yeah I really don't think this is going to be a thing when games are available to download from the store.

That's what the max resolution was on 360, Xbox One just runs it like it was a 360 so boom 1080P

Plus this is kinda important to put the 720p into context

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2018-bayonetta-2-switch-is-a-turbocharged-wii-u-port

In the title's most demanding areas, the docked Switch offers anything up to a 10-20fps advantage over the Wii U, giving us a much closer lock to the target 60fps, allowing for much smoother, more responsive action than the original release. This is important: the original Bayonetta's performance deficiencies were eventually overcome on other platforms: PC and Xbox One X, for example. Bayonetta 2 is a Nintendo-exclusive, meaning that the Switch version is our best route forward to a better port.

Frame rate is everything in a game like Bayonetta, so that's actually a pretty big deal.

People tend to act like the Wii U doesn't exist and therefore this is a brand new game

I don't think it works like that. It emulates the game at its 360 native resolution with some extra AA and some screen filtering doesn't it?

If the 360 game had a variable resolution that went up to 1080p that would work but I don't think Bayonetta was one of these games.

People tend to act like anyone actually had a Wii U. It took Switch 9 months to sell as many units as Wii U did in 6 years.

Bayonetta 2 sold less than 1 million copies worldwide.

So it basically is a new game

Lmao

Sure, let's act like the 12 million people who bought a Wii U all sold theirs and bought a Switch right away.

Nobody's hating on the Switch, people just get sick of hearing praise for games that have been out for years

Imagine being this bitter over people being happy a game got re-released on a console people actually want to own.

Where were you when skyrim got re-re-released? or dragon's dogma?
