I bet people complained about the battle system being too mindless and automatic. Well, I've played through all the chapters, and I'll just say one thing:
You cannot play the entire game by just pressing "auto-battle".
As stated by the 10th Rider, let's not forget Retro Studios and whatever their new game will be :)
Bayonetta 2 is exclusive to the Wii U.
I'm kinda hoping that the first Bayonetta could make its way to the Wii U as well. May be unlikely but still.
I really hope this game stays exclusive to the Wii U. Otherwise, not many will buy it if the game could also be played on other consoles that people already own (PS3 or 360).
Have you forgotten the Wii U's recent gargantuan boost in sales after Xbox One's reveal? I don't know about the PS4, but how do you expect the Xbox One to sell more units than the Wii U in that short amount of time? Also, the Wii U isn't even a year old, and it's soon getting its heavy hitters. Both the PS4 and Xbox will have to wait a while for their game library to grow; therefore, people will likely hold off for a while before getting either consoles.
A...
Hopefully this time there won't be any nasty conflicts among Sega's members or near-death experiences while making this game (Sonic X-treme had these which caused it to be canceled).
By the time the Wii U sales report for May and later months arrive, 3rd party developers will no longer be able to use the Wii U's "low user base" excuse.
EA: "We are actually going to make games for the Wii U after all!"
* won't bring "Rivals" to it *
EA is so unprofessional (saying this is being extremely generous).
At first glance, the console looks like a VCR.
Regardless, I still have faith in them. Since they were able to make a big comeback for the 3DS by releasing more games, the same thing can happen to the Wii U.

Better question:
Why would it even cross your mind to think that Nintendo should go 3rd party.
Nintendo becoming 3rd party is out of the question.
The overwhelming hate that Nintendo keeps getting makes me want to to support them more than ever now.
Keep dreaming, Peter.
"Man, it's always risky running with rumors from 4chan."
Kinda off-topic, but I'm starting to think N4G, itself, is becoming like 4chan (with all the constant hating and rumors flying around in this site).
"Its going to be weird seeing Mario and Zelda on my 720 and PS4 but I will get use to it just like I did with Sonic."
Keep dreaming.
Nintendo "haters" (and haters in general) seriously need to grow up and keep their stupid rants to themselves.
That's quite an accomplishment. I play a lot RPG games, but was initially bored with FFXIII's early chapters (they were also difficult). Maybe that's where the game got it's negative reputation. I guess your friends persevered because the later half of the game was very interesting.
Something tells me that none of you guys are willing to give "Lightning Returns" a chance.
