Yesterday we shared with you the first Media Create sales figures for Bayonetta 2 and the Bayonetta Non-Stop Climax Edition in Japan.
Today Famitsu has released their very own sales figures, showing similar numbers to what Media Create has provided. Bayonetta Non-Stop Climax Edition moved 12,155 units, and Bayonetta 2 sold 9471 copies.
Unsurprisingly, the sell through rate for the Climax Edition was between 80% to 100%, since demand was high. What’s shocking is the sell through rate for Bayonetta 2 – Famitsu pegged it between 20% to 40% of initial shipment sold.
This doesn’t really paint a good picture for Bayonetta 2’s future on Nintendo Switch in the land of the rising sun. One theory to this is the higher price Japanese customers are paying for both Bayonetta 2 and Bayonetta 1 as compared to other countries in the west.

This is what Nintendo gets for being so bloody cheap. They say that they are delaying the 64GB game cards, yet Not even they have ever used a 32GB game card.(Which Bayonetta and Bayonetta 2 would fit with space to spare!) Only 12,155 copys of Climax edition....get out of here with that BS!!!
I thk most Nintendo fans had play bayonetta 1 & 2.... Stop producing old games and reuse it in new console... Come out something new....
Let's be honest, it's not really a great game in the first place.
