 | piggychan (on 17 April 2012) well it's also available to buy digitally online on XBLA marketplace too. |
 | Metroid33slayer (on 20 January 2012) A pervy dmc that plays great. Has substance as well as style. |
 | enrageorange (on 17 December 2011) 360 version is the best hack and slash this gen. Suprised the ps3 version outsold it considering it was gimped. |
 | yo_john117 (on 24 September 2011) I've always wanted to try this game out but I sadly don't want to even spend $20 on it. BTW I thought this sold more by now. |
 | mjo011 (on 17 September 2011) I'm well into God of War 3, and so far I haven't enjoyed it as much as this game. |
 | MonkeyMan2211 (on 15 June 2011) My friend let me borrow this game, and I completed it... IMO it's an awful game, definitely the worst hack and slash game I've ever played. And it's not at all stupid that Bayonetta's character put people off this game, she's a completely perverted, detestable cunt of a character who's ugly as shit and has a voice so irritating it could make deaf people cry. It's hard to enjoy a game when the main character is so exceedingly dreadful. |
 | blue7x7 (on 15 June 2011) I thought this game had sold better but 1.7 million on both platforms is not bad for a new IP probably the best hack and slash game ever made. It's pretty stupid that people actually don't buy this game because of the way bayonetta looks and acts it's just so dumb but it's their loss they are missing out on a great game. |
 | Hephaestos (on 04 June 2011) I have to say, I was way putt off by the "hottie as main character" aspect, but the game is loads of fun and the charater itself has charisma beyond her physical appearance. |
| postofficebuddy (on 09 January 2011) I think we might be undertracking this in Japan. That bundle had to have done something for sales. |
 | MonstaMack (on 22 December 2010) This GOTY contender is $10 at Amazon right now. It's kinda sad to see a game drop so low in price not even a year after release, but that works for me anyways :) |
 | Fab_GS (on 27 November 2010) Best action game of the year. |
 | Kennyheart (on 21 November 2010) 2nd best action game of the year. |
| Venox2008 (on 04 November 2010) just an awesome game! one of the best hack slashes! |
| f4chaos (on 24 October 2010) bayonetta |
| st_muscat0 (on 28 May 2010) @superbaboonfacex The reason the PS3 version is doing better even though its meant to be inferior is the Japan region. Its a Japanese game that while appealing to Western audiences also appeals to Japanese ones too. With that in mind PS3 software kills 360 software in Japan and there's your reason why the PS3 version is doing better. |
| superbaboonfacex (on 27 May 2010) can't believe 360 sold less you guys got the perfect version of the game no excuses go buy it now!! |
 | Mr Puggsly (on 06 May 2010) @ ArcticGabe Well its a million seller in combined sales already. Legs should be strong as well. In the long run sales will be respectable. |
 | ArcticGabe (on 12 April 2010) Sales ain't very good tbh... |
 | Baddman (on 25 March 2010) GREAT GREAT GAME! |
 | Bagaren85 (on 22 March 2010) Next buy! Cant wait to play it |
| velocista (on 17 March 2010) Im playing this game...and its all that good! im very please!! |
 | Nebulous (on 03 March 2010) One thing that makes me obviously questions these chartz, is the relatively straight line sales taper down. This game was virtually sold out everywhere here in vancouver from essentially the first week, and they just got new stock in approx. 1 month later. Common sense would say, first week sales were probably really high, then relatively dead afterwards, with a big bump again once they got new stock in. Anyways, probably more of a sign that VG Chartz has very little factual sales data to go off, and are mostly just estimating sales based off calculations and assumptions. |
 | vic_viper (on 25 February 2010) @ Puggsly: I seriously hope you're joking, especially in the cases of Oblivion, Halo and particularly Fallout 3. |
 | IxisNaugus (on 19 February 2010) Just got it, probably won't get into it for a while but I've been wanting to play this for a long time I'm pleased with the sales so far, good on Platinum Games, i really like that dev. |
 | --OkeyDokey-- (on 10 February 2010) Adjusted up on both consoles. Great! |
 | binary solo (on 08 February 2010) 1 million to retailers across both consoles. Seems about right with the estimated sold to consumers on this site across both consoles. |
| carsonnik (on 07 February 2010) Sega said that it sold over 1 million already. This is undertracked |
| Mr Puggsly (on 06 February 2010) @ 60Hz Well I actually do play games for the story. But I wouldn't expect Bayonetta to have a good story. Games like Oblivion, Fallout 3, Mass Effect, and Halo though have stories far better than the typical movie or novel. |
| 60Hz (on 04 February 2010) I honestly dont play games for story, it's a bit expensive considering the best medium for stories are either movies or novels, both a lot cheaper than games. Instead i play games for the interaction which is something neither novels or movies can give you... story to me is a left over concept form when you couldn't do interactive entertainment... no one complains about lack of story when they play chess or basketball... |
 | Nightwish224 (on 01 February 2010) You will be mine soon enough! |
 | elzumo (on 31 January 2010) I didn't mind the story. |
 | donsterydo2 (on 30 January 2010) Story is a mess. I skip every cut scene. But gameplay is wooohoooo :D |
 | nickoB (on 29 January 2010) story wise |
| nickoB (on 29 January 2010) anyone find this game seriously annoying? |
 | yusuke93_ita (on 26 January 2010) Chapter 6, awesome game |
 | Boutros (on 25 January 2010) The ad campaing for this game is suprisingly big. |
| IxisNaugus (on 23 January 2010) I didn't expect the X360 version to be doing better here in Europe than the PS3 copy. |
 | Statix (on 23 January 2010) @MonstaMack: Are you really going to blame them considering that many, many more people own PS3s than 360s over there? I mean, what version did you expect them to get when no one owns a 360? |
| MonstaMack (on 21 January 2010) I guess reviews and performance don't matter to many people in Japan considering the leverage it got there. But over time with US sales it should outsell the PS3 version. |
| blue7x7 (on 21 January 2010) This should definitely hit 1 million with both platforms combined maybe 1.5 lifetime. Its already at 660,000 in 2 weeks with both platforms combined. That's good for a game released in January and a new IP. |
 | Barozi (on 21 January 2010) PS3 + 360 version obviously. If it was a 360 exclusive it would have much bigger sales. |
 | disolitude (on 21 January 2010) Yeah its hard to find at the moment in toronto as well. Downtown best buy is sold out... |
| Nebulous (on 21 January 2010) This game is sold out almost every store I've been to around my city (3 million population). According to the EB Games clerk, sounds like Sega really undershipped this game, which is really unfortunate. Can't even find a 360 version on Craigslist... |
 | bmmb1 (on 21 January 2010) @Barozi, Madworld WW LTD is 400k (no Japan yet), Americas LTD is 260k. How is Bayonetta week 1 > Madworld LTD? (without going into stuff like reviews, game length, replayability etc which are all strongly in Bayonetta's favor) |
 | megaman79 (on 20 January 2010) @Barozi, different markets bro. Ofcourse looking at Mirrors Edge doesn't help the case for this either. |
 | italo244 (on 20 January 2010) Well, maybe will show legs. |
| IxisNaugus (on 20 January 2010) I expected slightly better sales to be perfectly honest. I'll get this at some point. |
| Barozi (on 20 January 2010) Bayonetta week 1 > Madworld current LTD Besides that. It only has one week of sales in US and OTHERS. How could anybody already draw a conclusion now ? |
| megaman79 (on 19 January 2010) Mediocre sales for a new japanese independant ip starring a female? Wow, i guess Madworld didn't do so badly then. |
| vic_viper (on 18 January 2010) @Halil23: Where the hell do all you GoW fans come from anyway? Seriously, for a series that hasn't had a game crack 3 million since the first and whose portable entry was utterly humiliated by Crisis Core, you guys seem to be everywhere online. Chalk it up to being a vocal minority I'd wager. At anyrate, hate to crush your tiny nuggets in a vice, but Bayonetta is the new Hack and Slash game to beat according to most sites who have had time to play both. GoW 3 is just more of the same slop, just in hd. Enjoy your gruel kid. |
| 60Hz (on 17 January 2010) Sales are really mediocre on this genre defining title. It's a classic example of sega of america's inability to market their titles. I went looking for this title and it was sold out everywhere but there were tons of thq's dark siders (slightly above average game) on the shelf. Sega obviously under shipped this title - i am patiently waiting for their whole marketing/sales department to be gutted and re-staffed. |
 | DOLBYdigital (on 17 January 2010) This game deserves a lot more sales for this being the 'better' version :( Platinum Games always delivers these amazing epic games that just don't sell as well as generic same old crap. |
 | SaviorX (on 17 January 2010) I saw plenty of ads for this one. |
 | halil23 (on 17 January 2010) @ below. errrr Gow of War 3 says hi!! *sigh* |
 | jesus kung fu magic (on 15 January 2010) WOW...I cant believe I forgot to write something here even though I'm one of the big advocates for this game on this site. Bayonetta is the new top dogin HnS and will be for quite sometime (which is when bayonetta 2 comes out).....gameplay is simply incredible , the boss battles are unparalleled.....this is the most epic fucking game ever!! If you have doubts getting this game remove them , because it doesnt get better than this in HnS ......and even though you may hate the HnS genre because of past games well this game is nothing like games before it as it shits all over them. |
 | Catlana (on 15 January 2010) This game has been simply amazing. |
| DevilishSix (on 15 January 2010) A must buy for anyone who enjoys Ninja Gaiden or DMC, absolute awesome game that deserves better sales, hopefully it will have legs, this new IP needs to be a franchise. |
| jaime713 (on 15 January 2010) Ok I was kind of wrong the Japanese sales are helping but I'm sure the 360 version will pass it soon. Crappy sales anyway and that's what they deserve for fucking things up. I won't buy these game unless is 19.99 and there is absolutely anything left on earth but these |
| jaime713 (on 15 January 2010) Is it me or these game is salling more in the ps3 even though is more crappy there |
| italo244 (on 15 January 2010) But wait, 44k in first day on Others. That is nice. Maybe will stay in 40k this week. I know, the game will hit 1m, maybe 1,5m lifetime and 2,5m PS3+360 combined. |
 | Wandamaximoff (on 15 January 2010) I LOVE this game so much! didnt think i would form the demo but i trusted the reviews and went for it..... AMAZING one of my best games ever |
| blue7x7 (on 14 January 2010) Great sales I don't get why people are saying its bad. It has sold 500,000 for both platforms combined ps3 and xbox. Plus its a new IP and it came out in january where games sell the least due to it being the month after the holidays. So great sales I need to get this game loved the demo. |
 | SHMUPGurus (on 14 January 2010) Best hack 'n slash in a long time! Some of the greatest 10 hours I've spent in a long time! Lots of replay value too because of the shop, costumes, difficulty levels, etc. Do yourself a favor and play this game! |
| Ping_ii (on 14 January 2010) youch!!! |
| Abberon (on 14 January 2010) @ Boneitis: I definetly agree with you. I'm not even looking at this title simply because it's a SEGA game. They've been releasing trash for far too long for me even give one of their games a look. |
 | Shadowfest3 (on 14 January 2010) The demo for this game was really fun, for me that is. I might have to pick this up eventually. |

| donsterydo2 (on 14 January 2010) So much higher in US on X360 than PS3 for this game is quiet unexpected for me even though this version is better, but it's still japanese slasher game. I wonder how the sales will look like in others. |
 | Boneitis (on 14 January 2010) For some reason I think this game would have sold better if Capcom published it. The Sega logo has been on too many crap games for several years. |
 | shinyuhadouken (on 14 January 2010) girly japanese game?? lol wtf? are you serious? |
| SegaWorld (on 13 January 2010) Only 90 000 for a great game like this. I dont understand. |
 | darconi (on 13 January 2010) Why are you guys calling this a "niche" game? GoW, DMC, etc are all fairly mainstream for the "core" audience. |
| --OkeyDokey-- (on 13 January 2010) It's selling just about as well as a girly Japanese game can on xbox. |
 | Strategyking92 (on 13 January 2010) I think this game will have nice legs.. haha. |
 | outlawauron (on 13 January 2010) @italo It's a great opening for a game as niche as it is. I mean, it's not often a game like this comes around. |
 | Aion (on 13 January 2010) Aww it deserves a lot more. |
| krammaii (on 13 January 2010) Great first week for such a niche game. |
| italo244 (on 13 January 2010) Nice oppening? I don't think so... The game has a lot of good reviews, and 90k first week? what the f***? Maybe can hit 1 million, but... will be hard. |
 | SmokedHostage (on 13 January 2010) nice opening |
 | sanadawarrior (on 13 January 2010) Best action game ever imo... |
 | pmaster4 (on 13 January 2010) i really do not like the art style for this game |
 | Hanzor (on 13 January 2010) The Best Action Game you'll find in a long time. Gameplay is awesome. |
 | Serious_frusting (on 13 January 2010) Dont like it |
| yusuke93_ita (on 12 January 2010) 1 million foh sure |
 | Khuutra (on 12 January 2010) This game.... pretty crazy! Very DMC3-like. |
 | d21lewis (on 09 January 2010) I was a little let down at first, but as I played more of it, I realized that I LOVE THIS GAME! |
| ArcticGabe (on 09 January 2010) I'm pretty sure this is going to hit a million which is a good result. |
 | Jski (on 08 January 2010) It looks like a fun game but i was doing a bit of looking at what pepole have recorded on it and the game looks super short. 6hr of game play not wroth 60$. Has any one played it all the way though and has a good idea of how much game play there is and replay? |
 | Moongoddess256 (on 04 January 2010) I have a feeling this isn't going to sell that well, and that makes me sad :( |
 | Luthor (on 02 January 2010) The game is out in France o_O I got mine! |
| SaviorX (on 01 January 2010) Just saw the commercial for it. |
 | lurkerwithnosoul (on 25 December 2009) Already pre ordered it. Canīt wait. :) |
 | ameratsu (on 25 December 2009) will buy day one |
| Boneitis (on 22 December 2009) Not doing too bad in Japan. I'd like to see this game sell at least a million. |
 | pbroy (on 20 December 2009) This game is off the hook. Played the demo on the OXM disc. LOVE IT!!! |
 | LordMatrix (on 15 December 2009) This is not even close to the highest sellign X360 title in japan. Go look at Star Ocean:TLH, Tales of Vesperia and Blue Dragon if you don't believe me. |
 | Seece (on 13 December 2009) Pretty good for a multiplat in Japan, can the western market push it to a million? |
 | AnthonyW86 (on 10 December 2009) @Rawnchie: What do you mean, it's the highest selling 360 game only because it's better than another version, although actual sales are bad....? |
 | Rawnchie14 (on 09 December 2009) Highest selling 360 game, since this game, is significantly better than the PS3 counterpart. |
| AnthonyW86 (on 09 December 2009) This must be the lowest selling ''perfect'' scored game in history... Hope western sales will be better because i love the genre. |
| Bagaren85 (on 26 November 2009) I want this! |
| IxisNaugus (on 25 November 2009) Looking forward to this one! |
| Strategyking92 (on 07 November 2009) @ dinges no. It would need about 4 more of these weeks. |
| Rawnchie14 (on 05 November 2009) This game's demo is amazing, especially on the 360 =P |
 | Dinges (on 05 November 2009) This might get the highest sales of a 360 game in Japan. |
| piggychan (on 11 October 2009) yup same here. love the japanese demo |
| SmokedHostage (on 05 June 2009) DO WANT! |
