I knew someone from Nintendo would read my letter.

they are probably still trying to read your letter due to all the typis that is most definitely embedded within it. give it about 6 months they will get back to you.

I was thinking more...we have a character who's explicitly sexy for once, how to we garner the most attention?

Also, this sort of thing happens in Japan a lot, and I'm not talking about the doujins - need I bring up "Playboy Luffy"?

I'm confused, is Samus not explicitly sexually attractive (barring any subjectiveness)?

Back in the late 80s when Metroid debuted this may have been dubious, but at this point EVERYONE knows Samus is a woman, and I can't think of a single game, main or otherwise where she doesn't appear in a suit either skimpy or skintight.

On another random note, I find it hilarious that they'd use Playboy to garner attention, because who reads Playboy anymore? Of course, it'd be EXTREMELY bad PR to go where the attention really is at.

Samus is more shameless eye-candy. Bayonetta is full-blown sexy in every way imaginable

Samus is an attractive woman. Bayonetta is a full-on sexy character who absolutely flaunts it. That's the type of woman a mag like Playboy is good for showing off.

Samus's character has never been overtly sexual.

So Anakin kneels before Monster Mash and pledges his loyalty to the graveyard smash.

Hm, I didn't expect that, despite being incredibly obvious. But to be honest, it's perfect advertising: Bayonetaa is all about hack'n'innuendo, but Jeanne herself is the most blatant sexiness factor. It's playful, it's teasing, and no touching allowed - just the kind of stuff you find in a Playboy magazine. Besides, that's probably one of the best ways to reach part of the target audience.

Exactly! Not to mention that Samus' general appearance is still very much focused on her as a strong woman (with one exception...), reinforced by her Varia Suit.

Interesting timing. Just as a certain feminist is attacking the game industry Nintendo goes and pulls a stunt like this. IMO the focus of Bayonatta 2 should be on game play and not on the perceived attractiveness of the main character. All this does in give ammo to the angry left and reinforce their message. I can't see this do anything but hurt Nintendo in the long run.

This is so awesome. I love it. The pictures are really tame though, which is too bad - but the concept itself is great. The bayonetta promotion is all over the playboy website

I literally have no words. I'm just waiting for the heading to fall off and it's revealed to be a Play4Real article.
