Bayonetta

Five years ago, PlatinumGames introduced us to Bayonetta, the most wicked, gun-toting witch to ever grace video game consoles.

It's already halfway through the month, but better late then never — Nintendo is celebrating Women's History Month by featuring its most beloved female characters.

A while back, Platinum Games joked about a potential Bayonetta platformer. Today, the developer released it as an in-browser game you could play for free.

Imbuing the traditional and nostalgia-inspiring looks of Link, Samus and Princess Peach with the sleek, sultry style of our favorite Umbra Witch was no easy task, but Nintendo and Platinum Games were able to pull it off (or at least unbutton it a bit).

Does Nintendo's Wii U provide the best version of the original Bayonetta when compared to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 ports? Check these videos and find out.

Bayonetta has never looked (or sounded) better than she does in this dubbed trailer for Funimation's animated film, 'Bayonetta: Bloody Fate.'

What could be hotter than Bayonetta? Being able to play online co-op with her best frenemy. Jeanne, in Bayonetta 2.

Nintendo has stepped in to clarify some of the confusion about how the first Bayonetta title will be included with its sequel for free.

The company known for putting 'Dragon Ball Z,' 'One Piece' and 'Attack on Titan' on North American TVs will be bringing us an animated, full-length Bayonetta film.
