    Sorry if this has been asked/answered before, but.

    I've just picked up the digital copy of Bayonetta 1 and 2 through the Nintendo eShop.

    While playing the first game with the GamePad there are MANY times when the game will pause with a message telling me that communications between the WiiU and the GamePad have been interrupted and to press a button to continue.

    While it's not a HUGE deal, it's sort of annoying, and sometimes jarring depending on the action at the time.

    It's done it a lot during combat which really blows in the middle of a combo or trying to dodge.

    Has anyone else experienced this? Is there something I need to do to fix it?

    Move closer to the Wii U? Is there a bunch of stuff in between the system and the pad? Never had that problem.

    @melvargh:

    I'm pretty close now, also I've never had this problem at this distance with any other game.

    My recommendation would be to buy a Pro Controller. It's a better controller anyway, and I never had any issues playing that way.

    Yeah, I've got that a bit but do have other tech in the way. Think it's just that they're so concerned about response in this game that they want to flag it up.

    Should try a resync having changed some other wireless stuff recently.

    @retrometal: As others have said, resyncing the game pad should help. You might also want to check your system updates to see if there's anything. I know I had the same problem a while back and got an update that helped. I don't experience connection difficulties anymore unless the game pad is low on power, so be aware of it charge as well.
