| Busted said: yeah yeah... i think THQ is saying that to protect the guy and his reputation but not for(or because of) the reasons you may think, you see if Nintendo makes a game that blows away everything that supposedly can be done with the Wii U (not comparing to other plats, so just think of the Wii U alone), and they have amazing graphics again surpassing the ''limitations'' of the system, then this guy is going to be a complete incompetent to the eyes of the world for complaining about those limitations leaving in exposure that the ''limitations'' are just an excuse (remember that this is hypothetical), hence the ''we could run it on an ipad but we don't have the time/resources'' don't get me wrong that is fine, the problem is that the 4A guy said something he shouldn't have said and he shouldn't have said it because of the reasons the THQ guy has listed... not siding with anyone it just kind of bothers me. |
Fact is the Wii U's CPU is slower than the competition which means that they would need to spend extra money to port the game over. Then add the expected sales for this already relatively small IP for a recently released console (whose previous installment showed low interest for mature games) and you will realize that porting the game would be a near idiotic move.
The only scenario where spending extra money on porting the game over to the Wii U would make sense would be if they expected future profit for being loyal to the system's install base, thus increasing sales for future installments. The truth is though that the future is very cloudy, and that current trends indicates that ignoring a Wii U port will result in the most profitable situation for the company.
