Black Ops II on WiiU has only managed 160k, Crysis isn't anywhere near as popular.


There is no money to be made from it. Pretty simple.

Now I wonder why this post was ignored?

This is the truth people. Porting it to WiiU in 2013 makes no business sense. Plain and simple.

 

Those resources are better placed elsewhere.

It's a very front-loaded game that released on a console that had a very small install base after everyone who wanted it had already bought it.

Give me a synchonized release, when the Wii U has a compable install base and then we'll talk.

It also requires Nintendo to put in the effort to create that userbase though, just as Sony and MS did.

That last part is very debatable, since third party games are mainly what sold those systems.

But anyways, Nintendo only needs, like 10 million sold consoles and a synchronized release for the next CoD to theoretically sell decently on it.

Yes, but it can't be denied that shooters sell the way they do on PS3 because Sony put in the effort as well to grow that userbase right from the get go and continue to do so.

Nintendo had Call of Duty on the Wii. They should have built on that with 1st party offerings to try and further establish a shooter base.

 

I am just saying that everyone is quick to blame EA for not bringing Crysis 3 to WiiU, meanwhile bringing Crysis 3 to WiiU makes no sense at all for EA.
