This has nothing to do with wii u sales but with walmarts weird way of making nintendo family friendly! The thing is if you live in a small area with a small walmart most T-M rated games wont see the shelves unless backed by nintendo themselves!!! Dont expext much more than those mature launch games at your walmart with exception of high sellers like cod/ac4.3ds is the same way my walmart didn't get castlevania in and never got in resident evil but it still has a big selection! This happened with the ds, wii, and gamecube if theres a reason for some 3rd party games not selling well its because one of the worlds largest retailers ( walmart ) not stocking their games at all of their stores in order to show they have a family alternative in the smaller markets. I live in Bethany, Mo. wanted Mad World for wii but it didnt come to my walmart,I drove 37 miles to large town Cameron, Mo. and it wasn't there finally drove to Kansas City and guess what in the large market they carried the game an hour drive later I finally played a mature 3 party game! The same thing happened with re4 on gamecube, walmart just skipped out on the smaller town walmarts even though we all know how much of a drought it was at the end of gamecubes life cycle it would have sold well everywhere instead you would have to drive or go online cause the convenience of getting it at your local store wasnt there and if your not hardcore about that game youll forget about it = lesser sales!!!!My walmart got lego city game but no monster hunter 3 so looks like the trend will continue and people will blame nintendo for this and think 3rd party games dont sell on nintendo because people dont want them, but in reality there not in all stores and thats were most games are bought!! Theres a reason that games like just dance and m/s at olympics and other ( family friendly) games sell well and mature offerings like no more heroes doesn't!
