Nintendo - Wii U Ports? - View Post

If Wii U sells a lot of systems, and games like Watch_dogs sell well, Wii U will get lots of ports, using UE3, UE4 or whatever. If it has no install base and Watch_Dogs bombs, it won't. Simple as that.

 

Call of Duty and Assassin's Creed bombed on Wii U. I don't see Watch Dogs breaking out. The PS3/360 SKUs will probably sell the best, with PS4/720 picking up some early adopter sales on the PS4/720, then the Wii U version last. 

This is provided the game is even any good to begin with. 

The Nintendo audience wants unique content, not ports. And it's been that way for a long time actually. Which is why all this bruhaha over UE4 on Wii U is silly to begin with. Nintendo fans barely buy multi-plats as is (and this goes back to the GameCube era at least). 

The casual audience only wants dance/party games with the occassional bit of Mario once in a while, but that crowd is thinning out, so the above mentioned Nintendo gamer is primarily what is going to be the Wii U demographic IMO.
