not bad at all. They need to put that guy on wiiu as well.


So it can bomb and publishers have more of a reason to not support the Wii U? No, that's not what the Wii U needs.

If I were a Wii U owner I wouldn't want every Ps360 game to come to the Wii U. I would only want the games that would be a clear financial success so others would see it's a viable platform for their games.

Dark Soul's fanbase is on the Ps360 right now. Wii U only owners would have little incentive to pick up the game being they didn't play the first. This game is a moderate success for a niche title. The title most likely wouldn't sell well with the user base and demographics combination.

The games I would want are the new IP's that don't have a fanbase yet (watch dogs). I would want huge games that guarentee millions of sales no matter what (CoD & GTA). When those games penetrate the Wii U market and the user base starts buying those that's when you will see a stronger 3rd party support. But until then if niche games like this release and recieve poor sales it will scare off 3rd party

Well the dark souls fanbase was only on ps3 at one point with demon souls the fanbase can expand. i want old and new franchises for the wiiu anynew game can help if its released at the same time as the other versions. Not trying to turn this into anything though.  also Dark souls is no longer niche it sold 2 million copies its a pretty popular franchise. 

1 game selling 2.4mil on 3 systems doesn't constitute as pretty popular. I bet DS2 sees drop in sales. As for the fanbase being on Ps3 there are two things. 1: this game wasn't called Demon's Souls 2 for a reason. 2: it doubled 360's sales.

So in conclusion, if this were to release on the Wii U I could see 360's sales doubling the Wii U's sales on top of already sales drop. So something like 250-300k sales for the Wii U. Trust me that would scare 3rd parties off. If there are more games like that then there are successes then the only examples companies would be seeing are the flops.

i think the sales will increase honestly and the wiiu version selling 300k on top of what the other versions will sell would be pretty good. If you dont think its pretty popular why would it scare off third party. Call of duty bombing on wiiu would scare them not something you dont consider pretty popular.
