Come on, now.  Ubisoft has it out for Nintendo?

You know why they're doing this as well as I do.  They don't think the DLC will sell enough to be a worthwhile investment.  Sales for the Wii U version are going to be low by default.  On top of that is the fact that only a low percentage of those who buy the full game end up buying DLC.  I can't say for sure, but I'd bet my sister's cat that number is lower on Nintendo consoles than on the other two.

They probably think it wouldn't make back the money it would cost to port the Wii U versions of the DLC, that it might put them behind schedule on the other versions, and they'd probably be right.

You don't say? With Wii U's install base at what, under 4 million, and the other two at just under 80 million each? Extraordinary!

Er ... context.  I've underlined the relevant word for you.
