Im sure most of those guys would have bought DLC even if they did get it, im thinking no. If lack of DLC is what really pissed them off(and im doubting it) then they werent really big into the game to begin with.
That last statement is a load of nonsense. Its not like NO Ninty games or even games on Ninty systems doesnt have bugs. MK7 had a patch, MK for DS really needed to be patched. Metroid other M needed a patch, SS had a glitch. I couldnt finish Bully cause it had a glitch. GE crashed on me numerous times. Hell i had the Wii itself crash on me numerous times. Maybe its not so much that MS/SOny fans are more accepting of bugs than Ninty fans, maybe its just that these bug heavy games dont even exist on Ninty platforms in the first place (Skyrim).

It wasn't just the DLC itself, it was that they were angry over being promised it last time only to miss out, and about being treated as second class citizens.
And NIntendo games are far, far less glitchy than those of the vast majority of other devs. You'd never have a Nintendo game launch in the state that Ghost WIi U did. The games you mentioned were not only exceptions to the rule, but had only isolated problems, not the near constant barrage of bugs a lot of AAA third party games have these days.

I can see how being promised it would suck, however that doesnt change my intial point that these types of games simply dont fit the WIi u demograph(and Ninty) all that well.
There wouldnt be alot of games period released in the state that Ghosts did, BUT i havent played the game and most reviews havent made mention of it, but ill take your word for it anyway. What are these numerous AAA games that release with so much bugs? NVM it really doesnt add to the topic

Those kind of games may not fit Ninty's audience as well as Xbox's or Playstation's, but they can sell well enough on Ninty systems to be profitable. Unfortunately, from what I gathered reading the official forums, that audience got burned by broken promises and turned their back on the franchise.
There's a lot of anger on those boards. First every other thread was "DLC or no buy" then after we found out it wasn't coming, every other thread was "Treyarch is screwing their fans, I'm not buying anymore". Me, I couldn't care less, I still bought it day 1, and I don't regret it.

sales says otherwise unless you think it profitted with such low numbers. Its not just COD its other 3rd party games as well.
I get that people felt scewed but its business maybe Acti didnt feel the need to add DLC support for a version that didnt even sell abobe 250,000
