And what is the excuse for the flop of Wonderfull 101??? Self sabotage by advertising only for other plats? Lack of DLC? Inferior port? Or simply the truth that Nintendo owners are more prone to buy Ninty stuff (which I endorse)??

And about releasing on WiiU simply because PS4Xbone fanbase will be low... 40k sales is pretty abismal to help, and even when Ninty had more than 50% userbase with Wii, CoD didn't even sold close to any of the other plats with really inferior sales at the time.

7 Million on Xbox360, 5.07 on PS3 and 1.88 on Wii... platform total at the time 26.77M X360 (0,2615 attach ratio) 19.38 PS3 (0,2616) 43.7 Wii (0,043)... so comparing to 4-M wiiU (40k isn't much lower)

If we pick it when CoD peaked with MW3... 14M on X360 userbase of 63.77 (0,2195) 12.6 on PS3 user 61.1 (0,2062) and 0,67 on Wii user 93.43 (0,0072)... we can see how much Wii and WiiU owners love CoD (i hate it, but that is not the point)...

Stop blaming others... Nintendo and its userbase is more to blame than the dev... one for not employing more dedication to have better games and ensure success to third parties on it plat and the other for not supporting or demanding Ninty to take action...

It baffles me to see people saying Activision is autosabotaging themselves... would they willing take less tham 1% attach ratio on a 100M userbase on purpouse?

Wii owners abandoned Ninty much before WiiU launched... not even talking about the fall in Consoles selling, but in software... 177M SW sold in 2008, 181M 2009, 182M 2010 thennnnnnnnn 135M 2011, 71M 2012 and 29M 2013... that shows that casuals had already left the boat and wouldn't cared for WiiU (and that is why WiiU isn't a continuation of Wii)...

Let's see totals... Wii 855M on 100M plat (8,55 attach) X360 811M on 80M plat (10,16) and PS3 734M on 81M (9,08)... lets not forget that taking bundles SW the number would even be more dire for Wii, lower for PS3 and "less worst" for X360 (reasons for X360 in front of PS3 on SW 26M of the year advantage and being really stronger on america (that holds greater attach ratio, kinect 20M sold with one SW attached)...

Now lets just admit X360 moves more SW per HW, Ninty owners generally don't buy third party and stop with the excuses... and remember that your preference don't rule the world.
