I didn't say it wouldn't profit. If they could port it very cheaply, then yes it probably would make a profit. But it'll still be a flop sales wise. 100k is flop for a Souls game. 

The WiiU port was estimated to cost about 1.5m $, thats a reaaaallly low quantity for a game that can easily revenue 5m$ selling 100k!!!!!
Thing is you have to create the fanbase yourself as a publisher/developer with your work. thats how it works.

 

Imagine it sold 150k, that could lead to a higher budget sequel releasing too on WiiU with a bigger installbase and a bigger expected revenue.

In the end is about trust, leadership and confidence like everything in life. 3rd parties are reclutant to join Nintendo but they dont understand they are the ones should be pushing the envelope. htey are too afraid and only release half asses products and they ultimately dont realize they are killing the market themselves on WIiU. ANd its a shame cause im a3rd paty buyer on Nintendo consoles since SNES days.

No they arent the ones who are pushing the envelope on Ninty systems. taht is not there job, their job is to get their game in the hands to as much people as possible as cheaply as posssible and the WIi U aint doing it not with those sales. THey are not afraid they are being smartly cautious. And lets stop saying half assed products, when they all have been selling pretty bad across the board. Its not their job to move HW for any company.

their job is to make profit.but they are ruining their own profit on Nintendo consoles treating them lik a bitch . Wii era was the worst. the amount of shoddy ports and shovelware 3rd parties flodded Wii environment was unparalleled. fact is they mad a TON of money out of Wii SW thanks to NIntendo ability to sell HW.

but know are being cautious lol how soon they forget Nintendo made them a lot of easy cash with zero risk at it.

they are trying now on WiiU the same aproach and its not working simple as that. if they want to sell they have to put more effort. but maybe they prefer to focus on more easy cash in projects like they did in the past. and thats a shame and makes me sad cause ive always bought a ton of 3rd party on Nintendo
