After the Watch Dogs fiasco over the last couple of days, there was many a debate as to how well it would actually sell on Wii U and whether it would be profitable. Through curiosity i decided to see, using VG chartz numbers how many games in total Ubisoft has sold on Wii U and try to determine whether their output has ultimately turned them a profit in total. There are 11 titles on Wii U from Ubi, with a total sell so far of just over 2 million. Its hard to speculate how much the ports cost to make, but im sure i read somewhere that Ubi said porting to Wii U is pretty cheap costing around $1.2 million. If that is true ( it may not be im only speculating) then that would cover Splinter Cell and the Assassins Creed games. You then have the just dance, Your Shape and Sports connection games that are probably cheap to develop. The games that may have had a negative impact on Ubi's profits would be Zombi U and Rayman legends, both of which were built from the ground up specifically for the Wii U. So what do the great people of VG chartz think? has Ubisofts Wii U adventure so far made them money or not? please remember this is just speculation on my part and not proper facts :)
