Not sure how many copies ubisoft needs to sell to make a profit, but it costs $1.3 million (around) to port to the wii U which is fairly small.

According to some in the comment section (of the article), Wii U ports needs to sell around 50k to break even, anything above that they are making a profit.
Hopefully, someone can bring more light to these figures.
