Seriously Zero? Go look at the sales for 3rd party titles on WiiU and give me one good reason they should continue to develop for a platform with no viable returns.
|
If there were no viable returns on games like Black Ops 2, Assassin's Creed 3, and Arkham City, then Ghosts, Assassin's Creed 4, and Arkham Origins wouldn't have come to Wii U.
|
Yet Arkam Origins isn't getting DLC on WiiU, and Watch Dogs is getting delayed. Destiny, Thief, Kingdom Hearts III, Evolve, FFXV, and Elder Scrolls Online aren't coming to the platform at all. Publishers may have ignored the poor sales of Black Ops 2, AC3, and Arkham City since they launched later than the other versions. The same excuse can't be used for their successors in 2012. Clearly publishers aren't happy with the sales of their previous efforts on the console.

DLC is another matter, because only a portion of a user base will buy it.
If they didn't turn a profit, the Wii U versions of Origins/Ghosts/Black Flag would have been canned.
|
Once again, the poor sales of those ports could have been attributed to the fact the WiiU games launched later than the other versions. They gave the WiiU another chance in 2013, and I doubt that payed off. Ubisoft would not have delayed Watch Dogs on WiiU if AC4 had performed to their expectations.
|
They could very well have if it was an issue of limited resources. Somebody had to get delayed, it seems.
|
It showed that WiiU version was low priority compared to every other console.If they really cared about it then they would have hired more people to get the WiiU version finished on time with the others.
