So what you're saying is, the WiiU should get Arkham Asylum and Akham City ports, as well as all AC games prior to Black Flag, because it got Akham Origins and Black Flag, and those are story driven games (as opposed to requesting Titanfall 1 on PS4 since TF2 is bound to come to PS4, but that's just a multiplayer shooter).

I mean, they did just make the Heritage Collection for AC with no WiiU version in sight. It does "make sense", right? But you accept that it's not gonna happen and get over it. Should X360 get MGS4 since Phantom Pain is coming to XBone? It "makes sense", but you're not saying anything about it.


Perhaps you didn't notice but Arkham City has already been released to WiiU. Actually even before Arkham Origins was released.

My bad, I slipped up on a game (and AC3 was on WiiU as well), but the point of my post still remains. Should WiiU get Akham Asylum and all ACs up through 3 remastered? Should X360 get an MGS4 port? I don't see anyone bringing this up, especially for MGS since MGSV is big and we're still dealing with 7th gen consoles.


It depends on many issues... If porting to other platform is cheap then it wouldn't hurt to release game on other platform. They may not make much money but they won't lose any either. BUT, porting from PS3 to 360 isn't exactly cheap. Also, old games on different platform rarely have much sales (of course there are some exceptions like Minecraft but not many).

PS4 and X1, however, are in many ways similar so releasing KH4 on both makes a lot of sense. It is very easy to port game from PS4 to X1 and vice versa.
