Where's the evidence that the Wii U install base is interested in this type of game? PS360 had a >10x install base with inherently more people who're into the genre yet only managed 2 million between them. How does a, let's face it, <10 million install base by the time B2 launches generate more than 1 million sales for a game like this?

you want evidence?

31,000 and the game resaled between 4 month, versus 33,000 PS3 and 35,000 X360 the week before coming.

Dying light on Ps4 has 90k pre orders with no release date. The order has over 100k. Pre orders with a 2015 release date. 30k pre orders isn't very good evidence of significant interest. But we'll have to see how that number grows over the next few months.
