| Devil_Survivor said: If Activision actually made the game themselves I'm sure it would as good as the other CoD games. However, that Vita game was made by another studio called Nililisitic games, a studio known for making very bad games. As for CoD selling more on Vita then Wii U, I would cite the larger install base of the Vita and the thin Vita library as a couple reasons why that is so. |
I will give a credit to Nihilistic since Activision only gave them 4 months do develop a full game and that was plain craziness. Of course, Vita base is larger than Wii U, but not 4X larger (like the sales were). And Vita's library when CoD released was actually better than Wii U's library when BO2 released. Declassified was launched 1 year after Vita and it released with Assassin's Creed and NFL, two good games. BO2 was at Wii U's launch, so the competition was pretty much nothing except Nintendo games, that appeal to a different crowd, and year old ports.
And in Vita's case, you had other shooter options. You could buy Resistance or Unit 13 (ok, it's a TPS, but it's good, unlike CoD). CoD still sells well, even if we consider that now Killzone is an option and that's pretty damn good. For Wii U, CoD still is the only option available for shooter fans.
