This is an unsolvable problem for Nintendo, because the only realistic solutions would be to either pay off third parties for ports (thus ruining profitability).

How is it ruining profitability? If a said multiplatform game is not coming to the console, Nintnedo receive zero dollars. Paying for port guarantees some level of profitability in that Nintendo would receive royalty payments.

Let's suppose Nintendo had to pay off RockSteady to make Arhkam City Wii U, do you really believe they would have made their money back with the 210k copies it sold? Or if Nintendo had to pay off Namco for Tekken Tag Tournament 2 would have they made their money back with the 130k it sold on Wii U?


It all comes back to Nintendo.

Why would the game only sell 200k?

1.People have already got a system which can play the game.
2.People have no reason to buy the Wii U version (unless the gamepad excites them)
3.People have been given very little reason to own a Wii U in the first place.




it begs the question why was that game even on the system in the first place? Maybe to faciltate the upcoming Arkham Origins but that didnt do good either. and the new one istn even coming to WIi U.
