Why Nintendo shouldn't suck up to third parties

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.

Who knows...Probably out of sentiment- token of support.
Probably the misguided thought of "Nintendo fans haven't had the chance to play it". I think Most Nintendo fans own more then one console (or are PC gamers aswell). Otherwise I have no idea how they survived 2009-2012.

this, people here would have you believe otherwise. Even though we are on a sales site. I mean COD sales alone prove it by how much more each HD version did compared to the WIi ones.
