only a handfull of tittles from a select number of publishers are million sellers on ps4 and x1.

support didn't went away because it never existed. and it never existed because of bias.

Ubisoft was being pathetic, there's no way around it. and no one should be gratefull for a six month delay + direct insult towards de userbase.



The X1 and PS4 userbase is growing rapidly and there will be more million sellers on those platforms. While the Wii U doesn't have any 3rd party million sellers, not even CoD achieved it.

Support existed, but Wii U owners ignored them. Games like CoD, ACIV, Deus Ex, Batman Arkham series, Injustice, and Splinter Cell Blacklist are quality titles. If the only console I had was Wii U I would have bought all of them. But instead they went ignored.

Watch Dogs may be late, but its still a notable title for Wii U this holiday. Ubisoft saw little demand for their games on Wii U, so no point in wasting resources on that platform.

the x1 base isnt growing fast. their number of million sellers multis isn't relevant (especially when they are all from a few select publishers). you say "not even" cod, as if that game were a parameter. and many multis did better than cod on wii u.

cod is an okayish example. AC and Batman had huge declines even on ps360, wich shows the general audience didn't like the latest installments. deus ex was a late port costing $50 while rereleased for ps360 at the same time for $30. injustice, okay. splinter sell sold bad even on ps360. and most of them sld good enough, given the circunstances.

so, what do we have here: a few examples where the game sold less on wii u, period, and others that had too much going against them to have a fair chance of selling. in the end, if x game didn't sell well on wii u, it means that x game didn't sell well on wii u. it doesn't make any sence to use a few bad examples to generalize that all multis do bad on wii u. and that's while ignoring the ones that did well.

finally, MOST COMPANIES never released a single game on wii u, that's inexistent support.
