Yes it's possible that MH5 could do 1 million on Wii U if its exclusive but a 1 million seller isn't going to shift a ton of units and Capcom would never go along with it because they would be missing out a ton of sales by not putting it on 3DS where the fanbase already is. Monster Hunter 4+4G is close to 6 million and could go over 7 million lifetime once we figure in western sales. Capcom is not willing to lose those type of sales by putting the next mainline entry on a console with a low install base. The only way Capcom would consider putting it on Wii U is if Nintendo pays them enough to cover the lost 5 million or so sales and Nintendo would be dumb to spend that much money on a game that won't change Wii U's fortunes.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
