First of all it was silly and down right stupid of PLAT Games to even release this game as an exclusive on their system.

This game was a game that was released on both Ps3/360. so why would you turn around and release it to a consumer that has no idea what the game is about.

Selling a million units is a stretch. I say 700k lifetime......

Nobody was willing to fund the title except for Nintendo. This has literally been discussed a hundred times on this site, If Nintendo didnt fund it, then it would never have been made.

Sega published the original and wouldn't fund the sequel, I believe I read an interview a while back from one of the developers saying they also asked Sony & Microsoft to publish for them and they declined, they then went to Nintendo and they agreed to publish the title, thus making it a Wii U exclusive.

Actually, Nintendo approached Platinum games about it and offered to publish it if they got exclusive rights. Platinum did not approach Nintendo.
