Zombi U was a sucess AND a launch title. If ubisoft couldn't handle the budget, it's their problem.

Bayonetta 2 is selling faster than zombi U and donkey kong tropical freeze. I'ts also faster than the first game on any individual platform.

Not all of those games you listed are AAA. Some were 6 months to 1 year late. But most importantly, they sold ok and released when the installed base was less than half of what it is now. The sales prospects of any multiplatform are much better now, yet they aren't coming. That shows lack of professionalism from third parties. It's as if they wanted an excuse by porting games when the base was low and then stopping when it got better.

Compared to games on PS4 and XB1, Bayonetta 2 and ZombieU have sold VERY less. Infamous: Second Son, whose predecessor sold even less than Bayonetta, sold more in its first week than Bayonetta 2 has sold till date.

Also, its not entirely the userbase which is the problem, the bigger problem on Wii U is demographic. Only Nintendo developed games have sold well on the system. Other games which were good or great were ignored by its userbase, including Bayonetta 2.

So what? other games can sell 100m and it won't change the fact that bayo 2 and zombi U sold well so far.

"Only Nintendo developed games have sold well on the system."

Completely wrong. Not only there are several full third party games that did very well, it is expected that nintendo titles will do better when third parties don't release many games.

Bayonetta 2 and ZombieU haven't sold well at all. Both are under a million units sold and if that's what you call good sales, you have certainly lower expectations than most of us here and more importantly, than the publishers.

Also I would like to know which third-party game has done well on Wii U except Just Dance because most of the big ones have sold only about 300k units, and many have sold even less than that.
