Supporting one platform while neglecting another is not good enough, a company should support all their platfoms adequately.


There is only so much that one publisher or developer can do. The Wii U output from Nintendo has been as good as you'd expect. Look at it realistically. Nintendo have released 2 Mario platformers, a Luigi platformer, Mario Kart 8, Smash Bros, Donkey Kong Country, Pikmin 3, Wind Waker HD and the Wii Series games. Among other 1st party titles, Nintendo have gone out to actually get developers creating new and exclusive content on Wii U such as Hyrule Warriors, Bayonetta 2, The Wonderful 101, ZombiU, Monster Hunter, LEGO City...

Nintendo have actively tried with the biggest IPs they have. Theyre still trying to push out new, exclusive content in 2015 with things like Xenoblade, Splatoon, Starfox. We have no idea what else they have planned for reveal in the Weeks leading up to and including E3.

To say that Nintendo of all developers and publishers hasnt tried to support the Wii U, I think, is simply wrong.

Animal Crossing is primarily a handheld series though, even on Wii's enormous userbase it didn't sell gangbusters.


Animal Crossing sold over 3.1 Million on Gamecube and 4.6 Million on Wii. There is a fairly big audience for Animal Crossing on consoles.
