Even without Zelda U, could 2015 be the WiiU's best holiday yet?

So why didn't BLOPS2 do even 200k? 

It also had COD: Ghosts before the PS4/X1. 

It would have had to have been a large, noticable upgrade too. Nobody's buying a $350 platform for marginally better version. 

Don't you remember? There was this whole 'I'll wait until the PS4 happens' thing. But if they found a way to make GTA5 the best version when it launched, it would have been something different. As long as they got the most out of the system to do it.

Besides Black Ops 2 on Wii U did almost 300k.

Yet XB1 multiplats that are worse than the PS4 version still sell very well, no excuses there. It's only on Nintendo systems where excuses need to be made for why no third party game (not a single one) has sold really fantastic. 

Nintendo's issue is they're not relevant to the demographics that buy games like COD and GTA to begin with. They haven't been for a long time. 

XBox is relevant to that audience though that's why it doesn't really matter that much if COD on XB1 isn't as good as the PS4 version, it will still sell in the millions whereas the Wii U versions sold a very small amount by comparison. 

When that crappy COD Vita game outsells both BLOPS2 and Ghosts on the Wii U ... something is wrong.
