Yet Rayman Legends, Lego games, Skylanders and ASRT sold more than CoD on Wii U.

There goes your argument.


Did any of those games had the Wii U version as its highest selling SKU? Did any of those games broke 1M on the Wii U? Stop trying to pretend that an enviroment that's as viable as a desert for 3rd party games would make any difference for Tony Hawk. If it did, most 3rd party games would be released there because it would make sense from a business perspective.

The sales were pretty similar with all those games despite the Wii U having a much smaller userbase.

For example The Lego: Movie Videogame sold 460k copies on PS4 and 450k copies on the Wii U. Lego Batman: Beyond Gotham sold 260k copies on both the Wii U and xbone. Skylanders: Trap Team sold 500k on the Wii U and 290k on the PS4 (540k on the PS3).

Rayman Legends and ASRT didn't break 1M on any single console. What's your point exactly?

Stop trying to pretend that Tony Hawk has the same audience as CoD. Keep ignoring the third party examples I gave you that sold on par with the other versions. Not every game needs to sell over a million to be profitable. I doubt Tony Hawk  Pro Skater 5 has a huge budget. 

Why don't Western third party developers make games for the 3DS? It has a huge userbase and games like Dragon Quest, Monster Hunter, Professor Layton and Yo-kai Watch have proven to be succesful on the platform. Because they're biased as fuck, that's why.
