I refuse to believe there is a huge crowd of Sim Racer hungry users just dying for a game on Wii U. It seems far more likely that Nintendo websites sniffed the chance to get a 3rd party game and sent all their users to tick Wii U. The simple truth is, this would have struggled to muster up tens of thousands of sales on Wii U. The arguments just don't stack up for me. People are upset because Nintendo users have been denied a chance to play the game now. Yet evidence of previous 3rd party releases shows that there isn't an audience there wanting to play the games on Wii U. It would have been a late port, which is used as justification not to buy a game on Nintendo. It would have been inferior in every way to the other versions, which is used as a justification not to buy a game on Nintendo. Newsflash, if you only have a Wii U, it doesn't matter how gimped or late a port is, it's still the only way you can play that game. So if you really wanted it, you'd still buy it. Then we're led to believe that SMS have cut off a huge chunk of their potential audience? Pretty much anyone wanting this game would have already had access to it on PC, PS4 or XB1, because this is where the audience for this genre of game lies. This was the real reason PS3 games sold well despite being inferior to the Xbox 360 versions. They still wanted the game, and didn't have a 360 and so had to "settle" for the inferior version. |
yeah you might be right. As far as i do know this was a official poll from SMS.
On the other hand ps and xbox do have forza and driveclub/gt but wii u have nothing so it might sell a bit. im not interested in that game though
