also I'd like to add, if we look at multiplat sales now they are generally good despite the two having much smaller sizes compared to last gen, Bayo 1 sold piss poorly between two platforms that had huge install bases from last gen which was no excuse at all, people can call on Wii U but it won't stop me from calling on PS3/360 for failing despite the large install bases, there's just no excuse.

That's a good point, a userbase of near enough 10m against two combined userbases of at the time was around 60m, the ratio is better on the Wii U.

Exactly, which was why when we look back on it at the time it sold so poorly, hell there were some multiplats that sold better back then compared to Bayo 1 so the install base was definitely active and thus why I think there is aboslutely no excuse as to why it didn't sell well, I feel it being on Wii U gives Plat more of a chance with it, if they kept on making multiplats to tank every time with large user bases then it will only crush them sooner, it's better for Ninty to foot the bill and keep it on their system as it's already been proven that a combined userbase of 60m wouldn't support them, if they didn't back then at the highest I expect the same to happen, the argument for PS4 mostly these days is "you can't ingore it;s huge userbase" and et it had a large one last gen with the 360 and B1 sold poorly.
