Profit isn't guaranteed, just look sales of Watch Dogs. |
Well nordic games ported arcania the complete tale to ps4 (released last month) and sold for 30€ on release and pretty sure sold even way worse then watch dogs (its a 2011 games, rereleased to ps4, no advertisment or anything) but nobody complained.
The game got 4 ratings on amazon (watch dogs wiiu 46) so even if its pretty inaccurate, i would assume that this game sold like 10% on ps4 what watchdogs sold on wii u. That would be 8k. And the company keeps doing more old games port. So if even THAT is profitable...i dont know...
vg charts tracked it 0,00 though^^
Watchdogs wii u would easily sold ~200-300k if it would be released same day as other consoles.
It really seemed ubisoft dont care bout those numbers, maybe big publishers in general. I guess even if they do get like 2mio profit of a port they just dont care. The big money will be made on ps/xbox and those wii u millions are like peanuts for the big publisher.
