Why should third party's put so much effort into the Wii U version? And given the small install base on the Wii U, that doesn't even buy third party games, it wouldn't make financial sense to do that.


The small installed hardware base is almsot as big as the installed hw base of xbox one at the moment.

 

Wii U Owners do buy third party games. Just not realisitc looking games.

 

Third Party games on wii u (cartoony graphics):

Disney infinity 2.0 sales:

Wii U: 0,47 Mio

Ps4: 0,39 Mio

Xbone: 0,26 Mio

 

Skylander Trap Team:

WiiU: 0,5 Mio

Ps4: 0,3 Mio

Xbone: 0,23 Mio

 

Rayman Legends:

Ps4: 0,55 Mio

WiiU: 0,5Mio

Xbone 0,21 Mio

That's true, but they aren't making special versions for the X1. Plus the X1 is selling much better than the Wii U. 

And what you prove is that only games for kids sell okay on the Wii U. I think most third party's know this and act accordingly. For example, I think Ubisoft's next Rayman game will probably be on the Wii U. But of course they aren't going to spend millions changing Assassin's Creed so that kids can play it. That just doesn't make financial sense.
