thats an odd game to compare them too, as its not like Rayman did gangbusters on Wii U anyway. It was still outsold by the PS3 AND PS4 version. Sure we could use the excuse that PS3 has a bigger user base(not what people were saying when they swore teh Wii U one would sell the best since thats the "definitive" version but i digress). But whats PS4 excuse? it came out later.

Why does it need to outsell all other versions? Why does everything have to be number 1? The game sold more than the Xbox/Vita versions and basically tied with the PS3 version while not being all that far behind the PS4 version. It shows that a game like Rayman can be a success on Nintendo platforms because it appeals to the people who play Nintendo games like Mario, Yoshi, Kirby, Donkey Kong. U want to have successful games on a platform than release games that appeal to the fan base of said platform.

Doesn't this just further the idea that Nintendo fans only buy Nintendo games, or Nintendo-like games, and thus third parties shouldn't bother with it unless they're going to make a game that "appeals to the fan base"?

Which gives you the same situation the Wii U and 3DS are in now.

Why do people think the next platform is going to get more support than either of those platforms?
