W101 isn't third party, need for speed was 6 months late, deus ex was late and released for $50 on wii u at the same time it was rereleased on ps360 for $30. The other games you listed sold very well.

edit: looks like someone else already said just that. Still valid.



Third party support is not limited to third party ip.

a port coming late should not be an excuse for poor sales. Next gen versions of GTA, last of us, and Destiny sold very well on next gen despite being "late"

The other games listed did not sell well. Rayman and zombiu sold poorly (source: Ubisoft). That was the whole reason for the ports to other consoles.



Marketing and overratedness caused that. Check how late ports of small/medium franchises sell. Check other late ports the ps4 and x1 got, you'll see plenty in the 200-300k range, from games that sold 1-2 million on ps360.
