As I said a many times already, all Wii U games have sold less than their Wii counterparts. Now if you seriously believe Wii U sales don't matter for determining how a Wii U game would sell, that the more recent and sensible comparison between mainseries MP and DKC on Wii means nothing while the irrelevant and stupid mainseries vs. spinoff comparison on GC is the sole determinant, then I'm not gonna waste anymore time with you. |
I personally think that the Gamecube/GBA is a better indicator of Nintendo's current audience than the Wii/DS since it's obvious the casual audience did not migrate to the Wii U or 3DS. I'd say about 50-60% of DS and Wii owners fall into that casual category and Nintendo themselves have said that they're done with the casual audience after they left Nintendo high and dry. Because of that, it's kind of hard to use Wii attach rates as an indicator of how a certain series would sell on the Wii U or future Nintendo platforms. I mean, look at Xenoblade X. Some people here love to call it niche but It's probably going to sell around the same amount as the original on a userbase a seventh the size of the Wii while Tropical Freeze is going to probably sell 1/3 or 1/4 the amount as DKCR on that same small userbase.
