Forums - Nintendo - Will Deus Ex HR Director's Cut Wii U version sales be affected by other versions?

I'm not under the illusion that this game will do anything big on Wii U, but what is interesting to me is that their are even going to be PS360 versions of the game. They are slated to come out Nov 15 but no concrete date for WIi U version but im gonna assume the same day. What is messed up to me, is that the PS360 versions are only retailing for 30 bucks, which is fine it is just an updated version of a game that has been out for some time, but 50 for the WIi U one? Unless they really utilize the gamepad and push the Wii U power so it looks and runs better than the other two. Im not seeing why their is a 20 dollar difference. On a side note it seems whatever features the Wii U version will have gamepad wise, will be also be on PS3 via PSVita, i seriously doubt that is the case but it would be cool.

I dont know what SE is expecting but i cant see this doing all that great. Hell i think it will do worst than what i originally thought. Wii U version is too expensive and PS360 people played it a while ago.

I don't think they can be expecting that much, it has been available on Steam for £2.50



This game was going to struggle HARD before it became multi-plattform, now it will completely bomb. I say it will be lucky to reach 20000.



I hope that it will sell enough for SE to consider to port the new Deus EX iOS game(s) to the eShop..

Yeah.. That hurt didn't it..

Why do publishers keep doing this? lol Wii U version is going to bomb O.o



Around the Network

It is going to fail on all platforms, since it was only $3 during the Steam Summer Sale, but it will probably do the worst on Wii U.

um...no?



this is just as bad as when a Wii U game doesnt get a special edition version and they charge the same price as the PS360 special edition version lol.

At least ubisoft are trying and releasing their special editions of watch dogs and splinter cell on Wii U.



 

 

I'm actualy happy that this is going multiplat. I never saw this game doing possibly well. I could see this game bomb and then hear the ''3rd party should'nt support WiiU cause games don't sell'' argument all over again from Square or others... Now this game will do terrible numbers on all platforms so they won't be able to blame the console :)

I get why they did the PS360 release. There was a ton of nerd rage customer enthusiasm about it. But it seems kind of pointless to launch a "test" game and undermine it like that, doesn't it? 

 

They should have waited until after the Wii U launch to announce PS360 versions if they actually wanted to learn anything from their "test."
