Not really. Porting likely doesn't cost much.


it never does, until we talk about MH.


Killed.

 

OT. Every multiplatform game on the Wii U should be made by a separate team (if made at all). I don't want next gen games to be scaled down just so they can run on the Wii U with only graphics, resolution and framerate differences.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

That's not really true, because in black ops 2 (not sure if it's in ghosts too), one player can have his screen on the gamepad, while the other one can have it on the tv when playing local/online multiplayer, thus having two seperate screens. So counting pixels isn't that pointless.

I don't think developing titles in 4 months costs very much either - there's a cap on how much money you can spend in that time :P

Or at least, not enough to make up a 500k sales difference, which I think is what the guy was getting at.

I just don't think doing a profitable port qualifies as "generosity". ;)

Assuming they are doing what Shin'en did the gamepad can look super crisp and very taxing but they probably did not do that



bet with ash3336 he wins if Super Mario 3D World sells less than Mario Sunshine during the first three years, I win if 3D World outsells Sunshine's first 3 years. Loser get sig controlled for 3 months (punishment might change)

Do you doubt the WiiU? Do you believe that it won't match the GC?

Then come and accept this bet

Declassified is an exclusive, people who wanted to play it had no where else to play it but Vita, WiiU got a port almost identical to the 360, anyone who had a PS3 or 360 did not need the WiiU to play it

I'm shocked people are acting as if developing for Wii U is a charity and even more shocked to see the indifference, even cruelty, directed at Wii U owners. Do they not deserve third-party games too?

Show some courtesy for your fellow gamer. You guys seems more interested in protecting these companies than you do your peers.

Makes me sad that people basically buy everything no matter what as long as there is a brand name on a product... even if it would get a 1 on metacritic.

Mainstreamers and marketing = cancer.


We need some kind of  ESRB/USK/whatever rating. They should add their own  8/10  or 80%  on top of the age rating. ( I mean they basically test the whole game so why not add a gameplay rating? Its a no brainer when you think about. Its no additional work at all)

If this would happen every shitty game would have problems selling = less shitty games.

are you implying that if declassified was a wii U game it would have sold more, and if vita got a black ops II port instead of declassified, it would have sold less?

I dont think that would be true at all.

wii U fans would just say...oh look the third party developer gave us a crappy version of a game again, dont buy it!

and a better COD on vita, even if it were a direct port would have made it past 1m sales ages ago.

Well... remember... the Vita has a bigger install base than the wiiU, specially back then and cod black ops 2 is also avaliable on the 360 and ps3 which also has a bigger install base... 

So if I had a ps3/360/pc and I just bought a wiiU at the time... I would probably pick the ps3/360/pc version cause most of my friends will have that version since the wiiU was/is such a new console
