Thats not gonna happen at least not this gen. Ninty simply doesnt have the resources to put out 1st party game after 1st party game. Not when they have to support two systems. And even if they do that, it still wont work because their is no substitute for say GTA, doesnt matter how mature Ninty makes their games. Stuff like GTA, ME, Bioshock, Portal, Metall Gear, Skyrim etc. are what people want to play and NINTY is missing a LOT of those games...their not gonna get them, not this time unless something drastic happen. They did grow their brand, with the WIi but it shrank right back down, hell its even smaller than GC thats crazy.

They grew their brand with casuals. Casuals pretty much abandoned them. Now is the time to plan correctly for the next gen. This gen is over in my books. I'm sure it will have some sweet games but they will only cater to Nintendo fans.

LOL listen to this guy. "please say things I want you too, to fit my argument".

They can only support old consoles for so long before software sales dry up. Reality is they are going from a combined userbase of 160 million to less than 10 million combined going forward. Not growing their brand on every platform is financial malpractice, they need every sales they can get, end of story.

That would be true if a Wii U version would just appear for free, but that doesn't happen, a Wii U version costs money. And for most third parties a port that sells south of 100k is simply not worth it.

Also your "they treated them like crap"-argument doesn't even work here, Activision has supported Nintendo for a long time, all their big games released on the Wii and now Wii U. Fact is very few people actually buy third party games on Nintendo consoles, aside from a couple exceptions, so third parties really don't need nintendo, if at all it's the other way around.

The fact that you wont answer a simple will PS4 or Xbone drop to WIi U levels tells me that you dont believe they will. So your argument makes less sense as they wont have the problems moving software that WIi U had all year becasue they wont sell as badly.

So you think that PS4 and xone will only do about 10mil together lifetime? now thats funny. As DerNebel already explained the games dont sell on Wii U period, so really they might as well save porting costs and not even put it on their. Ha Ghosts is actually tracking WORSE than Blops2 despite the bigger user base so it would be financial malpractice to keep sinking money into that SKU end of story.

COD is shit and so is the Wii U

Moderated - Kresnik.

It is my friend. In my country they only brought the copies that were pre-ordered and nothing else, a week after the game came out I was trying to buy it and nobody had copies of the game for Wii U, for PS3 and Xbox 360 there were a lot, but all told me the same about the Wii U version that they were "bringing a few more" in a week or 2, because they only brought the pre-ordered units and did not have additional copies to sell. Similar story with other games but not as bad, I could find a few copies of Assassin's Creed IV and Batman. And let's not talk about not so popular games, The Wonderful 101 is impossible to get, same thing with Deus Ex or even Splinter Cell: Blacklist.

and people wonder why 3rd parties dont support nintendo systems

This game sold 40x more on ps4/xbox1 than on Wii U?

I still wonder why there was no COD vita though Cod sold last year on vita much more than on Wii U.
Seems Activision don't care for profit.

The thing you don't understand is that releasing a Wii U port isn't growing the brand. Wii U isn't really competing with PS4One, it's a companion console at best, just like the original Wii. This means that Wii U owners know they need a PS4One or a PC to play games, cause Wii U is too underpowered to deliver a full next-gen experience. What does this mean? It means that Wii U sales aren't added sales! In most cases, they are just canibalising sales from other platforms, since many Wii U owners would get a CoD on a different platform, had it not been on Wii U. The number of fanboys that will ignore the franchise just because it's not coming to Wii U is negligible, as they would never make up for the costs of the port. That's why if I was an executive at Activision, Wii U would only get a CoD next year if the console explodes this year. And it surely wouldn't get a port instead of Vita. Vita can add sales, since people want a portable CoD and see it as something a bit different and that audience actually wants a CoD. It really beats me why Acti chose Wii U over Vita this year.
