This -_-

I think it won't come. Sales from BO2 and Ghosts were bad enough, it just isn't viable or profitable enough to justify. It's not just the port costs, as many try to say here, but the game demands much more attention and investment as a primarily online game. 250k sales at an average of US$40 (considering a fairly frontloaded launch) equals US$ 10M and we know that 45% is what the developer and publisher will get together, or US$ 4.5M. It's not that much to cover a full work schedule for a small team to port it (assuming it would take some months), porting and maintenance of updates for Wii U and costs to mantain a server infrastructure for playing online for several years. I'm saying that the 4.5M will have to cover not only port and update costs, but be enough to mantain dedicated servers running for years 24/7. 

If memory serves, this is the third time this has happened with COD on Wii U. And I still don't care.

MK8 won't boost Wii U sales not in a significant enough way to make a difference. Add to the fact that the MK demographic is not exactly a cross section of the COD demographic.

Don't you think they might be able to extrapolate the sales with the install bases they had when the other 2 COD games released?

And yet they keep making them, once a year, since 2008. They would've stopped years ago if it wasn't profitable for them.

No, because WD is a fall release. It's either:

a) waiting to see if sales pick up with the release of MK8 or

b) MS and Sony have given them money to promote it on their platforms first or

c) They are seeing if Treyarch can port it smoothly in time for launch. If they can't get it running, they just drop it.

Watch Dogs is cancelled for Wii U. I can take bets if you want

Almost everyone else in this thread is wrong.

Yes -- Activision and other 3rd parties consider Watch Dogs as a barometer of sorts for interest in cross-platform 3rd party games on Wii U regardless of ship date.

However, what piques Activision's interest more is the prospect of Nintendo getting online gaming right starting with MK8.

CoD:AW Wii U is practically a certainty as they have far better reason to port it than Ghosts. And they can get away with not fixing bugs or offering DLC with this version.

When it comes to a franchise like CoD, its success rests upon continually drawing in new players. The WiiU version accomplishes that in a particular way the other versions might not.

COD games always come to Nintendo consoles. They never get any real advertising and just happen to show up in store adverts as the release date approaches.

Activision already created the WiiU COD engine and they will continue to push out the WiiU version each year.

What are you talking about? There is nothing wrong with WiiU's online gaming structure. It works very well.

BTW they also get DLC and bug fixes from Activision.
