But there have been numerous multiplat games that have done really well on PS4 and X1. Can't really say the same for Wii U.

This is why Wii U is often neglected for ports.

No. multiplats did well and bad on all three consoles.

The problem for Wii U is very few multiplats had worthwhile sales.

The X1 and PS4 has multiplat games selling a million or even millions. That potential currently doesn't exist on Wii U.

The best selling multiplat on Wii U is Rayman Legends at 380K. That says a lot about what that audience is interested in.

that audience is interested in good games. and funny for you to mention rayman, with the wii u version being the second best selling, only after the ps3 version and it's monster installed base advantage.

That's rhetoric Wii U fans keep saying. All the console audiences are intersted in good games. Wii U fans simplly haven't bought enough 3rd party software to encourage support.

You're boasting about Rayman Legends sales on Wii U, but it doesn't encourage much 3rd party support for Wii U. It just encourages more Rayman and family friendly games on Wii U. Less Assassin's Creed and more Just Dance.

no, i don't know what you're referring to because for starters, I wouldn't call cor or AC core games. they are two bad examples that you are using to generalize a whole lot of games.


yeah but a whole lot of games have had abysmal sales on WIi U. At least MP. He just picked the two most popular series as an example.

A lot of games had abysmal sales on ps4 and x1 too.

what does that have to do with MULTIPLAT games on WiiU? What is your point? HOw is it proving our statements wrong? Matter of fact the MULITPLAT games perform MUCH better on those systems than WIi U ever did. Thats the point.

what was HIS point by saying some games sold bad on wii u when the same can be said about ps4/x1? for the bold to be the point, it would have to be true. there are multiplats that do better on wii u and others that do better on ps4/x1.

The point is almost all multiplat games have poor or modest sales on Wii U. That's discouraging support.

To the contrary, X1 and PS4 have actually had great success with multiplat titles. They have several million or multi million sellers.

A multiplat doing better on Wii U is rare. A multiplat doing well on Wii U is also rare. That's why the support went away or is limited to more casual, family friendly titles.

Ubisoft was being honest. And its not just Ubisoft, many publishers have given up on Wii U. That's evident just by looking at the Wii U's remaining holiday lineup.

Wii U owners should be thankful for Watch Dogs, even if its late. It atleast adds some variety to that library.

only a handfull of tittles from a select number of publishers are million sellers on ps4 and x1.

support didn't went away because it never existed. and it never existed because of bias.
