Or make a good game. Shovel Knight sold very well on the WIi U/3DS.

First week sales of Shovel Knight.

After one month:

Because every game that sells poorly on the Wii U is bad

Not even 1m after a month? Floptacular ;p

Will be interesting to see how it fares on PlayStation then. Will the delayed aspect kill its potential sales? I was going to get it on Wii U until they announced the PS4/Vita release. Vita excels in those types of games.

Is this game on PSVita? If not I don't know what made them think Wii U would be the most profitable platform to tackle

A lot of success stories on the WiiU eShop probably spur developers to try and snag a piece of the pie. Problem is that most of the time they aren't actually as good as the games that Nintendo features/tweets directly about...

There's also some likelihood that some devs want to shy away from PS+ as I personally think its a caustic promotion that completely kills an indie's selling potential.
