Now we can see metacritic has absolutely no affect on people at all.

Pretty much, who needs polished games when you can just have a cartoon show and marketing

Bayonetta, Rayman, Donkey Kong and Alph, Brittany and Charlie agrees.

Considering the difference in install base and that WiiU ports are generally technically inferior -- not all that bad.

I think the data shows that Lego City Undercover 2 needs to happen.



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

Wow that list is tiny. Wii u has to sell better this year

No third party can reach a million on the platform

Bayonetta hopefully reaches 1m.
Same for Project CARS.

180k for a sonic game is atrocious. The name alone garuntee's it 100k in sales, its poor quality definitely had an effect on sales.

What is the difference between the list with all 3rd parties game of WiiU in 2014 and the top 10 selling 3rd party WiiU games of 2014? Basically nill.
