Forums - Nintendo - Will Activision try again with COD Wii U this year?

Don't think they have any reason to.



Playing Xenoblade 2 before I buy Xenoblade 3 (otherwise I couldn't wait to play 3).

Can they announce a new Fire Emblem? A remake of Genealogy or Tellius would suffice !

Unless they do something true innovative on the Wii U - it won't sell. Why buy an XOne / PS4 experience on the Wii U ?

But a real Wii U experience will sell. No doubts about it.

Too bad most developers either don't get the message or are just to incompetent to come up with something.



I think is possible, porting the game is cheap if they are also doing a 360 and PS3 version, the team required is only composed of 40 people, so if the game sells around 180k-200k units they can recover the investment, anything more is pure profit and with an install base of 11 million and an attach rate of only 3.5%, sales could be around 350k-380k. So it is worth it, even if not ultra profitable, and so it is possible.



No. Third party's shouldn't bother with the Wii U. Its just a waste of their time and money.

300k is more than 0 sales.
if porting doesnt cost too much, why not ?

I hope they stay away. Coming back would prove to me how retarded they are because they really believe that abandoning a userbase and coming back and abandoning and coming back and abandoning etc. somehow helps potential sales.

Gimme "real" shooters like Goldeneye or Time Splitters that offer challenge that offer difficulty specific mission objectives etc.



no way i cant see it happening with AW sledgehammer didnt port the ps360 versions thats how far off they are with the current gen

i wouldnt be surprised if this yrs skip the ps360 version tbh the only positive wiiu owners have is that this yr its treyark thats doing the game

If COW BO2 can outsell Classified on Vita, im sure Activision would bite



They won't because it won't sell well.

Highly doubt it, sales are poor reguarless of install base. People aren't buying the Wii U for games like COD, they're buying them for Nintendo games. I hate COD personally. I think the whole modern war based/unreal based shooter genere is very boring and over done at this point, but if I did like those games I would be playing them on one of the twins because my friends own those consoles, not the Wii U.
