It's hard to say. On one hand, you have a terrible terrible game competing with other great software. Yet on the other, PS4 has been the selling the crud out of a lot of games. I think it will sell less combined on the twins than the wiiu version though, just because it won't have the element of surprise of awefulness that the wiiu version had. Everyone knows its secret.

It would flop and flop hard will it ever, especially for a 3 years late port job by Ubisoft, WD was a shit port on PC, shit port on Wii U, same thing will happen again.

Doesn't this mean Nintendo just got more money? Nintendo pays for exclusivity, so for Ubisoft to get out of that they have to pay them back right, or maybe it was just timed? Also, Nintendo's made as much money as they are going to from this game, so why not one last farewell pay check given to them? lol

Won't be as bad as Watch Dogs on Wii U, but it won't do well. Hard to call it a flop though because who's actually expecting a port of a 3 year old, fairly generic (minus GamePad stuff) game to sell well anyway? I mean seriously, take away the GamePad stuff and there's not much unique about ZombiU other than the whole if you die you play as a new character thing.

It won't bomb like Watch dogs but it certainly won't do anything amazing. Reception for the game was luke warm when it was built as intended, its only going to get worse when you remove the gamepad functionality. Unless its a remake, the gameplay as it was will be panned on PS4/X1.

I don't think it'll pass 1m on PS4+X1

Would be the perfect game for Morpheus causing it to have infinitely more immersion than the Wii U version. Could be one of the first and best Morpheus experiences.

As such of course it will flop because no one has the money to buy it.


Not to mention the game itself is really meh. Unless Morpheus would make the game itself better of course.

I have my doubts on the game's selling potential on ps4 and xb1, but I doubt it will be anywhere near the bomb that was watch dogs on wii u.

Bayonetta 2, the best game on WiiU has not reached 1m sales.
Sunset Overdrive, the best game on XB1 has not reached 1m sales.

Sunset OverDrive could have done way better on WiiU and Bayonetta would have been a hit on XB1

The reason why BloodBorne (the best PS4 game) did so well its because Sony realized what their target audience wanted.

Its not about getting third party exclusives just because, its about studying the market.

With that being said, ZombieU was a terrible choice for the console, in the other hand Splatoon was perfect.
