COD:AW Not Coming to Wii U
- Thread starter The Wolf King
- Start date
Nintendo will survive on their first party and those Just Dance styled games.
They won't likely finish 1st this time, but I doubt they'll suffer too much.
All that aside, are there any chances 3arc will develop this later or the WiiU perhaps like all the other Wii COD's?

Well I guess that depends on how much it would cost them to make it, and how much they would expect it to sell. I don't know the answers to that.
Not surprising in the least. How well did the last COD sell on the Wii U? I'd think COD franchise would be the only 3rd party software to have any chance of selling "well" on the Wii U...
Not surprising given that they're trying go big on the visuals and effects this time around because of the X1/PS4. I'm not entirely sure if the Wii U would fit in that scope. Especially considering all the money Activision is investing this year.
Yep it simply comes down to one thing and that's COD sells poorly on the console so Activision have said why bother.
The biggest publishers are already abandoning the U. Nintendo better start pumping out first party hits like crazy.
Don't see third party getting any better for the WiiU. To be honest I have some catching up to do as the last release I have played this year is Titanfall lol. Guess its time to start on MK
That's pretty much all she wrote as far as third party support goes. What a shame, considering i enjoyed playing Black Ops 2 on the Wii U. The Pro controller is awesome for shooters. At this point i really don't know if Nintendo can put out another underpowered console and get away with it. They better bring it next gen.
Garbage game so no loss. I'd rather the shelf space be taken up by superior first party games.
Business
If Activation think developing for WiiU will not yield return of investment or Activation think they can yield better return of investment if the team is put to other work, then they will not develop for WiiU. That's just the way business works.
But that counts for nothing when previous games have sold so poorly on it. Even last years with a smaller install base sold much more on Xbox One and PS4.
I also wonder if the Wii U might be experiencing some of the other issues from last gen, including being left to collect dust in between desired releases. I know plenty of people bought the Wii U simply because it was the only nexgen console for a bit.
I doubt this news really bothers WiiU owners.
Haven't seen any online petitions or threats to the publisher so I'm assuming it is a non issue to them.
