Is this becoming a trend? The Wii U getting the gimped up remains of multiplatform titles because the developers can't be bothered with it?

*sigh*

It's going to be a rough six years.

I guess on the plus side, it's the opposite of the usual.
atleast we got the online option included....

and on second thought, maybe 3rd parties will start having Wii U stretch goals.
Sell 150k copies and we will include multi-player.
Sell 500k copies and we will release all the DLC that the other versions got.
Sell 1M copies and we promise you a full fledged sequel.

It's a vicious cycle. Developers/publishers aren't going to fully support the Wii U because the userbase isn't big enough and doesn't buy enough games. Gamers then won't buy the developers'/publishers' games on Wii U because they're obviously just inferior versions.

It's all quite understandable. Ubisoft DID say that Wii U sales only took up %3 of its game sales last quarter. That's pathetic. I love Nintendo, but if I were a third-party I'd never release for the Wii U unless Nintendo paid me an absorbent amount of money.
