I never implied it did. Further, no advertising of Wii U versions doesn't help their games sell on the console either.

Maybe so but again what does that have to do with the actual quality of the games.

i cannot wait for the ports of X1 & PS4 games !

No patches for buggy piles of messes and no dlc for them when other systems of lesser power have them directly infers lower quality.

Lack of advertising is a large reason for lack of sales, which is often cited as a reason for never improving the quality.

Again DLC has nothing to do with the quality of the games. As for bugs most if not all of them get patched. I've got Zombie U, Batman Arkham City, Sonic Rush and Injustice Gods Among Us and they are Ll just fine. Most if not all of them had updates after release to improve performance. Of course I can't speak for other third party games.

What's wrong with you an semantics?
Why would anyone in their right mind buy a game which heavily relies on DLC like blops2 on a console where there's no dlc coming over another console where dlc is confirmed, and coming first on (360) ?

How many months did it take ubi to admit zombiu had a game-breaking bug? then how many months after that did the patch silently release?

Because DLC isn't that important nor is it the be all and end all of whether a game is worth buying. If the main game is solid and robust then its still worth buying regardless of DLC. You put such an important factor on DLC its just silly. I don't buy a game based on what DLC may come out for it but on what the game itself is like. Maybe you need to rethink your priorities.

An expanded experience is still better than the base one.
Having the option to expand the game if you so want, is an option where as not having that option is not an option.

Its still not as important as you make it out to be. To miss out on a game just because its not going to be supported by DLC where as other versions are is just plain ridiculous especially if its a quality game.

Who's missing out on a game?
It's the same price or less on last gen hardware, with the stuff you discount as unimportant.

Also lol at calling a buggy mess a quality game.

First of all not everyone owns more then one console. Most only have one and many out there only have a Wii U so what's your point about the game being on last gen hardware and costing less. You seem to think most people have more then one choice regards which console to buy the game on. Also no, DLC isn't and shouldn't be a deal breaker if the game is of quality. Finally what buggy mess. I a.ready said I have several third party games and none of them are buggy let alone a buggy mess. You're just making a big deal when there is no need to.

"Many"? It's barely sold like 5 million.
360's up to like 400 million ps3 close to that.
They're similarly priced, with a much larger library.
They're also 6 years older, or more.

I think people have a choice to buy their games on other consoles because they do.
And they actually do buy them on the other consoles, take a look at ass creed 3 and blops 2 sales across the consoles.

I think the wii u ver of most games are coming up.
Gotta remember the first wave of games where betas and now that the devs have had time with the system they should be cranking out top notch wii u games now.

That's an optimistic view of things.

Yeah, because stating obviously overly exaggerated numbers completely makes my point invalid.

[cupoftea]

aparantly 3 threads were on 2 cores and devs couldnt work it out was one issue the other is lazy fast ports a inline cpu and a 40 stage pipeline being ported to a out of order cpu and a 4 stage pipeline THE SUPERIOR CPU MUST HAVE BURNED DEVELOPERS BRAINS or something

 

oh and putting sound onto dsp instead of a cpu core WAS ANOTHER DEV HICK UP OR ACT OF LAZINESS

[Cloud Windfoot Omega]

I find it hard to believe that they were using 2 cores  when they did not get all 3 running. Its the same to code to make 3 run as it is to make 2 (minus the fact you have to tell it to run each core) unless they only told it to run  the first and second... seems  insane to me.
