![]() But that would be the final nail in the Wii U coffin. They could certainly just make a very small amount of units for the Wii U version of the game so as to hold back the cost, however. They release both versions and 1) some people decide to buy the Wii U version, thereby cutting off some sales of the game for the NX and thereby dis-incentivizing people not to buy the NX, or 2) people don’t buy the Wii U version at all because they want it on the NX and Nintendo wastes a shitload of money making the Wii U version. It would be silly of them to make a version tailored to the Wii U version because there are 2 scenarios here. Having TP on it was just a bonus for the hardcore gamers. The Wii also had Wii Sports to sell the system, and that’s why so many casuals and non-gamers picked up the system as well. The same situation could certainly happen for Zelda U, but again – the Wii U is no GC by a long-shot, so there’s far more risk involved, especially since the Wii U has not proven itself and Nintendo has been slowly letting the system die. ![]() They released Twilight Princess on GC and Wii because there was still a decent install base on the former, but the Wii U is even farther behind than GC in that regard, and people are ready to move past the failure that is the Wii U – as well as the fact that the end of development for TP coincided nicely with the release of the Wii, so their wasn’t as much risk in adding in the simplistic motion controls. ![]() ![]() I wouldn’t put it past Nintendo to simply dump the Wii U version entirely. But going on principle doesn’t hold much weight these days. So in principle, based on what Nintendo currently is saying (as if that means anything), then yes – you’re correct. Zelda U says hi from a double-release on the NX and the Wii U in a best case scenario where most people won’t even buy it on the latter in that regard. ![]()
