Why no Destiny for the Wii U

To my understanding, the Wii U is similar in capabilities to the Xbox 360 and the PS3. Why is Destiny being released for those consoles, but not the Wii U?

  • I personally dislike the Wii and Nintendo in general, but unlike some here, I'll provide an unbiased argument. The biggest reason in my opinion: They'd have to make it. They have not devoted anything to the Wii U, and it would be too much trouble to do it now. I don't see much profit in it, as most people who are fans of the FPS genre either don't have a Wii U, or have another platform as well as their Wii U, because the Wii U doesn't really have much of a shooter market. Yes, they would probably sell copies, but mot enough that It would be worth it. Most interested Wii U owners would just buy it for their PS4 or Xbox One in order to avoid the (for lack of a better word) dumbed-down version of the game. Now to go off on the Wii U a little bit. Sorry guys, I just have to. I really don't see how the console is still alive at this point. It relies too heavily on nostalgia, and too little changes. There is very little innovation as far as their games are concerned. In a world where we criticize the repetitive nature of yearly installments and their seemingly endless franchises, some of us continue to support games that are just re-hashes of last year's installment. That was probably really poorly worded, but hopefully I managed to get my point across. I'm starting to get tired... See you starside.
