Activision Re-affirms Support for Nintendo Wii U on Nintendo gaming news, videos and discussion

With a mixed response from third parties when it comes to Wii U, Activision have continued to pledge support.

Speaking to CVG this week, Eric Hirshberg, chief executive of Activision, confirmed that the publisher will continue to "add to the appeal of the platform" where they can, and wants "all of the great games in this industry to succeed because more people will be playing games".

Hirshberg acknowledged that Nintendo are "obviously having a rough go with the Wii U launch thus far" but isn't counting the House of Mario out just yet.

Call of Duty Ghosts is the next project from Activision, which is also launching on Wii U on November 5th.

Well it's good to see there are devs with balls that don't back out at the first "sign" of supposed failure. Let's hope other devs buck up & understand it'll take a unified effort to fix the industry.

It is not wise to speak on subjects you do not know all facts about, nor is it smart to judge a game based on looks alone. PSN: Nintendo_Gamer 3DS: 4296-3029-7422

I wonder how their game runs on the Wii U hardware.

Black Ops II ran fantastically (and also had that nice split screen mode) so I would expect Ghosts to run just as well.

Yeah Black Ops 2 ran great on WiiU. My only gripe is that the loading times were a pain compared to the previous games I've bought on PS3/360 but hopefully Ghosts has improved it.

Even if they don't do any DLC again, at least they've put effort into releasing a fully featured product without features missing etc.

Treyarch are great with Nintendo hardware. Smilie

I don't like Activision, they busted Guitar Hero greatly, and I don't play Cod (Or is it DoG now? Smilie), but kudos for supporting Wii U. Activision is doing good so far, I hope you guys buy a lot of ...DoG!

I find your lack of faith disturbing!
