Call of Duty: Ghosts was the #1 best-selling title overall in December, and the #1 best-selling next gen title of 2013 on both Xbox One and PlayStation 4; Call of Duty was the #1 franchise for the fifth year in a row in both software units and dollars in the U.S., according to the NPD Group¹.

November 2013 NPD: Call of Duty: Ghosts Wii U accounts for less than 1% of game’s total sales
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Podcast Stories, Wii U | 64 Comments
No one expected the Wii U version of Call of Duty: Ghosts to light the sales charts on fire. Yet it’s still quite disappointing to see that the game sold horribly in the US last month compared to other platforms.
Reliable NPD leaker “creamsugar” has shared information indicating that Call of Duty: Ghosts on Wii U accounted for less than 1% of the game’s total sales. Wii U’s share came in at 0.33% for the month of November, followed by the Xbox One with 6.42%, PlayStation 4 with 7.39%, PlayStation 3 with 30.42%, and Xbox 360 with 55.45%.
Again, Ghosts wasn’t expected to be a major sales success on Wii U. But given its apparent poor sales, you have to wonder if Activision will even bother bringing out next year’s Call of Duty for Nintendo’s console.

Japan: Call of Duty: Ghosts sees low debut on Wii U, but still a bit better than Rayman and Sonic
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 4 Comments
Call of Duty: Ghosts launched in Japan last week. How’d the Wii U version do? Not too well, though it did do slightly better than other prominent Wii U titles.
Sales reported by Dengeki (tracked by ASCII Works) indicate that the game sold 2,508 units in its first few days on the market. Interestingly, that’s better the debuts of both Rayman Legends and Sonic Lost World.

As of now, Call of Duty: Ghosts doesn’t support dedicated servers on Wii U. But that will change in the future!
A Treyarch staffer confirmed on Twitter that there are plans to bring along dedicated servers for Ghosts on Wii U. There’s just no set date yet.
@SeANMcBAY Yes, but I don't have a confirmed date yet.
