Looks As Though Call Of Duty Ghosts Onslaught DLC Is Skipping Wii U

Activision has today announced that the Call of Duty: Ghosts Onslaught downloadable content which launched first on Xbox 360 and Xbox One, and launches February 27th on PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4 and PC, won’t be coming to the Wii U.  Activision has only listed the release of the first batch of DLC for the platforms mentioned above. Onslaught features four new multiplayer maps and another map for the Extinction mode.

    1. You’re awful noisy to be “Silent.”
      For your information, I can only support one console. You have multiple? Well fuck-a-doodle-do.

      I can’t help I was shafted by Nintendo. They promised better support and third party games.. :/

      1. Thanks to third parties (EA) BS hypocrite trash talk (didn’t happen with Wii which is what they’re “arguing” about Wii U), misinterpretation of its hardware power & potential plus consumers, gamers and Nintendo themselves acting dumb as fuck over what Wii U is.

      2. Exactly. Fanboy excuse #1: “Whatever I don’t like 3rd party games anyway”. I’m gonna repeat it once again, if you don’t buy third party games Nintendo will go out of business.

        1. Oh is that so? Cause N64, Gamecube, and Wii didn’t have much of it and Nintendo has more money then Sony, and more then Microsoft’s Gaming Division. All Sony and Microsoft systems are, are 3rd party machines.

            1. Those gens are over…wiiu just started (sorta) so of course the old gens are gonna have more.
              Besides…. Nintendo has never really had much 3P support all together… and they know they can live without them through their own 1st party games… 3p support is MS and Sony… Like 70% of their games are 3rd parties.

              1. Really those gens are over? I was wondering why they haven’t released an N64 game in a while. Obviously I’m comparing them in an equal time frame.

            1. Agreed, and people give me the term “fanboy” yet I want 3rd party support for Nintendo. I’m not just about the 1st party games, I need my fix of 3rd parties. Saying that, I still hate cod. Battlefield is pretty much the only FPS that’s been evolving.

        2. Sorry, but I really don’t buy third party games. I don’t like them and if Nintendo can’t stay in business without “my” help then maybe they deserve to go third party… just saying.

        3. I try to buy 3rd party for my Wii U but I will NEVER buy COD for ANY system, and shouldn’t have to just to justify having other 3rd parties on board. Everyone knows COD is one of the worst series the last 5 years at least, not my fault it’s the big mainstream thing. If Destiny came to Wii U I would possibly get that. I got Need for Speed though I played it once, just to support them. I also bought Tekken Tag Tournament, and sadly haven’t played that much either. Also bought Darksiders 2 but haven’t played it once, cause I haven’t played the first yet. So I have bought 3rd parties even though I knew I wouldn’t necessarily get around to playing them for a while, just to support them and Nintendo having 3rd party. Got Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, which is exclusive so not sure if that counts, Lego City Undercover (beat it 100% and loved it). There are some games coming out for xbone and ps4 that I would get if they came to Wii U, but I am not buying those systems. I hate microsoft, and I like Sony and have a PS3 but it’s pretty obvious 3rd parties don’t like Nintendo and bash the system. Maybe that’s partly Nintendo’s fault, but I am still gonna support them. If Nintendo stops making games, I’ll stop playing games, simple as that. Ps4 and xbone have hardly any games just like Wii U but because they are hyped as the cool adult systems, people buy into it. I’m not. Nintendo makes several 1st party games a year. What other developer can say they make several games in a year? Rockstar makes GTA 5, now whats the next game they are gonna make, and how long before it’s released? But nobody gets on them. I know gta 5 took a long time to make, but people who have played it say it’s a fun game and got lots of stuff to do, but it isn’t game of the year material. Naughty Dog makes a game like every 2 years, but nobody says anything. Nintendo released Pikmin 3, New Super Mario U, Nintendoland, Super Mario 3D World, Wind Waker HD, Wii Party U (nothing special but a game none the less), Wii Fit U (same thing), and New Super Luigi all in a year, and that doesn’t include all the 3DS games they also made in that year, yet people get on them for not making enough games. Granted there could have been better choices, but these games still take time to make, and they have Mario Kart 8 coming soon as well as Smash Brothers, Yarn Yoshi, the Zelda they are working on, among others. That’s a pretty big list of games from one developer. Everyone expects so much more from them than anyone else. They aren’t perfect and are bound to make mistakes, lots of them. I think I’ve gotten off topic a little here, so I’m just gonna stop myself from going further off topic.

      1. For what? Buying what I want? I shouldn’t have to buy something I don’t want so I can “do my part in helping the Wii U.” It’s Nintendo’s job to market their console to consumers who want to play 3rd party games on their console.

        It’s not my job and it’s not anyone elses… except Nintendo’s.

    1. Mmhmm. That would be me. I accept sympathy cards with cash, eShop codes or Hyrule rupees.

      I have been waiting for a new extinction map for some time. Wish I could say I’m surprised, but after (no) Nuketown… D:<

        1. You fucking lying trash!!!!! dont give me that shit you scumbag, i just finished playing twilight princess and i couldnt get enough rupees!! shit i GAVE AWAY MY RUPPES AWAY LEFT AND RIGHT and still your greedy ass couldnt stop finding those orange rupees. THEN you made ME fucking wait the billionth time to put those damn rupees back in the treasure chest because your pussy ass was to LAZY TO TAKE FREE MONEY that you could of gave drybones.

          wait one second…. whats that hanging out of your wallet…… what do you mean nothing!! there is clearly something orange there *shoots link in the back with arrows* HEY THIS GUY HAS OVER 2000 RUPEES IN HIS WALLET!! HE’S LYING!!!! you greedy iwata cock sucking bitch….. we dont like lying greedy scumbags like you…… your just like nintendo themselves. GREEDY MONEY HUNGRY REHASHING WHORES, KEEP ON MAKING THOSE BAD DECISIONS LINK!!!!!!

            1. I……AM ….THE …..REAL…..ICE….A.ZEA……AHHHHH!!!!!!! Thats an IMPOSTER!!!!!come OOON guys THE DARKNESS REMEMBER!!!! ITS me good old ice hating iceazeama. COOOME OOOON!!!!! you kknnnoooww. its meeeeee.

            1. Zelda is bargain bin proof. I am referring to it’s initial release. And taking into account the massive software delays we consistently experience. HOWEVER, I would love it sooner!!

        1. Hah, fool! We fanboys known that people can’t possibly have other opinions than us, they’re just being ignorant! The average fanboy brain isn’t able to comprehend that people have different tastes.
          ALL HAIL DICTATORSHIP!
          ALL HAIL BRITANNIA!

        1. lol

          this is hilarious

          do yourself a favor and look at the date of the article

          maybe some of what’s being said is true, maybe it’s all just bullshit (same visual style as skyward sword is definitely bullshit, aonuma already emphasized that it will have an all new visual style) but chances of it being released this year are just about zero

          aonuma didn’t even want to show pictures at the end of last year because it wasn’t ready to be presented to the public yet i.e. a lot of work still needs to be done

          1. i know when it was posted dude… and yes… i know most of the details in there are a bit off… but only because months after, Nin started to state vague changes…and of course there’s going to be changes cuz the game is still in development.

            1. so how can a release date of 2014 still be accurate when even back then it wasn’t even close to be certain (both it being a rumor and the source of the rumor not being sure when it would be finished)

        2. That article is old, and it’s certainly not coming this year, I’ll literally bet you $100 on that. Not a hater, but they haven’t even released a screen shot, and I read that article when it was fresh on Wii U daily. It was just a rumor, which hopefully some of it is true, but the 2014 part, I highly doubt. If it somehow does, I’ll pay up. But don’t get your hopes to high. Especially with Hyrulian Warriors coming out, another tide-me-over Zelda till the real deal comes out.

          1. yah… i know the article is super old and the chances are slim but I’m hoping for this year. (I’m dying for some HD Zelda)

  1. well ifthe want sales on wii u THEN ADD ALL CONTENT AND DLC AND CONTINUE RELEASEING GAMES FOR WII U!!!

    we still have our SMT x FE, X, Bayonetta 2 and Watchdogs. :)

  2. It’s not like it isn’t possible to put DLC on COD Ghosts for the Wii U.There is no excuse.They can put the DLC on the eShop.Easy.

      1. Laziness has nothing to do with it. The bosses make the decisions and the bosses don’t have to do any work to add dlc. It’s just not worth it.

      2. Which the low sales are deliberate on Activisions part. Most of Nintendo COD gamers saw this coming when the site removed the DLC info for Wii U version just like Black Ops 2 did plus they shipped far less copies of the game to further excuse their BS to cut support. DLC is more than possible and if Wii U COD DLC happened, of course people would realize that support is there and will attract more sales.

        But no. Fucking 3rd party like Activision and EA wants to continue bullshitting the bullshit like if Nintendo/fans are that stupid.

  3. Heh heh. Cancelled eh? I warned you guys that this could happen! The Wii U is good, but for the exclusives. For a gem like Call of Duty….go get the Xbox One! If you want Wii Fit U, then get the Wii U xD Still, I’m sticking with my Wii U for Smash Bros and dozens of other Nintendo games while I get my PS4 when it’s on sale in 2020

        1. I knew you’d say that! XD
          And you dont consider the fact that mario is over two decades old and it still gets better reviews and actually tries to implement different features than Crap of Shitty…XD

          1. I agree, Mario games are a lot more unique than the annual COD. Mario does need a break though, but I doubt we will see one for at least another year where as they have already announced the annual COD for this year.

            1. Hopefully it will be at least somewhat different because Sledgehammer studios is developing it. I’m tired of seeing this series making millions of dollars off the same thing while making people pay for content that should have been in the game from the start.

  4. no wonder people don’t buy COD games on Wii U as much as th oter console i mean whats the point if they wont stuff like DLC’s , nintendo u need to start forcing these lazy developers to do the job right not just be cool with it :/

  5. trust me i played the maps and there not all that good i really want my 15 dollars back and the other 60 i payed for battlefield 4

  6. Saw this coming from a mile away and it is one of the main reasons I skipped getting Ghosts for my Wii U. That and the fact it’s just CoD and I already have Blops 2 so whatever. I would much rather have just about any other online FPS at this point.

    I’ve reached the point where I just don’t even care for these fools anymore. It sucks in the big picture because these things are what’s holding the WIi U back despite the fact that the shouldn’t. It doesn’t bother me personally though, I only have so much money and the Wii U will get enough games this year to empty my pockets on no matter what.

  7. I’m getting tired of this. I read the first five words of this article topic, and then said to myself: “LET ME GUESS, SOMETHING’S SKIPPING THE WII U.”

    It seems like whenever I make up my damn mind to purchase a Wii U, one of these articles pop up to hold me back.

  8. Ok so a while ago Nintendo made it very clear that they didn’t want to be part of the speed racing anymore and that they was quite settled with driving around in a family car instead – well…..yeah***

  9. Lmao. I wasn’t even intending on buying this game, but this is just ridiculous. Nintendo fans always complain about DLC skipping Wii U yet they never buy the games!! Support third party, people. It’s not like you have anything new to play anyway. Looks like my plan to get a PS4 was good after all. DLC here I come. :P

  10. The topic is no new maps??? Wow I didn’t see that coming. What about those dedicated servers? Empty promises. The Nintendo COD players know better then to expect a complete experience. We are just waiting for Nintendo to publish a FPS. Then we will really come out in masses to support Activision. You did this to yourself. Wait until a week before the game comes out to include Wii U and wonder why it sold 0.33% total sales.

  11. Maybe I’m ignorant of economics, but isn’t Activision DOOMING it’s Wii U game ports by not “wasting effort” on optimizing the very things for which CoD has gained a demographic: online services?

  12. Lol I think it’s funny when people see this as a bad thing. “Only .01% of sales came from Wii U!” “Call of Duty DLC Skipping Wii U!”

    GOOD! I’m glad the Nintendo fan base is rejecting this crap, we have absolutely NO interest in this corporate mainstream crap. Yeah Wii U is having problems, but more COD and Assassin’s Creed etc are not the answer. We need more RPG games, Indie Games, First Party Games, stuff like that.

    Nintendo fans are a great mixture of retro gamers, unique and intelligent gamers, children, healthy people, and all the quirky people! We don’t need or want Nintendo to turn into some Americanized EA type company. We also don’t need them trying to appeal to Western gamers more by pulling a Squeenix.

    Keep at it Big N! Acquire a few new small but talented game studios, kick up the marketing, break out a few of your lesser used IPs, keep rolling the games out, and for all of our sakes, KEEP BEING NINTENDO!

    1. I have always thought Nintendo gamers enjoy variety much more than others.
      So games with niche fan base, might find a home on Nintendo platforms.

  13. I think one of the reasons Wii U is failing is because of Nintendo releasing too many 3rd party titles during its launch. Mainly the marketing but well that’s too obvious. Anywaay I love nintendo, always have and always will. But nintendo fanboys, please stop bragging continuously about super smash bros, mario kart 8, X Bayonetta, etc. I get it they’re great titles but bragging about them is getting quite annoying, even for a die hard nintendo fan myself. So please, keep your cool :)

  14. It’s expected bullshit because you know why?

    They never supported it to begin with, was NEVER advertised for Wii U. Ever.

    I said before at release, in game there was one Ghost s case on the bottom shelf for Wii U.

    Then they spout “it doesn’t sell well”…

  15. FINALLY!! Activision says something about whether dlc was coming to the Wii U version of a COD or not. Surprised you didn’t say anything regarding Black Ops 2 dlc before.

  16. This sucks. I really liked Zombies mode on WiiU and was looking forward to getting Ghosts at some point for the Extinction mode. Without the enticement of the DLC, im less likely to buy.

  17. Doesnt surprise me..They never got around to supporting BLOPS 2 for the WiiU. I really would like to know the reasoning for no DLC on the WiiU. Is it a Nintendo problem or is the the 3rd parties that dont want to do it??
