It's no surprise to anybody with a brain, but Call of Duty: Ghosts appears to have done very well. They've shipped a billion dollars worth of units (some 17 million), some of which will presumably have been snapped up by consumers. That's the problem - we just don't know.

If you own a Wii U, it might almost seem like you're being ignored by the big publishers. Sure, you're getting Call of Duty (who isn't?) and Square Enix managed to release Deus Ex to the system, but there are certainly some big holes.
