<p>Michael Pachter, an analyst for Wedbush Securities has made claims that the Wii U Pro Controller was designed to accommodate <em>Call of Duty</em> for the Wii U. However, he has no source for this claim, stating, &#8220;Activision never said anything to me, but I know that {for) big games like <em>Call Of Duty</em> they said, &#8216;No, we&#8217;re not putting it on there if you don&#8217;t give us a conventional controller&#8217;. So (Nintendo) gave in.&#8221;</p>
<p>In case you heard a rumor about it, well, now you know where the comment originated.</p>
