WTF? Yes, that is actually correct. I just checked the different release dates. W101 sept 15 Americas. W101 aug 23 Europe. So Nintendo actually release W101 in Europe virtually the same day as Splinter Cell releases. I'm sure Ubisoft is in love with Nintendo of Europe now. Not.

maybe third party games would sell on the WiiU if the third parties released good ports like this. Ubisoft, you keep on proving yourself as my favorite western developer :D

I'm so happy to see Ubisoft making an effort on the WiiU port of Splinter Cell Blacklist. As of this time i own PS3 and WiiU. I'd be completely retarded to get anything but the WiiU version.

+Impressive gamepad support

+Superior lighting, physics and textures

+No screen tearing

-Lack of offline splitscreen coop multiplayer. This is kinda a sad, especially as this mode would be much better on WiiU with one player using the TV and the other using the gamepad. Hopefully we'll get a DLC where this is included. Missed opportunity.

Other versions suffer from screen tearing? Why the hell is that still a problem in 2013?

But yeah, probably going to get this and Deus Ex and get my long-neglected sneaky bastard on. The lack of local co-op sucks, but if I'm honest, I probably won't get much chance to use it, anyway.
