I think it's quite a clear-cut case.

I was thinking that it would be cause Ubisoft wanted a $99 DLC for Rayman and Nintendo was like, "Lulz, get your anti-consumer nonsense out of here"

Either that or Ubisoft made rayman model with all the animations already done and gave it to Sakurai but Sakurai was instead like "Lulz, weren't you the people that delayed Rayman legends for the wiiU just so it could launch with other consoles and now you want me to essentially give you free ads by making him a playable characer? Get outta here"
