So tell me, why is Ubisoft giving such huge Wii U support but not Watch Dogs?
Might it be that Ubisoft Montreal is putting all their Wii U development effort into Assassin's Creed III? Might it be that the game engine hasn't been ported to Wii U yet?
“Not at this time. We have so many titles in development for Wii U right now that we need to keep that team focused and this is a very very ambitious game. But it’s not out of the question.”
-Ubisoft
As you can see, I'm offering cirucmstances just as plausible as you are which are also backed up by some of the actual developers. Why do you continue to insist that only the negative circumstances are plausible? You assume way too damn much with claims like they would outsource if they wanted it. Outsource it to whom that has the game engine ported over to Wii U and enough readily avaiable dev kits and resources lying around not already working on soemthing to take on the job?

It is plausible they can't port it over due to lack of resources etc, but I'd rather stick to my assumption that if a massive company like Ubisoft really wanted to port the game to Wii U then they would. Regardless of the reason their absense puts the Wii U in bad place in regards to 3rd party support, this is the only point I care to make.

So they are already heavily supporting Wii U, they even have a big exclusive at launch, their Montreal executive says it's possible but they've already put their focus on other consoles but could still happen and you conclude that means Wii U 3rd party support is in a bad place.
I just wanted to make sure we got that straight.

Remove Ubisoft/watchdogs from the equation and my arguement still stands and Nintendo still have little to no strong 3rd party support next year and there are a ton of big 3rd party games coming out. Tomb raider, Devil May Cry, Metal Gear Solid Revengeance, MGS:ground zero, Bioshock, Final Fantasy: Lightning returns and Star Wars.
Ubisoft like treyarch supported nintendo last gen, I'm not concerned with one specific company or more the general behaviour of 3rd party. But if you feel confident in the support the Wii U has announced for 2013 then thats fine or equally if you expect all the above to be announced for the system then that too is fine. I don't have that confidence and so I consider the system to be in a very unclear position at the moment.
