I think they'll rue that decision anyway, or at least the decision to release Rayman Legends at a time when it is going to be buried beyond belief. |
This more than anything else.
Rayman Origins didn't sell much on Wii which has a massive installed base (didn't do big numbers on any system) for no reason to think it'd have done great on WiiU. It did have a chance to gain a following on WiiU but I can't fault Ubisoft. Without question they'll sell more going multi-plat. WiiU's soft sales just made that an easy decision.
Irony is this was the one game that was playable on WiiU's in stores to showcase the gamepad.

Going multiplatform was indeed a wise decision but to delay the WiiU version was a big mistake. They would have been alone with tons of people desperate to find a new game for their Wii U.

But with Microsofts release rules, it is either one or the other.
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
- George Orwell, ‘1984’
