You've heard it, everyone. Buy Ubisoft games to show them that halfassed is good enough for you.

I thought Rayman Legends was the best version??

Regardless, you know even if they put the effort into Splinter Cell, ect it would have sold the same.

To be fair, no one is buying that game.

Yup but WiiU is a new system who's target audience is platformer fans, decent launch games should be doing well.

I don't think Rayman Legends qualifies as a launch game, and I don't think there's any evidence that demonstrates that the target audience on Wii U is platformer fans. Anyway, it's a shame about Legends. I'll be getting it for sure on Wii U, since Ancel is a genius and the Wii U version is, reportedly, the best one.

But back to the OP. The sad reality of the industry is that sometimes great games sell lousy, and lousy game sell great. I'm not sure who Ms. Rogers is, but her tweet is redundant. Obviously a company will continue to support a line of products only if they remain profitable. Now, if she's asking consumers to buy products they don't want to guarantee future products they MAY want, then she's just asking too much.
