Simple fact is: Ubisoft will look at the costs of porting their games to WiiU vs. the profit of WiiU sales, if it isn´t profitable, they will do what Bethesda and EA did, same with Actvision.


Bestheda never made a serious game on a Nintendo console so lol. Porting shit to the WIIU costs less than a million $$

You, probably like many, got that part from an incorrect quote. Gaming journalism is really not the best.

Original quote was:
"out of 7 games we are planning to launch, 5 games are ports, so those are games for which there is a quite small reinvestment to do. [...] For the other five games, you are talking about small budget, I'd say of less than a million euro to make some of the ports, I'd estimate. "

Which makes sense for Just Dance 4 or Skylanders, since both of them also had a Wii version, but definitely not for Assassin's Creed 3 and all other big budget ports.
