Ubisoft confirms Wii U is a next-gen console.

[ROBOTECHHEAVEN]

ubisoft has said many times, that they consider the wiiu a next gen system. the wiiu is just the first one out the gate, like the 360 was on the wii and ps3, if people out there wana use the logic that the wiiu isnt next gen for what ever reason, then u they should also consider the 360 part of gen 6 since it launched a year before the ps3. all anyone should ever consider is the games and having fun with them. that is and always will be for me the most important thing. just my 2 cents :)
