The difference with that was that it was an exclusive that was delayed to make multiplat because the Wii U's install base was not high enough. Also that was the smart thing to do as the PS3 sku was the top selling version. This is a whole different beast altogether as this game is multiplat and the install base for Wii U is not much higher than it was when they announced the Rayman delay to begin with. Between the AC games, ZombieU which was not profitable and had it's sequel canned to Rayman sales, it's no wonder the Watch Dogs Wii U delay happened. People need to vote with their wallet instead of bitching about a Rayman game from last year. |
But if it was an exclusive it could have sold better. Who knows can't argue either way.
I thought they delayed it because of the iron clad contracts Micrososft has a bout multiplatforms must be released at the same time or better content provided if later.
If that is indeed true then it jsut shows Nintendo doesn't have such measures in place in their contracts which only disadvantages them. However I doubt any third party would sign a Nintendo contract with that condition put in place.
