Not really. Games don't usually triple their first 2 months of sales, ACIV will top out at 200k. Did we ever get 101 shipments???

Ubi are making the right decision with Watchdogs. It's their next 8m+ selling franchise (that's what they're hoping for) they shouldn't be worrying about a sku that is gonna sell 50k - 200k.

It is beyond me why you think ubisoft is right by disrespecting their nintendo consumers. They aren't even gonna lose any special date if they release all versions a little later. and it will sell far more than that. 50k, seriously?

And AC4 is tracking ahead of AC3, wich surprise surprise, is already at 230k and on it's way to reaching 300k (triple of it's first two months).

Believe me, Ubisoft would lose alot of sales if they released later. Watchdogs has lost way too much steam already because of its delay, if it'd release in the holiday period now it wouldn't stand a chance against the big hitters like Destiny or Cod or whatever else is coming this holiday season. So releasing it during the summer, where there are hardly any releases, is their best bet to get the most out of the PS and Xbox versions, if they have to put the Wii U version on hold to get the other versions out by then, then that is the best thing they can do.

this is a single version we are talking about. when the other versions get ready, it shouldn't take more than two weeks to finish the wii u one. and they lost a lot of rayman sales on wii u with a similar behaviour.
