I'm unconvinced; this "in between" line smells like placation to me; I recall them saying the same about AC4. As my sig says, I bet they just toss PS3/360 assets onto Wii U and optimize it just enough to make it (semi) playable, just like AC4, Splinter Cell, etc.

It's certainly different from the old rumor that the game was being made with 4-One assets and ported down primarily.

Being a separate development gives me a bit of hope though.

I'm actually betting on them using PS3/XBox360 assets, and porting it up slightly.  This would support their statement far better overall.

Porting it down from the PS4/XBox1, while more than likely possible, would probably cause their statement to stop at "between", and not clarify that it's closer to the PS3/XBox360.

Having said that, I believe the statement that they want to develop it to best use the Gamepad at a separate studio points me in the direction of damage control over the Wii U version's delay, and I don't believe it one bit that they are trying to make the Wii U version a solid port.
