bolded: terrible conclusion. they shouldn't take resources out of the wii u version and release all versions at the same time. simple math would put it in june or july.

Let me see that math

other versions + wii u resources = wii u delayed and others on may.

each version with it's own original resources = all versions slightly later than the may 27 we got = june or july.


*Has a strange sense of deja-vu*

OK, so you're saying that if they left the Wii U developers doing what they're doing, they could have had it finished by June or July, and the other versions would have been delayed until June or July so everything is released at the same time. So you claim that the Wii U version would have been done in an extra 2 months.

So can you explain how borrowing the Wii U developers for 2 months increases the Wii U versions dev time for another 6 months until the autumn? 

That doesn't make sense.

Why would Ubi risk announcing a SECOND delay for ALL versions, especially since the first delay announcement was so damaging? Source

 

(Edited to add) QUOTE Zero999 - "other versions of watch dogs will release in may because they are using wii u's resources. without then, they would release slightly later, with the wii u version simultaneously."

And how did you calculate that the Wii U version was only 1 to 2 months away from completion anyway?

Where's your source on that?

resources from the wii u version were taken away several months before the date of may 27. when the other versions get released, the wii u version will have to make up for the lost time and only release several months later. if everyone was working with their original version, all of them would release simultaneously a little later than may 27.

bolded: ALL VERSIONS would be delayed if they released after june. it's not about others. it was ubisoft's job to manage it's resources and release everything on time. it's their problem if they delayed it from november to "spring" and still couldn't finish.
