Why?? They are still giving the Wii U games. 

It all started with delaying Raymond Legends, after that it was the whole Watch Dogs debacle on how they nerfed the games graphics, then after that it was not bringing any of their AAA titles to Wii U, then the nail in the coffin was the fact they have a Wii U game, but they want to sit on it and not use it to help the Wii U install base if the game is as good as they are saying it is.

How in the world did they "Nerf" the graphics?  Also, everyone here does realize that they only support systems that make them money right?

By nerf I mean the drastic downgrade the game got after the E3 reveal and that they took 6 months to "polish" the game and it still came out looking nowhere near as good as when it was first shown off. I am sorry but to me you cannot justify Ubisofts actions as of late to me. I know they need to make money, but a lot of their choices don't seem that way. Why delay Raymond Legends on Wii U when the Wii U was in the middle of a gaming drought? I gaurntee the game would have sold much better on the Wii U if it kept its original release date and was not delayed almost half a year.  I have just lost a lot of respect for them as of late.

I notice very little difference.  At E3 showings they often enable PC settings that are incredibly taxing so people walk away wowed.  This is life.

They possibly delayed Rayman on the Wii U so that a) They could divert resources towards finishing the other platform's versions sooner, and b) so that they can advertise for all platforms at once (Thus saving money).  Again it is a business.
