I think the game is done by now and they are holding it back since they think it will sell the best during the holiday season. That's why this day has taken so long. They want to cash in on Christmas. I think it maybe a bit of oversight on there part with the release date. I don't think they totally get that Smash is going to crush any news about there game releasing. They think right now that Smash is going to sell a lot of consoles and that's is going to give them more people to sell to. It would have been much better to release sometime in October. But I so think we'll get blamed for the bad sales even though it's a issue they created. |
The game is not 100% done yet, I have a friend that works in Ubi and the title has not reached Gold status yet (and that usually happens 1 month before release), but they do wanted to cash on the holiday season as traditionally Nintendo consoles and games sell better during that period of the year, I don't think they wanted to go against Smash and maybe we may see a last minute 1 week bump, but even that is unlikely, actually the full month is too crowded for Ubisoft interest, they have 4 big games coming out for the other consoles and they are clashing with themselves in several products, but they cannot delay anything and risk losing the holiday shopping spree push.
