My question is why was it so important for those other versions to hit their date? Games get pushed back all the time, why not do it here? Was Ubisoft strapped for cash at the time? Did they mismanage the game so badly that it was too late to push back by the time they realized it was behind schedule?

The smart decision is to always have all versions release at the same time. I am sure they know that. Why did they mess that up?


No that would not have been smart. The game was ALREADY pushed back twice. So yes it was very important for them to hit that date otherwise they would have lost sales. If your game isnt on the shelf it cant make money. Maybe they were scrapped for cash, maybe they did mismanage(hell the delays tell me they were mismanaged). The wii U version was going to be the worse selling by far anyone who thinks otherwise is lying ot themselves. So you might as well sacrifice the weakest link in the chaing anyway to maximize profits. So if they waited Watchdogs would have had stiffer competition in the fall/winter. So yes they did the best thing they could have did.
