i am greatful for what Ubi has do e for the Wii u to date, they were very patient w the Wii u and it did not pay off for them

Nintendo needs to stay true to thier word at launch and do something about getting 3rd parties on board- you count on Nintendo  to defend their own console and or console owners .   But I don t think Nintndo can be  successful w out 3 rd parties 

Not as patient as Wii U fans waiting for Rayman Legends. Maybe fans of Origins didn't "pay" them enough. Perhaps they should have ported it to other platforms?


Why would they have released Rayman at a time when it surely would have tanked because people were not buying the Wii u and the sub base was pitifully low-even Nintendo was delaying their own games then-   Obviously they had an out In their agreement w Nintnedo based on sub base and Mintndo let them take it instead of stepping up and defending their own machine -   Kind of hard to have faith In a platform when the Company who owns it does not have faith in it either 

Ironically, the Wii U was selling poorly due to a lack of games/momentum.  Arguably, Legends it would have sold much better on the Wii U had it released during the first games drought, before Nintendo's first party titles were getting released. In the end, the Wii U version of Legends sold second only to PS3, even with its crazy userbase lead.

It was Nintendo that showed Ubisoft the most faith, constantly putting Rayman Legends in the spotlight during the Wii U reveal and lead up to launch. Plenty of free advertisement and hype given, but ultimately for naught.
