I'm baffled people are giving the deceitfulness of the studio a free pass. Yes the Wii U is not powerful to handle the game to a standard. But the overpromising, constant misleading rhetoric and the rudeness is something they should be accounted for.

"The Wii U is underpowered" is a red herring detracting from the real issue present.

At least they gave the Wii U a chance. They wanted to believe in it, they wanted it to work, they really did. And then reality set in. The studio was brutally honest, which other dev would reveal this information? Which other dev would release the games current framerate? Which other dev would admitt to problems getting the game to run at desired performance levels? Would you rather they just silently cancel it? Would you rather they make some BS excuse? Would you rather they released a cut down version that runs at 30fps without any weather effects? What would you have them do? Like seriously, da hell. Ian was civil, polite and honest and only lost his cool once all the crazies came out of the woodwork.
