at what point did they lie? They wanted to bring the game, they tried (had it running at 22 fps), they saw that the costs were outweighing the revenue, they released info on the cancellation and moved on.

They did the exact same for the ps3 and 360, this isn't them hating Nintendo, this is them working as a BUSINESS. This is what happens. You can whine and say they lied, but if they're losing money, then it makes sense to not push through a project.

And no they didn't take people's money. The game was already funded by pc gamers



They also said its looking great on wiiu and running great, i remember a dev saying he had just done a couple of laps on the wiiu version and it ran great!!



Ran great as in making good progress. He said that a year before the game launched elsewhere. Clearly the game was nowhere near complete for any console whatsoever, but I assume they were running an alpha version for all consoles. This is how games work. Work is made, testing is done through the alpha phase, testing moves onto closed beta, then (depending on the game) open beta, and then launch.

I'm betting they were running the alpha version on wii u when they said that. 1 year later when the game got more complex, they realized that they needed more power and thought it wouldn't be worth continuing
