I'm not doing any boycott right now, but you haven't done much other than state that it's your opinion that it's dumb. That only proves you feel that way. So you looked arrogant for presenting it as not only fact, but us being dumb because you didn't agree with us.

Well, boycotts in general are pretty dumb. Boycotts over non-harmful business decisions are double dumb. (1) 

Wii owners want core games from Ubi. Got it. What happens if Ubi provides Wii owners with good games? Does the boycott end or does it continue to be spiteful? (2)

And if it does end, what exactly was the point of it in the first place? That people didn't buy games they didn't want and called it a boycott? (3)

I don't buy things I don't want on a daily basis. I guess I must be boycotting 99.99% of the world's products.

Not to mention the fact that Wii owners don't know whether Ubi is working on 15 core games for the Wii or not as I type this. (4)

It's a big uproar, leading to a "boycott", all over a bunch of non-announcements. (4)


1. Well if it wastes people's money, they could see it as a kind of harm of a sort. Whatever. 

2. It would end. Any further would be counterproductive. It would make the boycotters look like liars. And brute wouldn't be one of them. Brute just stated it would take more than just one or two games.

3. A proper boycott would be any Ubisoft developed game (which means NMH is fine, since Grasshopper supported the Wii), regardless of system. 

4. Some actually stated they would be fine with Ubisoft as they did that. How does that excuse using one of their key presentation events to show almost nothing but shovelware for the Wii (except for maybe RRR3)?

5. Didn't I just state that it was more than just the lack of announcements? Did you just ignore that part?  Even if you don't agree with the boycott, you can't just pretend there was one reason for the boycott. I stated three, that most of us were upset about.

I don't care if you don't agree with us, but don't twist facts to make our grievances less than they actually are. 



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
