It wasn't the cancelation, it was the treatment. I've beaten this to death, articles are plentiful, so here are cliffnotes: rather than compete for spotlight with Fkrza, Drive Club, and The Crew, PC lied to and mislead the Wii U consumer base and Nintendo focused media to whip up hype, constantly talking up the Wii U's "secret sauce" and how great it looked on the system. At one point they even said it was running well on the most demanding track under the most demanding in game weather conditions. Which we now know was bullshit. And then, as soon as they had a publisher and didn't rely on the good will of communities, they canned this "great looking" version that was "running good" on the most demanding track without ceremony and pulled the "Nintendo audience is kiddy and wouldn't like our game anyway" card. It was blatant, textbook manipulation. And given we saw not one screenshot, picture, off screen video of the game on Wii U - not a single one - I am inclined to believe it never existed. At all. Beyond maybe a pre-alpha build. |
IIRC some off screen pictures of Project Cars for Wii U leaked. I don't ever recall any direct images though.
