Pity, coz I'm not getting a WiiU for this game, but it'll probably just be a timed exclusive anyway.

I have to say I like the artstyle of Origins better BTW.


I'm sure those grapes are sour too. Anyways since there is no way to prove that this is only a timed exclusive; it should then be treated as a Wii U exclusive, I for one will pick this up.  I waited for the X360 version of Muramasa, Arc Rise Fantasia, etc that was suppose to be ported over for the HD system that never came into fruition.  In fact, I don't see many Wii U games being ported over to the PS3 or X360 especially a year or so from now.  Especially seeing how the Wii U versions will technically be vastly superior to these last generation systems (we already see it in ports how vastly superior the Wii U versions have been).  If there would be ports it would be games being cancelled for the Vita or currently on the Vita; being optimized for the Wii U,  seeing how that platform(Vita) is currently struggling.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! Don't they understand Nintendo fanboys and casuals (98% of the WiiU buyers) will all buy the "New" Mario game and ignore Rayman Legends, even if Rayman will be the much better (and "newer") game???

I don't care if it's a temporary exclusive, but you HAVE to release this on PS3 & Vita!!!

Until the Vita overcomes it's current problems; I wouldn't hold my breath my friend.

nice! I hope the first game gets ported to WiiU later


?? the original is on Wii and the Wii U is backward compatible, it would be a waste of time to port it


It's the lame version of the game, though. I think Roma wants the HD version.

 

I am extremely surprised that this is a full blown exclusive. This isn't something I expected to see at all. Weird stuff..

why is it a lame version?? Its the exact same thing, it has the same features as the PS360 the only difference is that it doesnt have that extra 720p sheen, but even then why wait for a port that will proably never happen, when he could just get the game for the HDs or even PC for dirt cheap? If he is that concerned about HD

well I'm not in a hurry so I has no problem waiting and if doesn't happen and I feel the need to get it I will get it on one of the platforms I own :P

Ubisoft hates Nintendo. They should stop trying to troll them and release proper games like Family Fued 2012. I'm afraid that they aren't going to support the Wii U as fantastically as the Wii.



Tease.

It's probably a timed exclusive, but for now it's best just to assume for the time being that it is exclusive

@squilliam: they hate Nintendo? Oh, you've got that all backwards! I bet they love Nintendo. First off: 8 games for the WiiU - all launch games or launch window. That's not hating. And last year 45% of their income was from Nintendo consoles. 45% - that's almost half of their income! There's no hating that.



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

I think he was being sarcastic.

Being a launch title will help it a fair deal.
