This is the type of game I usually rush out and buy day one and I haven't picked it up yet (nor 101 either, which I'd rather get)...
Just not feeling it at the moment...

The first one bombed at launch too, but ended up having great legs. Maybe this will be the same?



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

It's good that it went multiplat then to give it a little boost at least, especially since Wii U can't sell 3rd party games.

Maybe you should take a look at how much it sold on each platform. WiiU version outsold any other in PAL charts first week.


Is there a point in there somewhere?

Your assertion that Wii U can't sell third party games when this version outperforms its rivals.


10-100 copies more is not outperforming!


LOL that is exactly what it is... Nobody said it was a massive success in sales on Wii U. Just that it sold better and that is with Ubisoft delaying it to put it on other paltforms. You know the platforms people were petitioning for it to go to. Then they didnt support it.

Nintendo fans actually probably dodged a bullet with this not being Wii U exclusive. If it had come out last Feburary and flopped, on top of Ubi Soft not being happy with Zombi U sales, they may have pulled the plug on other Wii U projects like Watch Dogs.

Now at least you're getting Watch Dogs and ACIV (for those who care).

This game is the reason my faith in Ubisoft is restored, people just don't know a good game when they see it, this or most copies are sold digitally, I hope it's the latter, because there need t. Be more of this from ubi and less ass and cry.

Good point. This is actually quite accurate.

That is such an ignorant thing to say. FPS can be fun to, you know. It's all a matter of perspective.

Fun? They may be gripping for their story or characters, but CoD, BF, KZ and even my all time favorite, BioShock Infinite have nothing on 2D platformers when it comes to sheer fun.

I personally know one million people that planned on buying the game on its original release date. Have of us actually camped out weeks in advance but then Ubisoft announced the delay. We wound up losing interest. True story! Too many heavy hitters this time of year. Rayman just can't keep up.
