why are wii u owners hear giving idiot answers like I am going to avoid it.

All these media outlets are laughing at you right now cause you falling for rumors and speculation.

How about use normal logic for once and pre order the game, What will you lose by doing that? Nothing if its cancelled you get your refund.


95% the game is being cancelled, not showing up on nintendo list of games coming out for 2014, and no comment from ubi soft on the game existent on wiiu.

Yes I think its quite possible Ubisoft is negotiating with Nintendo for funding for the wii u version knowing that it will sell poorly. However the reality is, it's likely the weakest version and will only do wii u damage. The wii u is weak hardware and its only really worth getting high quality exclusive games for. Multiformat titles will likely perform better elsewhere including ps3 and 360 so there is little point to them. Yes Watchdogs could have been enhanced by the gamepad but then if the main action screen performance is weak it still may play better on ps3 and 360.

Wii u doesn't need Watchdogs.

i agree with this, wiiu doesn't need anything though it pretty much dead after 2014 i'm sure nintendo will discontinue it.

It's coming don't worry.



Why are we acting like this is the first time a company doesn't comment about a Wii/WiiU version of a game? You'd think we'd be used to it by now. What the fuck...



Ehh, I thought the game looked interesting almost two years ago when it was first revealed. By now I'm not even curious about it anymore. Maybe it'll be good, but whatever, I can just play it on PC if I want to try it out eventually.

The same was being said about Call of Duty Ghosts on Wii U. Activision wouldn't comment on the existence of the game and everybody believed it wasn't coming. Eventually it did come.
I don't believe Nintendo put Call Of Duty on their release list last year either, probably because it came out in November, which leads me to believe that Watch Dogs will once again be delayed to the end of the year and will come out on all mayor (home) consoles including Wii U.



 

They are probably waiting to see if Nintendo throws them some cash.

If Nintendo has to throw some cash around to get multiplats I would rather get the new version of Street Fighter IV, and I guess most Wii U owners feels the same.
If they do it then it will be more politics about wanting to keep Ubisoft happy, than really caring about that game.

that may be true but the fact is we don't really know. So why let some internet fools dictate what you should do. If you do that you already lost. 

Also that Nintendo list was ucoming games. I f you look at  them they are scheudled to come in the next qtr. Watch Dogs hasnt even got a date and last year was rumored to be pushed back to like sept.

This means Nintendo needs to pay for it or its not happening. Forget it. I following Rol and only buying Nintendo published games.

Well, you do realize that by only buying Nintendo's games, you're pretty much proving the point that Nintendo gamers don't buy 3rd party games, therefore why should 3rd parties devote money and resources to developing for Nintendo consoles?

And if I were weighing the options of whether or not my company should release a big game on a console that is not only selling poorly at the moment but whose audience will largely ignore my game anyway no matter how much time and effort I put into it, then you're darn right I'm going to want some financial guarantees for me to make it happen.  Companies like Ubisoft aren't running charities.


i wouldnt bother, if some "gamers" and yes i am using that term loosely want to miss out on games out of butthurt, they only hurt themselves
