don't buy this game folks, and don't buy rayman or splintercell.  we need tosend a clear msg that ubisoft sgould stop suppurt

These type of comments always confuse me...I mean is like you are talking to what...100 active Nintendo fans on VGC? Even if those 100 people buy the game it won't make a difference. 


 Even if just one person snaps out of the 3rd party cockblock mentality then yippee.  it's for their own good.

New Ubisoft product schedule lists Wii U version of Watch Dogs

Not to be a killjoy, but the capcom website officially listed Devil May Cry PSP for years, and was still up on the site months after they publicly announced it had been canned, the only reason its now gone is because of a site redesign.

If they utilize the pad properly, I may get this on wiiu over the ps4. I like the idea of the wiiu pad being the protagonists device in my hand, seeing what he sees.... This is the game I actually went out and preordered my ps4 so early for, tho. I was very disappointed when it was no longer a launch title. Oh well, good things come to those who wait...

Same functionality has already been demo'd on various tablet and phones using the companion app (ps4) / smartglass (xbone)


I'm not using a vita, or a tablet or smartphone.... The vita lacks buttons, no I don't think virtual touchpad buttons are the same, and having a phone or tablet laying next to me or on my lap on top of the controller is just.... Lame to me. That's why nobody uses it. The wiiu is the only one that is a natural fit. So no, I won't be using a generic knock off.

Vita has just as many buttons as the Wii tablet.

The character in the game uses a phone to do his bidding for the most part, looking down at your own phone as a separate form of control is arguably more fitting to the gameplay, either way you have to look away from the screen and take one hand off of the controller to perform any additional input.

I suspect however, that whatever I or anyone else say, no matter how much sense it makes, you're going to side with the WiiU version regardless, so this discussion ends here.

I suspect major publishers will start abandoning 7th gen PS3/X360 and by extension Wii U soon.

This list from Ubisoft only confirms it, as after Watchdogs everything is PS4/X1/PC only.

Interestingly Ubisoft has gone on record to state the Wii U verion was built similtaneously with the X1/PS4 version.  Development on the 360/PS3 version started later.

OT: the release date of this game is going to be important.  If it slots in between DK TF and MK8 I can see it doing quite well, after MK8 could be trickier.

Sweet... another great 3rd party game that nobody will buy because it doesn't come with day 1 DLC or it's a straight port of the current gen versions or some other lame reason.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

besides DLC thing, there is no excuse this time because it was built with PS4/X1 version
