Why Batman: Arkham Knight can easily run on Wii U:

Oh my damn... Look at dat detail on his cape!

That's clearly 8th generation material. Rocksteady employees are simply out of their damn minds! #fact

"Not in the way that people imagine it. It’s the power fantasy of driving this legendary vehicle; if it can only do a top speed of 25 mph that’s not the power fantasy and that’s why we couldn’t have done that previously," Ginn responded.


i can see it now,.. on ps4 the batmobile drives 90 mph but tops out at 60 mph on xbone.

Let's cross out WB from the list of the Western 3rd party publishers that support the Wii U.

Anyone has a list of those remaining? Activision if I'm not mistaken. Ubisoft has been recently crossed out.


WB will always gladly release the Lego games on WiiU. Wouldn't be surprised if Lego City Undercover 2 was already in the works.

Ubisoft hasn't officially announced they're dropping WiiU support. They're releasing Child of Light to the platform next month and then Watch Dogs later on. Wii U probably gets the last-gen version of the 2 AC games rather than Unity.


That's not support, when it's not full support. Even then, LEGO City would be a 1st party game.

2nd tier support like movie cash ins and the sorts do no count as proper support.

Ubisoft has abandoned ship most likely. Watchdogs version is now a TBA 2015 title ("may be coming in 2014 means that"). Assassins Creed Unity already confirmed not coming to Wii U and then the rest is speculation from your side, so let's cross them out.

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

damn makes me wonder if the Batmobile is going to be as game defining as the dog in COD:Ghosts

Yeah, at this point I'm starting to believe that some people will never learn.

 

It's a current gen console, plain and simple.

Let's put an asterisk instead of a cross-out. Neither of these companies have expressly stated they're leaving the platform totally out of their consideration. If a game make sense to the userbase and is technically feasible, they'll provide it to the WiiU.



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

I love how the first page posts have already covered some of the future threads on this topic. AMAZING.

I hope they realize how incompetent that just made them look.

Correct, it would have been less bad for their image if they kept quiet. Now they're wandering in EA territory.

Ruh roh. They made Zero999's sh*t list (which coincidentally will have every third party publisher on it before the generation is over).
