Its a shame because I own both AC3 and AC4 on my WiiU and have already sold my 360 , so aside form unity on the PS4 I will have no way to play the "last gen" game :/

rouge will probably get a next gen part sometimes at the beginning of the next year, so just wait for that

Well, AC fans that own a Wii U buy them on other systems where the games don't lack contents or run at 25FPS.

I doubt that Wii U owners are more interested in Just Dance than Assassin's Creed, it's just more profitable for Ubisoft because JD games are cheap as hell to port.

JD4 came out when the franchise was still popular and most JD players are used to Wiimote controls. JD2014 on Wii U was bundled with the 8GB model and promoted on TV together with the Wii version.

There's an eShop sale of Ubisoft games at the moment and both ACIV and JD2014 are at 14.99 €.

ACIV is #1 in Germany right now and JD2014 isn't in the top 20... #2: Child of Light, #3: ZombiU, #4 Rayman Legends, #14: SC Blacklist, #15: ACIII, #16: Rabbids Land.

Well, the JD audience might not use the eShop that much...

 

EDIT: number of ratings on the German eShop as of the 21th of August:

ZombiU:4017

ACIII: 2854

ACIV: 2854

SC Blacklist: 708

JD4: 447

JD2014: 377

JD Kids 2014: 8 (lol)



so ps4 and x1 shouldn't be getting just dance then lol



I believe a lot of real gamers that had a Wii on last generation and has a WiiU this generation also had/have other major console from sony or microsoft, and prefer tto play the mature games on those consoles.

It is a problem that Nintengo got itself in and will be VERY hard to get out, specially releasing outdated consoles



The funny thing is, according to VGC, Just Dance has only outsold AC by 80k.

Yep, id support third parties on Nintendos consoles if nintendo had parity with what the others offer system wise. Probably 12 or so games so far that I wouldve bought for wii u but I just prefer Microsofts acoount system and achievements.
