Forums - Gaming - Ubisoft Explains Why Assassin's Creed Unity Is Skipping Wii U

Almost honest. Just needed to finish it with low sales of past iterations. Nobody can't blame them for that.



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

Lmao the president of the company told everyone the reason like a month ago. Ubisoft needs to just stop getting involvd
involved with negative press. They should spend more time focusing on the flop that is watch dogs and waning just dance and assassins creed sales. All of their franchises are spiraling.

Watchdogs has so far sold over 6.5M copies. And thats is not including digital sales.

Thats $390M in revenue from physical sales alone.

In contrast a game like say.. mario kart 8 has sold around 2.7M.

If watchdos is a flop, then its  a flop most companies would like to have.

You'd think they'd want more, really.

dont you see the other side of the picture ?

I do but that doesnt make there statement here NOT true. We know Unity would not run on WIi U. Not at least without serious compromise and no one wants that right? Now can we argue whether or not this is the main reason for it not showing up on WIi U? Hell yeah. But lets not act like Ubi is telling a bold face lie they arent.


I agree theres some truth but still its not the main reason.

we have seen horrible downgrades before but that did not stop them from making it.

I just dont buy it.

At least give a good reasoning why Rogue isn't coming to the Wii U then.


The CEO said Wii u owners don t buy AC titles.   That is true and a damn good reason -  sucks for people like me who only own a Wii u and did buy ACIII and ACIV-   But I understand they can t keep releasing g games in a poor environment 

re the Unity game sounds like the reason a above still applies AND the Wii U does not have the power for them to develop the game as they want -   As much as people on here are complaining that that they should at least release a scaled down version they are mostly the same people who would say it is a "lazy port" if did that, the game would not sell well regardless and the same people would blame it on Ubi

 

i am greatful for what Ubi has do e for the Wii u to date, they were very patient w the Wii u and it did not pay off for them

Nintendo needs to stay true to thier word at launch and do something about getting 3rd parties on board- you count on Nintendo  to defend their own console and or console owners .   But I don t think Nintndo can be  successful w out 3 rd parties

They're probably just trying to avoid more debates and stuff.



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

Really? Still after Driveclub get a gruelling reception people are still up in arms about graphics and a few missing pixels.

With stupidity like this mediocre games will keep on coming. Gamers (or fanboys for that matter) should start being more vocal about gameplay. A new extra pixels have never made a game better, but a few extra missions/game modes/options will make a game better.

Not as patient as Wii U fans waiting for Rayman Legends. Maybe fans of Origins didn't "pay" them enough. Perhaps they should have ported it to other platforms?

Só, please make a new rayman game!

And hey, where is Wii u version of valiant heart?



well they could always aim for parity with 3 consoles 720p 30fps lol.
