Nintendo really doesn't need Ubi right now nor does Ubi need Nintendo. What I see Nintendo doing is making new IPs to combat all the 3rd party hoopla and I think it'll actually work though! I've had my doubts but Nintendo is a company that makes games and they're good at it, don't you think? For anyone, open to any fanboy, who loves telling a certain company what to do... go get a degree in script writing, 3D Modeling, programming, business or something and THEN you can tell them what to do. I am hopeful for Nintendo and Miyamoto and Reggie's recent rage can only be a good sign that better games are coming.

Thank god people is starting to realize this is a bad company.



Nintendo fans loved Ubisoft last gen. They couldn't get enough Just Dance!

Anyhow, I'll keep playing Ubisoft games. But I hope all this interweb whining encourages Ubisoft to polish their games a little more.

Nah, I'll continue to buy Ubisoft regardless.

The only two modern Ubisoft game that I liked were Rayman Legends and Rayman Origins. What they did with Legends weeks before the Wii U release pissed me off, but Legends was too good to not play.

I purchased a copy of Assassins Creed III for the Wii U at launch only to be treated to a badly optimized experience; Ubisoft stated that they would fix all of the graphical and framerate problems in IV which ended up being a lie, as IV still suffer from FPS problems.

I was displeased with the way Watch_Dogs was handled in general; the broken promise of the game running in 1080p at 60 FPS on PS4, the delays with Wii U and selling the final version with no DLC and few gamepad features at full price, locking the framerate at 30 FPS on PC just have parity with the consoles and having insane hardware requirements despite looking and more importantly performing worse than games that have similar or in many cases lower requirements.

Their most recent lie about Unity running at 30 FPS on capable next-gen consoles for cinematic purposes (When we all know it is due to their terrible game engine) does not inspire confidence either.

And the less said about the full price ports of 99 cent smartphone games to 3DS the better.

I pretty much do not purchase things from Ubisoft and EA anymore. I am not going to fully boycott them, but I am not going to support them unless they really (really) wow me.

I will say I hate this practice, but I do think its a bit early to call Ubisoft the next EA... They released one glitched out game with micro transactions, but I feel that shouldn't weigh them down. we've had Child of light, Valiant hearts, and Raymond legends. watch dogs was a disappointment for sure, but i don't think we should completely give up on Ubisoft yet...

What sealed the deal to me is the fact they are constantly using false marketing (their games never look like they do on trailers) and holding reviews like a bunch of cowards.

I don't even care about metacritic when i am going to buy a game, but the fact they have no trust on their work also troubles me a lot.



"Nintendo fans be glad (insert almost any developer) has abandoned you". Great attitude that.

I'll keep playing their best games as well and look forward to Far Cry 4, The Division and RS Siege all of which seem promising.

There's so much whining right up until their next great E3.. :S

 

Assassin's Creed Unity may be buggy as hell right now but people really ought to know that games with annual releases are often not good until at least 1 month after launch. Just don't buy them or wait til they've been patched.

Some Wii U owners need to stop with the "Ubisoft/random 3rd party dev is evil and is conspiring against Nintendo". Some of the games I'm enjoying the most on my Wii U are indeed Ubisoft's.

 

If a publisher estimates that a Wii U release of their game will be profitable they'll make it.

With the exception of EA and Take 2 I think that western 3rd parties provided strong support for the Wii U for a long time and if enough Wii U owners bought their games and made them profitable they would continue doing so.

I'm done with Ubisoft. I've purchased and enjoyed every main series AC game from I-IV, and I bought both Rayman games, but after seeing the overhyped averageness that was Watch Dogs to the shit they've pulled with AC: Unity from day one review embargoes to companion app requiring treasure chests (ignoring the shit they pulled with Nintendo), I can say there are other games that deserve my money now.

I was planning on AC: Unity being my second game for my new Xbox One I'll be getting soon (after Halo: MCC, of course), but after reading all of this, I think EA will be getting my money with Dragon Age. Sorry Ubi.
