Mediocre game released 6 months late, after the hype train had been decommissioned and sold as scrap. And right before Smash.
There was no way this was ever going to sell well.


Spare me. I played it. Its fare from mediocre. Nintendo consumerist habits have been trained not to buy shit third party from Nintendo or buy it elsewhere. Its not a logical pool for anyone who is a fan of third party. Ubisoft should cut the chord.

Wii U version = 60$

Ps4 version on black friday = 19$

Welp, it really isn't that surprising at all... Why would anyone buy essentially the "slightly better version of the last gen game" 6 months later when a) There are next gen versions available b) Anyone that wanted to get it would have gotten it already! Sure, there are some here and there but overall, it was truely doomed to fail but of course Ubisoft will not blame it on the late release, instead, they will blame it on other nonsense.

At least on the bright side, the wiiU will have one less whiner


There is no next gen version of the game. Its a cross platform title. Its not pushing anything but last gen platforms.

Umm... I am pretty sure Watch_Dogs on the ps4 looks better than Watch_Dogs on the ps3/360 with things like Higher Textures, Better Lighting, More AA and etc

And my point was that, I doubt anyone is going to buy the wiiU version cause it looks a lot closer to the ps3/360 version when the ps4/x1 versions look so much better, specially 6 months after the release

Yup this was expected especially in the UK where the Wii U is so unpopular.

When the game still wasn't delayed.



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.
