There are so many things wrong in that "revelation" that's not even funny.

What do you think is "wrong"?



First the source, 4Chan is not a reliable source.

Then there's the mention that they got NX dev kits in October 2015. We already discussed that leak in the past and Tachi proved it wrong by talking with other japanese devs who didn't received those dev kits.

Third is that Bucarest is only a studio, they aren't informed by Nintendo of When they will launch their consoles. Nintendo talks with Ubisoft and Ubisoft tells them when do they have to get their game done.

And last, they are owned by Ubisoft and it's Ubi who tells them what to do and for what platform. They have no real choice.

I have no idea if it's real or not. But if it's true, I don't know if a port of Liberation is a good idea. Assassins Creed didn't sell spectacularly on the WiiU, and Liberation is not precisely the flagship game of the franchise.

Nintendo already got the flagship AC imo ( no pun intended) ACIV blackflag!



Jokes aside, if this is true, Ubisoft has no faith on the NX. They put AC3 and AC blackflag on the U, and for the NX just Liberation?

Then again, this sounds like a very fake leak, the only thing it's sounds legit its Ubi porting a Vita game to the NX. I suspect we'll see a lot of those in the future.





You know it deserves the GOTY.

The rumor says that Ubisoft only recieved dev kits for the handheld. Maybe the Japanese developers got them too, but no dev kits for the home console.

That's why they only know "late 2016" and "2017" for them. Nobody would start developing a game if he doesn't know when the platform is launching probably.

Yeah, they don't have a choice, but they can say what they want to do and when Ubisoft agrees then they can start, if they deny then they have to develop something else.

I don't see a real problem in your points.

Again, the rumor says they are porting it to the portable NX, not the home console. We don't know what they are making for the home console.

The rumors that were put in question were for "NX dev kits", not "NX home console dev kits". It's the article and you who are making the distinction between them to give your arguments some ground.

 

But it's clear that you believe it while I don't. You won't make me change and I doubt I'll be able to make the same with you.

LOL Bucharest. Sure, I'm sure the Konami Dev in Endor can prove this too. People just making up names of places these days. FTL!

Spoiler alert:
Had to do it, I know Bucharest is a real place. ;) Personally I'm amazed Nintendo is even letting Ubi develop for them, after Ubi pretty much bailing on the Wii U.

Are there even Ubisoft studios in Bucharest ???



What? Devs releasing more info than Nintendo themselves? Nah, no way.

Hahahahaha if this is real they are starting pretty bad...

What? Why? Ubisoft making 3 Games for the portable device that are probably launch titles would be amazing!



Because they are killing the machine that gives them profits and leaving another year the one that it's dead with no library announced.

On top of that, killing the neat speculated concept behind the NX: shared OS and library (majority). Releasing one apart of the other kills any hype.

yes there is. And they have worked on a lot of games. Though over the last 10 years not so much their full games by themselves but side work and porting. 

Yep I already googled it, damn Ubisoft shurely has some shady buisness going down to have such a big team (800 employees) in Romania of all places...

Don't get me wrong, I'm not blaming Romania, but it's facts in the public domain that they have kinda bad labor rights with extremely low salaries and few insurances... In the end Ubisoft has already gone through various scandals due to how they treat their employees
