You can go a head and miss out on some good Ubi games if you like, and all the power to you, but would it not be smarter to simply buy the good Ubi games and not the bad one?

Money speaks, so if good games sell, then they'll continue to make the good games, unfortunately the same is true for bad games that sell well, so in reality the only thing you should do is boycott the bad games, while enjoying the good one.
What good ones? We are talking about boycotting their wii games. There are no good ubisoft games for the wii.

 


How about No More Heroes and Rayman Raving Rabbids, these two are 'good' wii games from Ubisoft

No more heroes wasn't developed by ubisoft. It was published in the U.S by them. RRR is decent, but nothing amazing and they seemed to quit on the sequel( horrible sequel).

UPDATED THE OPENING POST.COPY AND PASTE THIS EMAIL TO ALL TEH GAMING SITES.

Apparently Ubisoft has decided to employ viral marketers for damage control after this Wii fiasco.
 
On VGChartz one appeared with thw profile:merkh66
 
His first post was promoting Ubisoft's FarCry2 as seen here:
 
Soon after he decided to go to a Nintendo discussion thread speaking out on Ubisoft's latest fiasco in this thread:
 
What occured next was a futile attempt at trolling the Wii and eventually got in a war of words with poster Bored4life.
At page 8 however everything just fell apart because we now realized that Bored4life strung him all along as seen here.
 
Please go down to the part where Bored4life goes into detail on how to expose a viral marketer and explains how he did it.I think everyone needs to know about this new fiasco as well as quote Bored4life statements where he exposes him here:Brilliant!
After he ran he then went on to promote Ubisoft's Endwars in another thread here:
 
 
I think this is a lesson that needs to be learnt.
Why do Ubisoft insist on this crap?


Prediction:
Disney will make KH3 with Nintendo.Yes,KH3 will be a Disney/Nintendo crossover.

Save the industry,Kill a Hardcore gamer

Stopped buying Ubisoft games.Will not buy Red Steel 2.Let them struggle on HD. Click here for a solution:CLICK
ALERT: I have also exposed a UBI'Z'OFT viral marketer in THIS thread.Read my posts, see the set up and watch how everything crumbles on page 8. Please learn from this experience.

I don't get why everyone is so pissed off at ubi. they made tons from AC, and they have been making a lot of money on PS60 with RSV, RSV 2, GRAW, GRAW 2, all of them have sold over 1m (I think 2m with most) so it makes sense that they continue selling to these users. The blazing angels games did not sell that well, so they have chaged that studios role, and now they are making Tom Clancy games, ubi's premier brand. What do you associate TC games with, great graphics, and silly technology (sillyish). The are meant to be very immersive and quite realistic games, which are far more suited to the HD consoles, which is why the TC love is going to PS360
With PoP I would guess that you will get the people who bought AC getting this, and since AC sold like 7m there is quite a large market for this game, so PS360 is the obvious place to go
What I don't get is why Wii owners get so pissed off with Ubi for making games for the PS360. They have made a lot of money there, and they are making a decision that they want their big budget games for PS360, because they are selling well there, and their casual games for the Wii, because they are selling well there
I admit those screens of SWS looked crap, but let's wait and see what it looks like when it is released

I think you missed the point. You really should look up exactly what happened. 



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

@ lord the night knight, the best games on Wii are made by Nintendo and very few other developers have made great games for the system, but... many crap games have sold well (Carnival games) and so it makes little sense for Ubi to make bigger budget wii games, when they can make tons out of shovelware, they are afterall, in the business to make money, and that is what they want to do. With PS360, it is mostly the big budget games that sell well, as shown by Assassins Creed, and their big budget games have made money, so this balance does suit them well

And he said look into it more. You are missing the point.

I own all consoles but I will support the boycott. I'll make sure no one in my household buys Ubisoft games on any platform, but the best way to get Ubisoft to change their attitude is to buy 3rd party games for the Wii that deserve commercial success.
