Forums - Nintendo Discussion - If you really want to protest Ubisoft

Non Sequor said:
Does Ubisoft even have any developers in France any more? I'm not sure that the people at the Montreuil-sous-Bois headquarters do anything other than count the money their studios abroad generate.

 There are still devs in France but maybe he better sended it to the department in Canada or the one in USA.


And they added a new entry on Wikipedia about Ubisoft:


Recently, after the unwrapping of titles like Prince of Persia (2008) and Beyond Good & Evil 2 at Ubidays 2008 for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, the company has been flamed by members in the Ubisoft official forums for not supporting the successful Wii console. [12] A growing belief is that the company is developing casual games such as Petz, on the Wii in order to fund expensive HD games. In fact Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot even admitted that "the company's casual games business was "extremely profitable" and helped to finance the initially costly development of games for next-generation consoles"[13] Many have started to figure that "next generation consoles" may not include the Wii. Guillemot's promise of "Nintendo-Like" quality games has not been realized and in fact, there is only one release for the console that is scheduled to come out in 2008.[14] Even Beyond Good & Evil 2, whose predecessor suffered from poor sales and sold more on Wii's predecessor the Gamecube, was chosen to be developed on HD consoles despite higher development costs and the uncertainty of the game's commercial reception. Countless believe that the company will continue to make "extremely profitable" casual games on the system and toned down spinoffs such as Shaun White Snowboarding[15] (with features like free roaming and online mode absent), while the other consoles will get full-fledged games, despite the Wii being the sales leader of its generation.

I personally also challenge all the Nintendo fans (as well as everybody else) to match this... People in certain parts of the world need help, please give generously

Do you really need a reason like this to donate to charity? If you actually cared about people in the world who need help, you wouldn't need to get proof of anything from anyone, you'd just send the money to red cross, because you care about them, and not your own pride

 Do I need a reason to give money? No?

Does Red Cross need to "promote" Quack in China or other disaster to get people to donate? No

Do charities need to show sad images to get people to sponsor a child? No

 

but the end result is the same, As long as money goes to charity, that's all that matters.

 

 

How about be the first to donate? heck, with all that, I see no reason for you to NOT match it, right?

Um, is there a glitch?



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

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

And he couldn't have enjoyed this?  Please save your self-rightous bullshit for someone else.  You've most likely spent thousands of dollars in your life on products that you didn't need and provided nothing but minor and temporary sources of entertainment.  

Charities are great, but donate on your own time with your own money.  Don't keep trying to guilt everyone in this topic with your crap. 

Edit: Wow, what happened with that last reply?



Naz broke the thread >.>
