Yeah! That'll show 'em!
...what will it show them?
For what it's worth, I was in the 'probably not cancelled' camp
It will show them what assuming makes.

Would love a confirmation on this, end of Feb is very soon and I would need to make money appear for itIt wasn't cancelled.
The italian store cancelled the preorders because the release date was changed.
The mess is sorted out now.
Which also makes much more sense. Same goes for the metric system.

Not that I'm saying that this isn't what happened -- after all, I obviously have no idea about what's going on -- but why would changing a release date result in cancelling preorders?
I'd also say, why would UbiSoft deny comment if it hasn't been cancelled?
well, to be honest. regardless if the game is canceled or not. i think nintendo should pull the plug on the WIIU by the end of this year. i mean, i think its much better option if they release a console with PS4.5 in terms of specs. if they want to have a chance as this system is going to win anything
aside from 3 or 4 games nintendo are making and probably won't sell due to the low installed base on the WIIU, there is nothing left for the system.
its kinda sad because i do kinda like the WII U. and it has like 3 games i already want to play. but i will not buy the system at this price. WII U to me is like PS3 and Xbox 360.
to me those systems are worth about 180$ to 200$ max. WIIU isn't different.
i hope its not canned for the WIIU only owners though.
That would piss me off a lot. I bought this console for Zelda and if they move Zelda to the next console then I will never buy anything from Nintendo again.
It could have possibly been re-skued, resulting in the cancellation of whatever sku number that existed in their POS system.Not that I'm saying that this isn't what happened -- after all, I obviously have no idea about what's going on -- but why would changing a release date result in cancelling preorders?
That's... odd... One could read that as an unofficial confirmation.
I agree, but I actually like that the rest of the world uses a logical progression from smallest to largest... so, to reconcile these otherwise contradictory things I like, I tend to do year/month/day, personally - largest to smallest.As a European immigrant to the US since the late 90s, I find the date system is actually much better starting with the month. I can take a quick look at a date and know immediately from the first set of digits which period of the year it applies to, that's more important than which day of a month. Also doesn't UK set months first.

Ah Ubisoft could have put a end to this they did not,that's the problem.I don't know... it can be something as simple as a employee's mistake about how to handle the preorders on a computer or something...
what really gets my attention is that when the preorders were cancelled... EVERY major videogame news site wrote an article about it based on assumptions, with no clarification of Ubisoft people.
and now that the preorders are restored, nobody will make a story about it.
gotta keep those clickbaits up.

And the ride continues. Just another month.
Wait, in the pyramids, why is the month section larger than the day section?

Just what kind of pending announcement from either Nintendo or Ubisoft could prevent Ubi from confirming that the game hasn't been cancelled? Whilst the game returning to the Gamestop site is good news for those looking forward to the Wii U version, don't be too sure just yet as you're setting yourself up for disappointment if it has indeed been cancelled.The only thing I could imagine would be because of a pending announcement either from uni or nintendo

Said pending announcement could just as we'll be that it is cancelled. All publicly traded corporations have to be extremely careful with any comment they make as it can affect stock prices. No comment is standard operating procedure until there is an announcement.Just what kind of pending announcement from either Nintendo or Ubisoft could prevent Ubi from confirming that the game hasn't been cancelled?

Everyone wouldn't have put those articles IF ubisoft was communicating "something"
The best answer we've got is "no comment"
I figured it out.
It was probably cancelled, then they saw how popular this topic was, then uncancelled it.

that's also a common journalistic lingo for "we send a mail to the source, but he didn't answer during the 5 minutes it took me to write the story".
CVG said:"We have nothing to comment at the moment," a Ubisoft spokesperson replied.
It wasn't cancelled.

Hah. You joke, but I bet this thread actually does have more views than Watch_Dogs would/will sell on Wii U. (~69k at this moment)
I don't think this signals that Ubi is dropping all support for the Wii U... but it does make sense that their most ambitious game to date would be hard to justify on a console that wouldn't move more than 25k units.
You'll still see Ubi games on the Wii U, just smaller scope ones.
You'll see Just Dance for sure and maybe smaller downloadable titles hitting almost all other platforms. Their major franchises like Assassin's Creed, Watch_Dogs and all the games in the Tom Clancy universe will skip Wii U.
Maybe a potential Rayman sequel? Who knows. But the big budget titles from Ubi just aren't viable on the Wii U right now.
I've never heard of this happening before. Why wouldn't they just notify consumers about the delay then? Why cancel preorders all of the sudden?
C'mon, son. You really ought to look this sort of thing up if you're going to take a pop at others for not doing their research diligently.
Ubisoft and Nintendo are pretty close.
Maybe Nintendo let Ubisoft know that Wii U will be removed from the market in Europe this year?
Seems like a surefire disaster for consumer confidence if Nintendo actually pulled the Wii U from the market.

Now back on topic, I think this whole rumor is a big load of B.S.
I had a gamestop employee tell me, after it was already available mind you, that COD Ghost was not going to be released on Wii U. I didn't write a blog about it.
I'm baffled how so many people seem to bask and rejoice in a destructive attitude towards anything Wii U in general.
Maybe there is a rebranding process taking place?

Ahh that explains it.Guessing it's because days are shorter.
This however, does not. See, I was thinking the smaller set of numbers would have the smaller section, like this....Can't tell if serious or American?
Potentially 1-12/1-31/0-????
