And killed both thq and junction point
Actually, that is kind of disturbing. It is like those companies were cursed for going multi-platform from the Wii.
Well.. that is not cool at all.

I'd like to follow you on Miiverse, same user name?
by the way... if Wii U is so weak then why does it take 7 months to port one of its games to the "HD twins"?
Won't buy. And will avoid any Ubisoft games in the future on any platform. Sorry for the devs, but their bosses won't take my money.

"I know it's not an elaborate, 'convincing' answer, but it's the simple truth."
In response, Irvin added: "We usually release all of our platforms simultaneously (aside from PC). We've made special exception sometimes in the past but it's definitely just on a case by case basis and not our standard practice.
"In this case, Ubisoft recently decided they wanted to release the game on multiple platforms so the decision was made to launch them all at the same time rather than separately.

You say this. Personally I find your posts very interesting, if Rich allows me.Lemme guess, this is the equivalent of "What's your gamertag, because I believe you're full of shit and you don't actually own a Wii U." Am I close? And no, it's not Baconsammy.
This rule does not apply to nintendo consoles
Weren't people pretty pissed about that? The even worse part is no widescreen for no apparent reason.
Wait, what do the PS3 and 360 have to do with this?
Either way, I had the game pre-ordered, but canceled it this morning. No point in bothering. I they don't want my money, I'll give it to someone else.
I just think it's shocking that Nintendo didn't throw any resources at this game to keep it exclusive. It's a cornerstone of their launch window and they've just let it go without a fight.
Those games where in the 1st party Nintendo Direct.Poor Kamiya, he's been asked a lot today (in English and Japanese) if TW101 or Bayonetta 2 is going to go multiplatform. He keeps reminding them it's up to the publisher...which is Nintendo.
So, I think we're safe.

Behind the scenes, MS and Sony may have given Ubi an incentive to port it. Who knows?I just think it's shocking that Nintendo didn't throw any resources at this game to keep it exclusive. It's a cornerstone of their launch window and they've just let it go without a fight.
Pretty sure Assassin's Creed 3 released earlier on the PS3/360 than it did on the WiiU.Well there you go.

I'm defending the one third party that has shown an interest in a console I bought at launch, and was the only prominent third party to release an exclusive title alongside that launch, yes. Not because I own shares in their company. But because I possess an interest in the Wii U succeeding. "Fuck you, you greedy fucking assholes." isn't how I show that support.
Why not give Ubisoft some credit for realizing their mistake?

You're like those guys on Vita threads posting "lol Vita sux, it has no gamez, vita is dead! oh oh! but don't misinterpret me, I love the Vita."
Iwata's preparing another apology/seppuku for the next Nintendo Direct.
for Rayman Legends? lol

Yeah, that tends to happen when one of the consoles hasn't been released yet.
Imagine if the game came out in feb as planned, then a PS360 version came out in September with added content or online co-op not found in the wiiU version? People here would lose their minds. 'I already bought this in February! How dare they release that version when they knew a better version was coming?" Etc etc etc.
Gamers are never happy. News at 11:00.
Just about everyone who was going to get it will still buy it in September. They're just mad now and believe they won't.
Iwata wants profit and as good as the game is; Rayman Origins was not a big seller.
They promoted it heavily. I hope they will never ever work with this gaijins from Ubisoft again.

How have they promoted it heavily?
The Vita doesn't "sux" and it has plenty of games that interest me. I like the Vita very much, thank you.
Not sure what that has to do with anything...
Read again.
Yet they throw money after Bayonetta 2? And Wonderful 101?
How have they promoted it heavily?
It was always getting ported. The real problem is Wii U is performing under expectations and, without a Nintendo subsidy, there's no point launching and promoting the Wii U SKU separately without a decent install base.

Ubisoft claims that when possible they release games across platforms at the same time. You said, "But AC3 came out on Wii U later." I pointed out that happened due to the Wii U not being available at the time of AC3's launch, thus it couldn't possibly be released at the same time as the PS3 and 360 versions. Where's the confusion?
No, trust me, I read your idiotic trollbait. I responded appropriately.

So their mistake was to promote the game as an exclusive even though they knew from the beginning it would be ported later on. Maybe they should have developed it as a multi-plat game since the beginning and release it on time, and not send it to die in september.Ubisoft claims that when possible they release games across platforms at the same time.

Um, why not hold the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions back and release it when the Wii U version was ready?

You actually don't find my posts interesting. You said as much last week and then said you put me on ignore. So you can understand my suspicion. I'll happily give you my NNID via PM if you need it, but I haven't posted on Miiverse since early December. Pretty much the last time I had it plugged in. I'd have to plug it back in and switch the connections from my Apple TV just to find out what my NNID is.
