This thread is like a bizarre comedy skit where everyone is surprised by the obvious.

Hmmm, that ain't a half bad idea for a play; Ubisoft, Rayman, and the series of overdramatized events.

Tragicomedy indeed.

Yep. The lead of the team standing with a protest banner does change things, no? I don't see how Ubisoft could quietly ignore that.

Good for Ancel for not wanting his projects to fail again because of when they're released.

It'll be funny when the game doesn't sell at all thanks to being released the same month as GTA V (this will happen btw, remember Blur? No? Exactly)

Advertising or not, it's still a big risk. Yes, you save money, but at what cost? They have the perfect window of opportunity to release it with little to no competition, and they still choose to delay it anyway.

This may be be the greatest marketing campaign in video game history. Minimum advertising dollars spent but everybody who is remotely interested in video games now knows who Rayman is. Legends is going to smash the 2 million mark set by Origins.

How horribly cynical if true, but it would demonstrate that Wii U owners are more committed to traditional games from third parties than Wii owners were. That could be marketing data worth a public flogging!

He's on to something actually. PR is well aware of the truism that all publicity is good publicity.

What better way to sell to PS3/ Xbox fanboys than piss off the Nintendo ones?

The question is: at what point is it too late for Ubisoft to change their minds? I don't know how long it takes to press discs and all that, but given it was only a few weeks from publication when they dropped the bomb, if this is a last-minute decision wouldn't that mean that media was already printed and packaged? How long before a game ships is it actually in boxes and ready for delivery to the shops?

As long has it has taken them to even reply (which they haven't yet) I don't think they would be capable of pulling off a release in March.

How about a direct to eshop for now and a full retail in September. It might be a compromise they are willing to do! Or capable of doing.

Yes, marketing 101, "no such thing as bad publicity". Plus they are still going to get sympathy sales from Nintendo fans from yesterday's "protest" and the 6 months of barely seeing the family forum post from the developer. An interesting marketing case study nevertheless.

I hope there will be more levels like Castle Rock. That is by far my favorite level in the Demo.

People keep saying the Xbox One doesn't have Backwards Compatibility.
I don't think they know what Backwards Compatibility means...

Pretty sure they're the "chest levels" of Legends.
We already know of two of them...so yeah. That's my guess.

I'm not sayi that Ubi made the wrong descision delaying the game since I know pretty much nothing other than that the game wasn't delayed due to development, but I really, really feel for the devs. I can only imagine how disheartening it would be to be pushed like that.
