But... why? The Wii U is getting big system sellers in the future. Why walk away when the system is gonna start selling really well in the future?

I own a Wii U and 3DS. I also own a PS4!

How else am I supposed to buy physical copies "AAA" games for around $29.99 3 months after they launch? Even Ubisoft thinks there games are not very valuable.

And people wonder why third-party developers have no interest in making games on Nintendo platforms. A major third-party developer who has shown strong support for a console pulls out, and fans are cheering?

What, are you also going to cheer when Activison pulls out as well? Then that will just leave Sega and Tecmo to help fill the massive game droughts that will likely happen.

How can Ubisoft leaving be a good thing? Even if you dislike their games, they still showed support to the Wii U. Now, this gives other third parties even less incentive to support the Wii U. And no, indies are not the magic answer either, especially since Sony is also making a huge push for them as well.

A major third-party developer walking away is a bad thing, especially since Ubisoft did try to show support to the Wii U.

This. Ubisoft leaving is not a good thing no matter how you put it. However I am not surprised they are considering the awful sales and support they are getting from the install base. What goes around comes around.

I have a gut feeling that they'll probably try again after Watch_Dogs. That game is supposed to release pretty soon on other platforns, but their "natural" release schedule for Wii U has already been pushed back until the Wii U version releases, if that makes any sense.

I don't think Ubisoft is gone for good. If Wii u sales skyrocket after MK8, and don't fall back down to the levels they are at right now, Ubisoft will get smart fast. Unlike EA, Ubisoft is an intelligent company.

I was just trying to point out, that Watch_Dogs was delayed for Wii U. It wouldn't make sense to release or announce any games, when one that was supposed to be out last year isn't even out, and won't be until the end of the year.

EDIT: Mario Kart 8 and such should help, too.

In otherwords, they need to finish Watch_Dogs and move forward from there.

That's what I thought as well. Just Dance tends to sell pretty well on Nintendo systems.

And would Ubisoft care to explain this?

This is what makes me kind of hope that the Ubisoft guy was misquoted. Saying they won't have any Nintendo titles before their presentation doesn't sound like a good business move.

Major 1st party games aren't a reason for publishers to support Nintendo's hardware.

Four more months until Bayonetta 2.

I'm sorry guys but for once i have to agree with the most random cat of em all...unrandom sam. Ubisoft hasn't done what they need to do so why should we support them? Damn...did i just say that? lol

As sad as it is I can't say I'm really surprised but the lack of 3DS support from ALL western 3rd party studios is beyond me. EA said they would support the Wii U when the install base made sense but the last thing they made for the 3DS was a crappy port of FIFA 14, seeing as they can only manage sequels how about a sodding sequel to Henry Hatsworth you Drong-bats!! And what about the other's, the only ones who I could say are atleast trying on the 3DS are WB but the last Batman game was a bit divisive.... Sod it, looks like i'm going to have to fork out for a PS4 just so I can get the new Star Wars Battlefront and enjoy the crappy and buggy servers that EA love to provide (atleast the new Batman looks good)

If they wont even show watchdogs for wiiu im guessing its cancelled. 3rd party and Nintendo are over. Dont expect them to come back even for Nintendos next system. Time for Nintendo to start buying up some companies....im looking at you Platinum Games and Grasshopper Manufacture.

It sucks to see Nintendo become more and more irrelevant in the home console arena.
