Huh, I didn't even know you could hunt whales in ACIV before now...
Really couldn't care less about it.

So thats what the update I got like, 4 hours ago, was.

Concept art?

I don't believe I've heard of this before now.

That kid sounded like an old man, in his 60-70s or something...

I might try it, I hate the american name though. ^{(It just sounds werid to say, y'know?)}

Yes, I totally love the new directon they're taking, it looks so cool now.

/Sarcasm mode; end. Oh yeah, and what @XCWarrior said, I quite like these interviews.

No thanks, I like being an anti-social nerd.

@chewytapeworm Yes you do, it really beats out all other names.

@SpecialHam Wouldn't you have had to chosen to download the song illegally in the first place to bear the penalty of a crime?

I'm happy about this, it would be even better if it meant connection to aussies too.
@AlexSora89 High five. ^{(TV Tropes is awesome.)}

@Rapadash6 There actually have been times the PS3 sold less than that, and the Xbox 360 hasn't sold that many units in Japan for a long time, the PS3 is doing just fine and I don't remember the anyone thinking the Xbox 360 was in a pickle either.

I don't like the art too much, if it was for the 3DS I might be more interested, but I'll still wait to see how it turns out.

I can't wait to run around the city and find alllllllllllllllllllllllllllll the secrets!

I'm surprised the Vita only sold that many.

@uel They release it as they make it, would you rather wait a year to be able to play any of it?
Ontop of that, there are 25 DLC 'episodes,' 7 have been released in 3 weeks, ^{( I assume it will be 9 in 4 weeks.)} if they continue at that rate it will be about 3 months ^{(If they don't put in a long pause between the release of the first set and second set.)} you have to wait if you really have to have all the DLC.

@LordessMeep Yeah, pretty much the only DLC that really tells more about the story are the 3 Future of Dispare (As they were called in Japan.) levels, the rest are hardly related to the main story, even then you could just find out on the internet if you don't want to pay for it.

@FOURSIDE_BOY For those children containing paralogue chapters, I would recommend you to use premoted units, for most of them, that is.

Also, yes, sheesh, it's five chapters including the prologue (Six if you really want to include the premotion.) you have to play through, it's not that much, it could be done in an hour or two, it's not like you would be able to play any of the DLC at the start of the game anyways, your units are probably too weak at that point to even take on the easiest of them. (Except possibly Frederick.)

I only have one problem with this game, it comes out the same day as Monster Hunter 3: Ultimate with Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon a week later, I don't know where I'll find enough time to play all of them.

Do we get Ryu in a tutu?

Beyond Good & Evil 2 is coming?

@RetroGBHippie92 Also, Awakening has a Casual mode that you can chose to play with so that your units come back after you beat the chapter if they die.

I know I'll be buying a few, like the DLC for the Bride, Dread Fighter, and Limit Breaker Manuel.

@rjejr except Nintendo didn't say they would sell that many, as the article stated many times, those numbers were just projections and estimates, not factual knowledge and complete guarantees about the subject... Although I don't see what the rest of the stuff you were talking about relates to the question I was asking @Waltz.

@Bankai Obviously there are things never revealed to the public, a projection isn't a promise, though, it's an educated guess, and thus shouldn't be trusted wholeheartedly, it's Ubisoft's choice on wether they want to support a new console as much as they did, but it's a risk Ubisoft decided to take, like with any business venture.
The Wii U also has a month left to get to 4 million consoles sold, so they may be unhappy now, but it still has a large amount of game releases to change that number, So... They probably wouldn't change these complaints at all, as those numbers wouldn't be that great anyways, but it's not like they were unexpected.

I don't see a reason to discuss this further either, as there are other things I find far more entertaining which I would rather do.

You wouldn't mind sharing what those promises Nintendo made to "third parties" are, would you?
Because I don't remember hearing Nintendo promise to sell X amount of consoles.

Ubisoft doesn't believe in a game being able to sell a console, does it?

I was slightly impressed by it, but I'll have to see some first party titles that I'm interested in before I buy one.

So, I'm guessing 2016 for the rest of the world? If that's the case it might even beat Kidd Tripp's release...

@SCAR392 I'm pretty sure he just said he wasn't interested, not bashing it or anything, I don't know where you got that from, unless you're talking about the comments on this article in general.

I'm also willing to bet Ubisoft will give us the game.
A straight port of the 360/PS3 version 8 months after they come out.

The Wii U has probably around half the life time sales in Japan that the 360 does.
What do you have to say about that?

It doesn't really have many games coming out now, or untill march, it's not too surprising that sales are low currently.

I quite liked the first one, I see myself buying this one as well.

I think Philip should write things like this more than a few times a year.

I'm happy about this.

While my wallet shivers in the corner.

Only got 4 hours of sleep.
Totally. Worth it.

@Aviator because the 3DS didn't have the option, duuuuuuuh.
That didn't stop @WaveBoy from complaining about it, though.
They had a better use for the stylus anyways... Inventory management. ^{(at least IIRC.)} Awwwww yeeeeaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh.

Argh! Ninja'd. >:[

I'm honestly too busy playing Fire Emblem: Awakening (75 hours and counting.) to care wether they announce anything cool or not.

I wasn't planning on buying it in the first place, actually, because I'm not 17 yet.

Who's Clive Moody?

@Gamesake I would hope they do, I also think that if they do, NOA will change the name to Binding Blade, because, in Awakening, a character you can get, Owain, in some of his supports, he shouts the name of different games(His 'special moves') I've seen him mention Radiant Dawn, Sacred Stones, Blazing Sword and Binding Blade so far, I imagine they were talking about Fuuin no Tsurugi, or it might not mean anything.

@Bliquid Weeeeeell, if VG charts is anything to go by, the 3DS has around 8.75 million sales in North America, and around 7.48 million in europe, compared to the 10.45 million or so in Japan, it's not too bad.

Terrible move by Nintendo, it's not like it can't be changed, though, but it doesn't really bother me eitherway, as I can't think of the last system videogame system I had that broke... Or got rid of in any way.

That's pretty much all I would have said about this.

Man, it must be confusing to have all those wires out of the back of your TV.

This is hardly a deal breaker for me, sure there are some users on here across the seas I would like to play with, but I have plenty of friends in the U.S.

Only Fire Emblem: Awakening, nothing else is worthy of my time.

Which games do Ubisoft have coming? Besides Rayman Legends in 7 months I don't see anything coming for Wii U.
@Vletrmx Just wait, you'll have to sell your wallet to pay for it.

I may have to get this sometime.

My, lots of people are unhappy about this...
@Ant, or anyone that knows, what is the most comments on an article, and which article is it? I imagine it'll be this one eventually.

@Knux, Yeah... And this article has only been out for 3 hours.

I haven't played a Mystery Dungeon game before, but I think I'll try this one out.

@MrSRArter Except Nintendo funded Bayonetta 2.
