“With Assassin’s Creed III, we were involved on the Wii U version. The Wii U was kind of the pioneer of the connected tablet interface. This gave us some ideas for the first iteration of tablets connected with console games.”

 

“Unfortunately, while the Wii U was the beginning, Ubisoft Quebec’s current focus is creating a cohesive experience between the Xbox One/PlayStation 4 and mobile devices. The studio is not committed to bringing some of these new experiences to the Wii U platform.”

 

“It’s not confirmed yet, but if it’s possible to do it and it makes sense, yes we will provide some kind of experience on the Wii U. Our focus is on the new generation of Microsoft and Sony consoles.”

 

Dafuq Ubisoft?

Don't hate their business decisions because it's not in accordance to your own wishes.

Some kind of experience on the Wii U = Petz series & other shovelware.

I kinda figured this would happen.

This topic is so misleading.

 

The article is about Ubisoft currently focusing second-screen gaming in XBONE/PS4.

So how did you conclude that Ubisoft was focusing all their effort on XBONE/PS4 and abandoning the Wii U?

Sounds like Wii U might get downports, like we all expected.

Not surprised, I already saw that coming, Sega's gonna do the same once this deal is over.

R.I.P. third party support on Wii U...

[itsdavebaby]

I'll say this, if they would have given us rayman hey would have seen how big the support/install base was. Yet they still could have given it to us and then a later date for the ps3 and xbox one's. I see tha as their fault. Whatever

This is the second bs thread ive seen from you on the first page.

Quit posting bs thread titles, quit spreading misinformation.

For anyone who sees the thread title and has an absolute failure in the ability to read and think for themselves:

THE ARTICLE IS SPECIFICALLY ABOUT THE UBISOFT QUEBEC DEV TEAM AND TABLET COMPANION APPS, NOT UBISOFT THE COMPANY.

Ubi Quebec is experienced in second screen work and has, as such, been chosen to lead in the design if second screen functionality for other platforms, where their main focus is now.

Their main focus is on xbone/ps4 and tablet integration/companion apps. A lot of that doesnt make sense for wii u, because the gamepad is a controller and not a portable tablet. So who would want a companion app to play when away from the game... When you dont take the gamepad away from the game?
