Is there any wiiu gameplay footage out there? How much of a difference do you think there will be between the two? I pre ordered it on WiiU cause I really want Nintendo to be successful and gain more third party support. I for sure will be buying a PS4 for sure. No Xbox1

The visuals should be the same.

But there will be more scripted things going on in the background on ps4.

Watch dogs isn't a graphical tour de force or anything but it is a nice looking game.

The only reason there would be a difference in visuals is if the wii u is artificially limited.

The gpu is capable of plenty more than watch dogs aims for. The ram bandwidth far exceeds anything in the scope of watch dogs. And the CPU is capable of tying it all together.

Time will tell how the wii u version makes it through the various political stages of development.

i don't think there will be much of a difference between the two versions. Remember that Watch Dogs is also coming out on PS3. I doubt there is even going to be a major difference between the PS3 and PS4 versions.

 

I do think that Watch Dogs on the WIiU will be one of the best if not best version available. Since the game revolves a lot around your smartphone hacking the city that gives plenty of interesting features that could be used for the Gamepad. The touch screen could just be the smartphone and that in itself would be a great feature that could have a lot of potential in making the game better.

Thanks! Both comments have re assured me that I will be getting the wiiu version. And yeah the game pad fits perfectly for the game! Can't wait.

From a graphical standpoint, the PS4 will most likely have a slight edge. But gameplay, wii u will win hands down. This is a game that will benefit greatly from a second screen, and I have a feeling once you play it on wii u, it will be nearly unplayable on the other systems. Hopefully Ubi takes advantage of this opportunity! I will support this game for wii u, but they have to come through with it, I don't want a half assed 360 port with a mini map on the screen. I want something that makes me say WOW!

Yeah that's what I'm saying. I really want this game on the WiiU, but they really need to do something with the Gamepad. I want something so good that it will make playing the other versions boring after experiencing the WiiU one.

Idk.

But I did switch my ps3 preorder to Wii u because I want to support the Wii u and ac3 look nice. So I don't doubt the Wii u watchdogs will look good. I know it will.

I think the ps4 will look better tho. Just more room to play, so to speak.

 

And if I could get a ps4 I would because it would bring the vita back to life and have off screen play. But no ps4 for me until next yr.

So I'll enjoy the Wii u of screen play.

They only showed PC and PS4 they never once showed the current gen consoles or Xbox one.

Good info. Appreciate it. I'm feeling the same way for splinter cell but haven't really got into those games since the original.

There is nothing put out there by Ubisoft for me to believe this game will be visually anything more than a 360 port. They have came out and raved about ps4 and xb1 version and what the consoles can do. If Wii U version was at alll close wouldn't they mention it along with them as its a "next gen" console also. Please giys I've seen it too many times don't set your self up for disappointment. Just hope they do something interesting with the gamepad because that's all they will focus on. Splinter cell comes out in a month and haven't heard developers say anything positive about Wii U version or about using the consoles strenghts over ps360. At this point developers are OK with Wii U games running at parity with ps360 ita a job well done on their part.I mean we all can hope but the signals they are giving say other wise.

There's no guaranteeing the Wii U version won't be a lazy port. I'll most likely be buying the PS4 or PC version for the extra gameplay.

If it's anything like that AC3 port than i might consider cancelling my preorder, i personally haven't had a good experience with that game.

Anything is possible.... But I just have a bad feeling. There is so much potential this game on Wii U and I just think ubi is gonna waste it. Am I wrong to want a console with 1GB of ram to get a better looking game than a console with 512mb.... At least you can do is use the ram available to give us a better game even if you don't know then ends and outs of the EDRAM and CPU caches.

I don't think there's any Wii U specific footage for Watch Dogs. Yet...

There was that 5 second clip they showed on the E3 Nintendo direct, the buttons do match up with the ones on the controller but it could possibly be the Xbox version. I doubt Nintendo would include footage from the xbox/1 or PS3/4 versions in the Nintendo direct.

Might have been running on PC... But yeah, the buttons do match up, so they're at least using a pro controller.

[SoldMyWiiUAndLeftTheForums]

I'm getting the PS4 version at the moment but if the Wii U version proves to be about the same I will get it on Wii U.

I hope it's the same on Wii U.

They've used PS360 footage at E3 2011, so they could've used Xbox 1 footage.

[GAMER1984]

lets just dont get hopes up and wait until we see Wii U specific gameplay. like Splinter cell blacklist comes out in 20 days and we havent had a Wii U specific direct feed footage demo.... wonder why? Wii U will be an amazing console for games developed exclusive for it...other than that you are SOL. thats what im expecting
