BECAUSE OF YOU I NOW HAVE TO BUY A PS4 JUST TO KEEP UP WITH THIRD-PARTY GAMES >:0

[Socalmuscle]

Anyone else find this mindset to be a bit of a self-fulfilling prophecy? If consumers maintain a mindset like this, than is there any wonder that third parties supposedly "Don't do well" on Nintendo systems? It makes sense that if consumers who buy Nintendo systems choose to purchase a multiplatform title for that system, than that will improve the situation with third party titles on their systems. Nintendo can do whatever they want to attract third parties, but if consumers don't make the choice to buy the Wii U version of a multiplatform game, than it would all be a wasted effort.

Great post.

I figured we'd start getting some multiplat announcements after the PS4 reveal. Sony didn't want Nintendo stealing their thunder. And offered them a piece of the keynote for their silence.

I'm so glad this is coming to the Wii U, but I'll be getting this on PS4. It will be the graphically superior version, and therefore the better version.

But who knows, maybe my opinion will change between now and then.

[Tricky Sonic]

Excellent, I'm actually interested to see screens side by side now of the different versions. This hopefully will look just as good as it does on ps4 and next box so people can shut up about the Wii U being the lesser of the next gen in raw power.

B that is the most not good thing I ever seen you type. Gameplay is king...I can't see the graphics being that much better, and if they make unique features using the Gamepad then the Wii U can be a much better version. Realistically it will be like that for a lot of 3rd party multiplatform games....proper utilization of the GamePad can really be huge in deciding which version. Especially if the graphical difference isn't as big as people think.

[uPadWatcher2]

I'll save myself the $699.99 and get Watch_Dogs for the U.

[AndyG]

I can't see Ubisoft taking much advantage of the WiiU for this version of the game. I just hope it won't be a sloppy port with tacked on gamepad features and low frame rate as we have seen in some ports

[Invertednarrow]

I'm totally getting this for Wii U if it's a good port!

[Socalmuscle]

This game was meant for the gamepad.

I have s feeling the dual shock 4 shown today wasn't final...

wouldn't you instead get it for pc since its grapically better the the ps4 version and possible cheaper if you know what your doing?

[syks-1]

think i will be getting this for wii u as i defo wont be buying a ps4 anytime soon...maybe in a year or 2 after launch when the price comes down

Nope, not a joke. I'm completely serious.

This is me speaking without knowing the features of the Wii U version. Yes, if the GamePad's use is really good, like I said, it's possible to change my mind between now and then.

But for now, it's a PS4 buy for me.

[scotty79]

Youve done it now the torches and pitchforks are out.The locals dont like change.But they do like nintendo and you have offended them

Absolute shame about the timing of this announcement,good that the wii u gets it

well if anybody wants the superior version of it and smooth online experience, PC is the way to go... if you have the appropriate PC also... ps4 is a crapy cheap pc compared to a pc.

For me personal, I have different aspect in that.

If watchdogs comes with moding tools, ITS A 100% buy for my PC. Moding is a next level.

If the game is like sleeping dogs style a bit more innovative... It will be a wii U buy. Because from a point and after, if the game does not appeal to me fo rmy pc experience, I can compromise with lower graphical capabilities, than pc, but also have more fun in my living room.

I made a topic in ubisoft about it, screaming about the bad ports... and requested them to be careful with that...

here it is... dont flame me, I expressed to them my personal opinion http://forums.ubi.co...atch-dogs-Wii-U

Great. Another third party game. WiiU needs that.

How does something with better graphics equal a superior version? Surely the one with the best user experience is a superior version? Now maybe if the PS4 version allowed you to use your smartphone as Adam's smartphone it might be cool, or it was the only version available in 3D.

But if you want better graphics get a PC for the same price as a PS4, you'll be able to play games, browse the web, edit videos to share on youtube, write documents, play flash games, get cheaper prices on games. It's the most versatile gaming machine ever.

I admit pretty graphics sometimes plays a great role in immersion, but in the HD era you can't really complain. I remember when I had only a few pixels on screen and my imaginations filled in the blanks.


A PS4 is a GREAT console, but only if the game-play superseeds any other. So far there aren't any games that I see that

1) Wouldn't be achievable on Wii U at a lower frame rate and resolution
2) Wouldn't have a better user experience using the gamepad.

Awesome!

And if you own a WIi U and ever complain about lack of third party support, but buy this on PS4, YOU are the problem!

here, take all my infinite likes


It's good to see a game that's coming for PS4 also coming to Wii U. Well, that's mostly good for the Wii U I guess, because it's at least some sign of next-gen third party support.
