Love the GC. Still play mine occasionally.

I'm still sad they never released the orange model in NA. Beautiful!

Color me quite impressed. It's refreshing to see a developer put forth the effort to demonstrate that the Wii U is clearly more capable than the HD twins. I will reward this effort by picking up the game upon release.

#168891 Ubisoft working on a new, exclusive Rayman Legends demo for Wii U

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 08 February 2013 - 01:56 PM

Calling it now:

1 week before the new, exclusive demo goes live on the eShop, Ubisoft will issue a press release stating that the demo has been delayed for 2 months and is also appearing on PSN & Xbox Live. All 3 consoles will receive the demo on the same day. :P

#168736 Okay, time for all the other 3rd party exclusives to get delayed!

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 08 February 2013 - 08:46 AM

Well Microsoft has this stupid policy. If they release a game on their platform, it has to be at the same time or first for Microsoft. The other versions can't have exclusive content either.


If I were a developer/publisher, I'd tell them to shove it. What's the worst that can happen? You still get to release your game on other platforms and you don't have to worry about additional development costs for a 360 version. At that point, Microsoft would be on the losing end with no version for their console what-so-ever. Their loss.


#168496 Even Rayman Legends Creator Protesting Wii U Delay

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 07 February 2013 - 07:05 PM

I'll be there day 1. I never played Origins, so firing up the demo for Legends the first time was great fun.

Speaking for myself, I'm mostly upset that Ubisoft waited mere weeks before this game was going to release on Wii U to tell us it's been delayed for 7 months. I really don't care so much that it's no longer exclusive. I think Ubisoft needs to get this game out on Wii U and bring out the other versions in September. The fact we have to wait 7 months for ALL versions to release does suck.

I also wonder if people would've had a milder reaction to this news if the current state of affairs with Nintendo was completely different. With all the constant doom and gloom we keep hearing about Wii U and how it's already a failure, I believe this news, for most, was the straw that broke the camel's back. I think people are tired of all the negativity and this news just pushed most over the edge. I can understand the frustration. It's more common to hear about how Wii U is oh so wrong and a compete failure. It's like for one bit of positive news we hear about Wii U, the next day we hear four bits of negative news. I think today was just a bad day and most will move on and deal with it. Others, sadly, may not.

#168199 Even Rayman Legends Creator Protesting Wii U Delay

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 07 February 2013 - 09:45 AM

I don't know whether to laugh, cry or hurl. I just.....whatever....

“We heard from many Xbox & Playstation owners and Rayman fans who told us they really wanted to play Rayman Legends on their current system. We decided to give the fans what they wanted while at the same time broadening the audience exposed to this innovative and memorable game.â€


You know what's funny about this? If Nintendo fans were begging for a particular game to come to their platform, developers and publishers, 99.9% of the time, wouldn't give them a second thought. Yet, some vocal PS3/360 fans manage to get the game put on their respective platforms. Pathetic... People laugh and think it's ridiculous when some suggest that there's a conspiracy against Nintendo. At this point, I don't know what to think anymore.
