Batman: Arkham Origins multiplayer mode revealed, not coming to Wii U

@proletaryus It does get a bit stupid.
Destiny not on Wii U!
Halo 5 not on Wii U!
Last of Us not on Wii U!

We get it, stop this already, whoever is writing this anti-Nintendo propeganda.

@thekazumalord It's decisions like this that just make it harder and harder to deal with as a Nintendo fan. Just add it to the list of companies that have a grudge against Nintendo for absolutely no reason.

@Thanatos2k It can actually, if you look about Black Ops 2 multiplayer it's fantastic. You're just ignorant.

@Thanatos2k I doubt that's the reasoning. It's probably because they don't want to spend money bringing it over to WiiU which has thus far done pretty poor as far as sales. It might not be profitable. Just speculation on my part

@Legend002 So if your console got the same treatment you would be fine with that? Oh yeah lets scrap all multiplayer on PS3 because their audience is tiny

@Legend002

Removing an entire online multiplayer is a lot different than one version of a game having exclusive content/DLC.

@Legend002 You totally miss the point. There is a difference between DLC exculsive (because that what it is in AC and it's like a week, you cam buy it later... if you care of course) and cutting multiplayer.

@Legend002 What Watch Dogs and Assassin's Creed IV are doing is different. Sony partnered with Ubisoft to provide one exclusive piece of DLC that generally lasts about an hour. Warner is cutting something that's already developed on Wii U that generally will be far longer than one hour for a lot of people. I don't care one way or another about it because I've no interest in the series, I just think that Warner better not complain that their game won't sell as well on the platform.

@solideye11 Wow your powers of mathematics are incredible. You probably think this game was made by 3 people

This is fair. This man is wise. save it for the arkham city sequel.

@meatz666 I think it is pretty hard. The combat system uses slow-mo a lot for the pacing. Slow-mo is problematic in co-op as the time would run differently for the two players. Then they have to solve problems like both players attacking the same enemy, and the players paths intersecting etc etc.

I don't think it's impossible, but I can understand if it's somewhat of a mess.

It's WB Montreal not Nintendo.

@demon-returns This isn't Nintendo's doing. They don't want a crap port of a triple-A title.

@demon-returns

The only way I see this being Nintendo's fault is if that they themselves don't do anything to get the mode included.

This is more WB Games Montreal and Splash Damage not caring about Nintendo fans.

@demon-returns

that's why i've never understood gamers accepting the inclusion of multi on their single player experience.

god and friends know i haven't.

@IJONOI What if they decide to remove singleplayer next?

@IJONOI I don't think anyone is. Some games make sense with multi. Batman is not one of them

@IJONOI

too late. resources already allocated.

@megaoverlord12

i'll combine your comment with the article about nintendo lasting for another 100 years and double down.

@dragonkantus

there is if it's in my single player experience.

@thegamegod The single-player is being developed by WB Montreal, while the multiplayer was outsourced, so I highly doubt it will be detrimental to the experience. I am still very pissed that Wii U owners are getting a lesser game for the same price, even though I do not, but plan on, currently own said console.

@thegamegod

NO single player game needs multi.

great multi doesn't need single player.

azz multi needs single player.

azz single doesn't need multi, since, the 2 gametypes are separate entities.

it's time for multi to become completely separate from the single player campaign.

make it digital AND cheaper than the single player price.

of course, the single player is overpriced, as well.
