Ubisoft Quebec facebook page:http://www.facebook.com/ubisoftquebec?sk=app_404596412628 : Under the work for us tab, has listed three new full time listings on Dec. 5th. Being:

• "Senior Engine Programmer - Wii U - AAA title"
• "Network Programmer - Wii U - AAA title"
• "TOOLS PROGRAMMER – AAA MMO"

Sorry, linking wasn't working.

I would say there is a good chance there will also be a PC version.

Just saying.

Though an MMORPG on the WiiU would make sense with that controller.

Pretty much. :P

I wouldn't need another game ever again if they kept supporting the title.

So would this mean thaat Nintendo's Online is finally good?

Meh. I remember MS and Sony BOTH announcing they are trying to have a MMORPG on their console at some point. It never happens. Sony came out with DCU which maybe fits that bill, but was still vastly lacking when compared to what people expect - something more like WoW.

Console + MMO = fail

Well, in fact MMO = fail for me in general, i dont understand how these games actually get sales

Lolwut? :?

I knew the Wii-U would offer a more varied gaming experience, but an MMO? And Ubisoft?

What in the world? Too early to tell I suppose. Hopefully it turns out to be cool!

Not gonna happen, Nintendo will never let Ubisoft to do such an important task.

Besides, Pokemon creator have mentioned that they don't intend to do something big in consoles since they think the experience is more suited for handhelds, in other words, no proper Pokemn game for WiiU and no MMO Pokemon...although i admit it would be amazing.

Remember when Ubisoft said they would bring "Nintendo-like" quality games to the Wii? Yeah, I'm being really skeptic here about their claims.

you can't call it AAA until it gets that scoreGunSmith1_basic

AAA has nothing to do with scores outside of System Wars. All it means is that the game has a relatively big budget.
