That's correct, Wendy, every Wii owner bought every Ubisoft game that was released at launch. Anyway, in reality, the only Ubisoft games that sold well, resulting in this increase in profit, were Red Stell and Rayman Raving Rabbids. Which, incidently, are the only two original games they made, the only two that weren't ports. Perhaps that might encourage less ports, more full games?
[QUOTE="KeyWii"]Your reward for buying them? More crappy games! Meanwhile Ubisoft uses those profits on their 360/PS3 projects which are hella expensive.Acenso
Wait you mean
Quality, new 360/PC titles and month old ports for the PS3 Assassin's Creed began development on the PS3 first.
Maybe Ubisoft will smarten up and stop being so damn lazy when it comes to developing on a nintendo console.

Why would they now that this came in? Like for example, if i study for 1 min on a test, and i get a 98, why would i study longer for the next game? Its not the best analogy but its there. They'll probably think that they can release crappy games and still make money, which is true. ONly low sales will change this. Or if a good game sells WAYYYY more then the crappy game.
Yea, that's what it means. :roll: I don'tpersonally know a Wii owner that bought a single game developed or published by Ubisoft. Stop generalizing.HeedleGlavin
Comedy gold. Fact is Ubi's revenue is 78% larger thanks to wii players and that means a lot of wii owners bought the crap ubi released. That's more likely to generate another crap storm of games courtesy of ubisuck.

Well not entirely true, considering the big sellers were Rayman and Red Steel, now Red Steel was junk, but Rayman was pretty good
I bought Red Steel and Rayman. Rayman is overrated and Red Steel is underrated IMOmighty_shark
I think the same. Rayman is short, is only fun in short bursts and lacks replayability. Red Steel is a decent length, it's so action packed and fun and I play the multiplayer quite often.
Wow I thought Wii owners hate Ubisoft, but they actually love them. They bought every garbage that Ubisoft threw at the Wii. linkTamarind_Face
It shows how people can take advantage of launch games. Anyway, it could encourage more 3rd party support, thus increase the competitiveness, and thus create better games.

If you'd actually read the article - you'd see that most of that improvement is because of Rayman and Red Steel - not because of the other craptastic titles they released. Rayman was actually decent.

Out of curiousity - have you actually played either game? Or, are you just quoting what other people have told you?
I bought 1 Ubi launch game, rented another, and have no desire to buy anything that doesn't come out of Ubi's Montreal or Red Storm Studio. Even then I'm not buying GRAW2. They need to learn to use DLC better because the annual game releases for console shooters kill MP communities and I'm not supporting that with my $.
i bought rayman and it was great while it lasted! i hope they release some more crazy rabbit motion sensing games!! and beyond good and evil 2 i dont care what system it is on i will have that game! otherwise ubisoft blows chunks! i hated even ghost recon on the 360. i could not stand that game. splinter cell is eh, rainbow six is eh.Â
Sheep are desperate for games. After how bad the GC did, they are trying to buy every 3rd party game out there in hopes 3rd parties dont abandon it. I bet you Ubisoft are using their Wii profits to fund the 360/PS3 games.
Ah whats next from them? Prince of Persia Rival Swords? LOL! Sheep are gonna buy this thinking it is an entirely new experience and has superior controls when it is already a game inside The Two Thrones.

Yeah - I'll bet that's it. Every Nintendo owner comes to SystemWars and knows that if they don't spend every dollar on every 3rd party game that comes out, they'll lose support... :|
...see my post about 5 up - you fit the category nicely.
