Posted August 3, 2006 Man I didn't think I could be more hyped for the Wii than I already was but after reading that!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 3, 2006 An announcement press release from Ubisoft specifically indicates the seven announced games are meant for Wii's launch date, not the "launch period" we had originally suspected. The company also promised "more" games are in development for 2007. :shock: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 3, 2006 Rumor is Prince of Persia is coming too, i would have posted the news... but it seems abit fishy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 3, 2006 Wow, great stuff UbiSoft. They really love the Wii! I hope they dont expect too much from it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 3, 2006 Loving Ubisoft right now. They are really into the Wii and believe in it and Nintendo. The fact that they are developing a peripheral for GT Pro is very interesting. I'm sure it will make many developers look up and see what they can do. Will most likely get both Far Cry and Red Steel. We must show our appreciation of their support. No doubt Prince of Persia is already in development, and hopefully a new Splinter Cell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 4, 2006 Yeh but launch games usually sell really well so its quite a wise move. I hope Ubi get repaid for their efforts in the Wii. Anyone concerned at the lack of eastern support? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 4, 2006 Lets hope their faith is well placed. Far Cry is sweet to hear. Whats this lack of eastern support? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 5, 2006 Like companies like say Capcom not really supporting Nintendo like other western companies like EA and Ubi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 5, 2006 There has been talks about Resident Evil Wii. There's some RPGs heading for it, Dragon Quest and FF:CC I think. Good old Sega on the vitual console. It might not compare with what Ubisoft is offering but I woulden't say there was a lack. EA support everything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 5, 2006 EA support everything. EA are the gaming equivalent of a good bra.. it'll support what's there but you'd kinda rather it just wasn't there.. (I'm only joking by the way.. before the 'pervert' insults start flying around ) The Ubisoft support is great though.. like a Wonderbra.. I imagine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 5, 2006 EA are the gaming eqivalent of a good bra.. it'll support what's there but you'd kinda rather it just wasn't there.. There's very few posts these days that i laugh about, but this was definitely one of them. Nice one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 5, 2006 Well its best that Nintendo's nipples aren't showing and that EA is there. We wouldn't want another Dreamcast now would we? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 5, 2006 Give EA a break, they make games people buy and Wii definitely need them on board with all the Need for Speed and Fifa games. We will see the Eastern support grow once they see how phenomenal the Wii does at launch. Seriously, I anticipate another DS Lite kind of performance in Japan. It has to be said some of these developers are a bit slow getting on board. Konami, Temco, Capcom and even Sega have only about 1 game each announced. Square Enix is slightly better.

Posted August 5, 2006 Hey.. I was only joking around with my post, obviously EA could be an important factor in the success of the Wii, whatever standard their games may be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 5, 2006 Far Cry Yay. Red Steel Yay. I'll pass on all the rest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 6, 2006 7 games on lauch window is a feast!! Let's see if the games stack up to the hype Ubisoft of America president puts on them. At least Far Cry and Red Steel are bound to be at least good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 6, 2006 If the Wii contines with great games like these some companies are going to be very rich. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 6, 2006 Ubisoft are going to be so rich.how can companies like capcom and konami be so stupid!?It's a guranteed succes especially after the ds!THEY LIVE IN JAPAN! i never thought the wii would get more japanese support than western but there u go Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 6, 2006 Exactly, Ubi are taking a risk with this one. But hey, you've got to take risk to become succesful, and Ubi are right on this one. With Red Steel and Rayman they've been hyped mucho already and their Wii launch should be fantastic. I'm really looking forward to Far Cry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 6, 2006 Wow. I bet most of these games will be online too as they would've just said they weren't online if they weren't going to be when asked I really can't decide which launch games to get now. I want so many. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 6, 2006 FAR CRY <3<3<3<3 That's what I thought. I've never played it, but it's supposed to be pretty good isn't it?!...Ubisoft is going all out it seems, helping Nintendo make a console that really is for everyone (within reason ). The whole problem with the GC is that companies just abandoned it cos they weren't selling many games to start with, therefor causing it to lack in many of the more 'mature' genres. Software companies don't seem to realise that it's mostly the software that 'defines' a console. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 6, 2006 I haven't played it either but am also REALLY hyped for it :P What's even better is that the Wii is getting FPS games early in its life-span (whereas the DS didnt even though it's perfect for them). Hopefully EA will announce a RTS for it too Software companies don't seem to realise that it's mostly the software that 'defines' a console. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
