Ubisoft has explained why Watch Dogs was recently delayed on the Wii U! Although this was a short response, it's better than nothing! This article contains what was said.
Hanzala from eXputer: "With Ubisoft's practices becoming increasingly anti-consumer lately, the destruction of The Sands of Time Remake looks almost inevitable."
Hey Ubi, here's a gun, don't shoot yourself in the foot.
*Ubi takes gun, aims at foot, empties clip*
Top executives including games boss Sean Shoptaw have also been promoted…
Behind XDefiant's toxic work culture, crunch, delays, and a group of directors and managers internally referred to as 'The Boys Club'.
Man the industry just keeps on going with all this bs and to think this is ubisoft again remember what happened with that skull bones team same crap.

This game will be tossed out broken unplolished with a bloated budget trying to be cod but will fail sense ubi can get there shit in order. If i was me i would have gotten rid of this boys club asap there is alot looking for work out there.
Every industry has these issues
Some companies I’ve worked for were great and some were toxic as hell (UPS when I was a teenager was extremely toxic and I have heard it still is) It all starts at the top. They either hold people accountable , set standards and treat people with respect or the crap rolls downhill.
Translation:
"The Wii U version doesn't mean that much to us. It's a pity release, that we anticipate will flop anyway. For that reason; we're focusing on the other versions first and foremost and will consider finishing up the Wii U version later."
My take on it:
It's this same, dumb mentality of putting Nintendo gamers last that turn off buyers. If it's a flop; that's on Ubi's head first.
Thanks for all your responses guys :D Make sure to join the discussion on the actual post. There are some pretty interesting ideas there :)
Said to for ages.......... WATCH_DOG'S NEEDS TO GO NEXT GEN ONLY! Ubi could have done the novemeber 13 release date, at least it'll be out before July.
Well seems like the Wii u version might be that version like "Need For Speed" Will look great and play great but wont sell a lot because it will be late to party...
It sounds like they don't have enough manpower to finish all versions of the game for simultaneous release. I imagine they want to avoid a Battlefield 4-esque fiasco with Watch_Dogs since it's a new IP. You know what they say about first impressions...
