Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
It’s no secret that Rayman Origins was a relative bomb. It sold poorly at retail, yet, somehow, Ubisoft managed to turn a profit on the title. The company shared that tidbit with investors on a financial conference call today.
Ubisoft did not share any specific sales figures. They did say, however, that Rayman Origins “has the capacity to become a long-term seller for the company.”

Aksys teasing “special announcement” in next Nintendo Power
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Aksys Games and Nintendo Power must have a pretty decent relationship. The magazine was given the scoop on Shifting World in its January/February issue, and it appears that another reveal from the company is on the way.
Aksys included the following blurb in a blog post last week:
“Bonus: You might want to pick up the next Nintendo Power, on stands on 2/28, for a very special announcement.”
There’s a good chance that we’ll hear about this mysterious game earlier than the 28th. Subscribers usually get their copies a bit earlier than the newsstand date.
Thanks to Jake for the tip!
