Ubisoft’s intriguing new IP “Watch Dogs” will be released on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC. Senior vice president of sales and marketing Tony Key confirmed the news to IGN.
There currently aren’t any plans to bring the game to Wii U, but Key didn’t rule out the possibility completely.
Key said:
“Not at this time. We have so many titles in development for Wii U right now that we need to keep that team focused and this is a very very ambitious game. But it’s not out of the question.”
Ubisoft open to making ZombiU a multiplatform IP in the future

One of Ubisoft’s more interesting Wii U titles is ZombiU, which just so happens to be an exclusive for the system. However, vice president of sales and marketing Tony Key says that it could wind up on other platforms – just don’t count on it happening anytime soon.
Key said the following about the possibility of porting ZombiU to additional systems:
“ZombiU at its core was designed to be a great Wii U game and in order to make that work on other platforms they would have to change a lot of what makes the game cool. And I’m not saying that can’t be done, but not in the next six months, you know?”
Key later revealed that Ubisoft considered bringing the Wii IP Red Steel to different consoles:
“We’ve done this before. When we launched the Wii we had a game called Red Steel that was exclusive to the Wii and it was designed for the Wii. We talked about bringing that to other platforms, and we always kept coming back to ‘what makes the game cool isn’t what would make it cool on those other systems.’ The brand itself we generally try to exploit everywhere we can, but I think for now it’s going to be a really, really good Wii U game.”

Nintendo of America’s Twitter account has officially confirmed Fire Emblem: Awakening for North America.
The company tweeted:
“We are excited to confirm a NEW game announcement coming to the US: the new 3DS Fire Emblem! More info to come.”
At this point a 2013 release is probable, though maybe it’ll make it out before the end of the year.
… And to think we would have received no 3DS announcements had Reggie kept quiet!
