Ubisoft says Project Cafe is “a fantastic platform”, can leverage PS3/360 work for the console
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot recently provided a few comments regarding Project Cafe. Although specific information about the system’s functionality was not revealed, the remarks are interesting since Ubisoft is the first-third-party to share significant thoughts about Nintendo’s next console. Guillemot said the following on an investor’s call:
“The platform Nintendo is coming with is really a fantastic platform. We think it will be extremely successful. What we see is that we will be able to leverage a lot of the work we do for Xbox 360 and PS3 while we create games for the platform. So we will not have to redo completely the games that we create. We’ll be able to use all the capacity the console is giving but also use all the work we do for the other platforms.”
Looks like Project Cafe could be getting a decent amount of PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 games in the future. I suppose that’s not necessarily a bad thing! The Wii has missed out on some tremendous third-party releases…

Ubisoft was in fact planning on an E3 announcement for Rayman Origins Wii
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
Yesterday an Amazon page and boxart were found for Rayman Origins on Wii. Before that, we heard that Ubisoft was planning on announcing the Wii version of the title at E3. Apparently that’s exactly what Ubisoft had in store. The company told Dutch website N1ntendo:
“Rayman Origins will also be released as a retail-game for Wii, even though this is/was supposed to be a surprise for this year’s E3.”
I suppose we’ll receive an official announcement about the game at E3. Now the only uncertainty is whether or not the DS GameStop listing was an error…
Thanks to Dragoon for the tip!
