Their figures for Watch_Dogs are (a bit) more conservative, but with Assassin’s Creed IV Ubisoft is expecting sales figures to hit the double-digit millions. 10 million would put the game ahead of most this holiday season, but it’s worth noting (thanks, VideoGamer!) that Assassin’s Creed III actually sold even more than that, clocking in at 12.5 million.
Assassin’s Creed IV will be out on October 29th for Wii U.

Super Smash Bros. will be launching on Wii U (and 3DS) next year. That presents the perfect opportunity for the game to make its first appearances at various events and tournaments in 2014.
MLG is one such venue where Super Smash Bros. for Wii U could be appearing. Major League Gaming CEO Sundance DiGiovanni has said on Twitter that Nintendo has interest, as does he.
The message reads:
@proxywolf @MLG @MrAdamAp it may. Nintendo is interested. So am I.

Ubisoft share price falls up to 32% amidst game delays
Posted on 11 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in General Gaming, General Nintendo, News, Platforms, Wii U | 2 Comments
Understandably, Ubisoft’s stock took a hit this week after they announced the delay of two of their biggest titles this holiday season: Watch_Dogs and The Crew. Both games were pushed into 2014, and shortly thereafter the company’s shares fell by the biggest margin they’ve seen since they debuted on the stock exchange all the way back in 1996. On top of that, we recently reported that the company said Rayman Legends and Splinter Cell: Blacklist sold below expectations, which probably contributed to their troubles.
Boogerman 20th Anniversary: The Video Game hits Kickstarter, planned for Wii U
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Does Boogerman ring a bell for anyone? Interplay came out with the SEGA Genesis (and later SNES) title nearly two decades ago. Now, new developer Toy Ghost LLC is looking to develop a follow-up/remake of sorts.
Toy Ghost has taken to Kickstarter in hopes of raising enough money to fund the project’s development. $375,000 is required in order to make Boogerman 20th Anniversary: The Video Game a reality. If that target is met, the title will land on Wii U, PlayStation 4, PS Vita, PC, and Mac. Boogerman 20th Anniversary would arrive in November 2014.
It’s worth mentioning that the original Boogerman creators are working on the game. Additionally, Grant Kirkhope will compose an entirely new musical score.
You can find more information in the video above. Also be sure to check out the official Kickstarter page here.
