This information comes from Ubisoft brand development director Damien Moret…

“Ubisoft has a strong partnership with Nintendo, and we’ve invested in creating compelling games for the 3DS – we currently have more than 15 3DS games in development. Nintendo does a great job of creating markets around their new ideas. With Street Pass, the 3D camera and rendering and other innovations, they’re in a great position to do it again with the 3DS. Put those things together with Nintendo’s existing handheld install base, and our expectations are that the 3DS will be an even bigger success than the original DS.”

It’s true that Ubisoft has given a ton of support to the 3DS so far, but quality is much more important than quantity. We’ve only seen one real standout title from the company thus far – Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars. On the other hand, projects games as Combat of Giants: Dinosaurs and Asphalt 3D are terrible for the most part. I’d like to see Ubisoft take a more active role in producing fantastic content for the handheld, unlike the path they took with DS with saw a great amount of low-quality releases.
