That sounds like a nice way of saying no

lol

I mean, it's clear it is not going to happen.

... still, would kill them to make th Ezio Collection + Assassins Creed on the Switch? Grinding for 100% Sync on the go sounds lovely~

Best dodge ever.
  • He didn't blame the system
  • He didn't blame Ubisoft
  • He didn't blame the market
  • He didn't said it was impossible
  • He didn't confirm anything
  • He didn't answer the question
There is not even a way to get mad at the guy.

Would likely be a massive downgrade, game seems to be pushing these current systems to the limit

Yeah, I don't see a game that is squeezing a PS4 to come on Switch but the Ezio collection + 1,3,4 and Rogue could be easily done.

Panic Button are wizards and even them had to downgrade (not to a point worth calling "massive" but still) less demanding games on more scaleable engines. Ubisoft was always up to putting their stuff in as many places as they could even when no one else did (wii u). Emphasis on "could".

Yeah it would probably be a pretty high amount of development time and effort for what would be a pretty heavily downgraded version of the game. Origins ran at 30 FPS most of the time so it's not quite the same as Doom where they could cut the framerate in half for the Switch version.

I think I would prefer a dedicated, more unique AssCreed experience on the Switch instead. The hardware limitation might end up creating a subpar port I fear.

I mean, with the history of Wii U and those AC games...yeah I don't see that franchise making it over anytime soon really.

I'm just not a fan of the ip. I do wish some of Ubisoft more core titles would grace the system but that isn't going to happen. I applaud Bethesda so much for what they are doing. We won't see this type of support for a Nintendo console maybe ever again.

I'd take Ezio Collection, 3, Rogue; Farcry 3, 4, and Blood Dragon; any rainbow six vegas, etc.

Just give me solid ports of last-gen games, at a reasonable price-point, major publishers!

It was a cheeky answer given during gameinformer's rapid-fire interview. How did someone turn this into an article...?

This was most likely a misinterpretation of what was said on the video. The rest of the thread has just been lists of ports people want, so the thread is now closed.
