Confirmed: Assassin Creed 2 coming to Wii

Assassin's Creed 2 Coming to Wii?
It's coming sooner than later, and to a new platform as well.
by Chris Roper

April 16, 2009 - Though we've already seen the teaser, which is as good an announcement as any, Ubisoft today made the officially official announcement of Assassin's Creed II. While we already knew it was coming, one interesting bit of info is included within the text - a holiday 2009 release window on all current-generation systems, which reads to us like it's hitting the PS3, Xbox 360 and Wii (and probably the PC as well). Note that the first title never hit Nintendo's latest console.

We recently posted some details on what the game will entail, so be sure to check that out if you haven't already. And don't forget to hit up our media gallery for a couple teaser trailers.

Update: Ubisoft has confirmed that the game is also coming to the PSP.

I already read about this in Game Informer... Considering I'm a huge fan of the original Assassin's Creed (I've played it many times over), if this game holds true to it's supposed non-repetitive gameplay, we'll have an epic win on our hands.

... There's no way in hell I'd ever get it on the Wii, though. Worse graphics, plausibly funky controls, maybe even different gameplay, etc. etc. I'll stick to my 360.

It was on the 360 as well, you know; it's the system I own it on.

Would definitely be worth it if it supports MotionPlus.

I have this strange feeling that I'm gonna turn into this MotionPlus addict, where I won't purchase a game unless it has MotionPlus support.

I didn't click the link but to my knowledge Ubi have only confirmed 'coming to current gen consoles' and that the PSP version is a spin off of the first like the ds game.

As I said on Kotaku, I can see a lot of wii fans being very disappointed.

*clicks the link*

Edit: Not confirmed, rumour.

and I like how this thread is titled:
"Confirmed: Assassin Creed 2 coming to Wii"

Yet, the actual article it points to is titled:
"Assassin's Creed 2 Coming to Wii?"

Somehow the "?" at the end turned into "Confirmed" at the beginning...

DPrinny 

This was expected
There was talk of a sequel before the first was finished
It was also on the DS
But I dont think its worth bothering with

We shall see what they do with it

It definatly isn't worth bothering with. Terrible game, really. Just a sidescroller with terrible controls, and terrible stage layout. Oh, and it was a prequel, rather than the original just being on the DS. ... A terrible prequel at that.

No way!!

I'm completely sure Assasin Creed 2 comes to Wii. yeah!!

And I invite all of you Wii owners to buy This great title and support the hardcore games on Wii!!

We together will finally convince these STUPIDS Wiixbox360 and Wiips3 owners to preffer the FAR BETTER Wii VERSION instead the sucky xbox360/ps3 versions.

Maximo

I'm sure stickmode's comment is complete sarcasm.

He's actually a big Wii fanboy, so I'm sorry to assume that wasn't sarcasm.

Fail.

But to the sane Wii owners in this thread, more power to you. If they make a decent version and not a watered down port, then it could be good... But lately with all the Dead Space is coming to Wii, you never know if it's going to be the real game or some sort of on-rails inferior version.

C'mon guys lets be a lil down to earth. PS3 and 360 are not gods there were a few games where the Wii version was far better than the HD versions(The Godfather comes to mind).

But I do agree with most of you. When it comes to the Wii port most developers don't even know where to start.

How do you know its gonna be a great title?
It might turn out to be shite on all formats.

Is there any point? What about Wii owners that didn't play the first one? I can understand if it has nothing to do with the first one but if they do, it is quite silly.

However I wouldn't mind a good spinoff with controls like Spiderman: WoS.

Yes, you're right: I'm a BIG Wii FANBOY!!
But let me be clear, I'm a hardcore gamer and I support every hardcore game coming to Wii, at this time I have almost 80 Wii games in my collection and all are hardcore games. The mayority are from third-parties and only few are first-party Nintendo titles (of course hardcore first-party), I don't like the crappy and kiddy games and I will never support them. I hate soo much the xbox360 and the ps3, becose I have a hight-end PC with far better graphics than these consoles and some of the best PC titles emigrating to these consoles and the sequels never back to PC, the PC market is losing some of the deep franchises cause of these consoles. That is one reason, the other is the monopoly that Microsoft and Sony force to the games market, paying lots of money to third-parties to deliver AAA tiltes to their consoles, leaving Nintendo consoles and PC games apart. This is a very bad practice!!
The're destroying the game market!!
The third-parties are now wrong accustomed to receive money in change of good titles!!
Third-party says: "If you don't pay me tons of money, I will never deliver to you AAA titles and you only receive crappy games" You know what I mean...
And third reason, I recognice the Wii's controls are far better than any game device, even far better than PC, xbox360 and ps3 combined. I was a huge PC gamer adict, but when the Wii comes everything changes, now I'm play almost 8 hours everyday my Wii and only 1 or 2 hours my PC. There's something very good that Nintendo did with the Wii to this happen!!
I played Assassin Creed on my PC and I imagine how great will be control Altair's attacks using Wiimote gestures, will be simply AMAZING!!

Now with AC2 coming to Wii, this will happen!!
For all Wiixbox360 and Wiips3 owners that complaint if AC2 Wii will be a watered down port, you're totaly wrong. Is demostrated that with huge effort the Wii games will be better than the xbox360/ps3 versions, that is really happening. The last year and this year appeared some games better on Wii like PES2008 and 2009, ShaunWhite, Tiger Woods and others coming: Virtua Tennis 2009, Silent Hill, RE:UC2, The Conduit, Ghostbusters..etc. And this amount will be increasing in the future, following the fundamental rule: graphics as close the next-gen counterparts, far better controls and all the same modes and features the others versions have.

I wasn't aware that there were 80 hardcore games for Wii. But I guess it's all in the eye of the beholder... That's great that you have a good PC and all, but some people prefer great console games. One of the reasons I prefer games like CoD4 for the PS3 is that it's a hell of a lot easier to play with friends. Gaming is a very social hobby, and I think many devs are forgetting that. Plus, splitscreen is always a huge plus for me when I have some friends over.

But do you really play 9+ hours a day gaming? That's not even hardcore, that's exreme. Do you have a job, or go to school? Because it would be awfully hard to succeed and play maybe more than 3 hours a day. Or even less...

Finally, you have no idea what AC2 will be like on Wii. Maybe because...oh I don't know, they haven't even released a confirmation or information about it. Actually if it weren't for GameInformer, for all we'd know, this game could be a package of mini-games across all consoles. Stranger things have happened.

I'm not going to get my hopes up. Newly announced games are always listed for every platform.
