Leaked Rayman Legends Wii U Video ‘Doesn’t Represent Final Game’

Posted on by

Ubisoft has commented on the Rayman Legends trailer which leaked earlier today stating that the video doesn’t represent the final game.

Ubisoft revealed that the video was designed to be seen by internal production teams who create game prototypes with work in progress development kits. This explains why the Wii U tablet controller was attached to the machine, as it was revealed earlier today that Wii U development kits are currently using wired controllers. Here’s the full statement from Ubisoft regarding Rayman Legends.

“An internal video showing images of Rayman Origins’ sequel has leaked over the Internet. This video was intended as a purely internal demonstrative video, and in NO way represents the final game, the final console or their features. This video was destined for internal production teams who often create game prototypes with work in progress development kits. Ubisoft confirms the development of Rayman Legends handled by Michel Ancel and his team in Montpellier.”

A number of sketches and an information sheet which is reportedly from Super Smash Bros Universe have managed to find their way onto a Japanese imageboard and have been picked up by 4Chan. Along with the character sketches more information has leaked about the characters that will be making an appearance. Super Smash Bros has already been confirmed for both Wii U and Nintendo 3DS.

King K.Rool
It says something about using crocodiles (Kremlings/Klaptraps?) as part of his moveset, along with cannonballs. The last line describes using great power to summon his ship. It will then fire cannonballs on the stage. (Final Smash?)

Ghirahimu
Uses a sword and evil magic. Final Smash is calling his master.

Crystal
Will use a magic stick. She makes barrier and shoots fireballs. Final Smash involves dinosaur friends?

Saki Amamia
Acrobatic sword user with a fast gun. Final Smash is a bit iffy. Something monsters or something.

Respected technology publication Wired and gaming publication Kotaku are reporting that details of Nintendo’s forthcoming 3DS console have been leaked on a Chinese bloggers website.

“The effect of the [3D] screen is amazing,” the blogger wrote, as translated by Kotaku.

The details come from someone who claims to have access to the 3DS development kit, Kotaku says. According to the report, the lower screen is the same size as the current Nintendo DS, but the upper screen is much bigger (and in 3-D, naturally).

Nintendo Wii: Gamestop Furious At Stores Over Black Nintendo Wii Leak

Major US video gaming retailer Gamestop has written a lengthy email to its North American stores after a legitimate promotional display of the Black Nintendo Wii was leaked by one of its staff onto the Internet.

As you know, there is a lot of rumor and speculation about various new products and titles launching this year. One of these is the Black Wii. Various blogs and internet sites are raising awareness about this product. Gamestop stores and associates should not proliferate these rumors. Today, you received POP for your windows regarding the Black Wii. Somehow, a picture of this appeared on the internet. It may seem cool to be in the know and feel compelled to share something like this. Nothing can be further from the truth. All activity like this does is hurt our reputation with publishers and manufacturers and potentially hurts our company. Until Nintendo decides to announce THEIR product, there should be no discussion of it with customers, period. If they ask, “It’s not appropriate to comment on speculation and rumor” should be the answer. The POP should be secured in the back room and left there until further notice. ANY violation of these will be treated with the most aggressive consequences. I believe strongly in the field organization, but I am as disappointed as I have been in my tenure here in how we are handling this. I am trusting that your professionalism will result in no further issues.
