BOOOO.....when will nintendo stop jerking around its diminishing fans

still on the fence about pre-ordering just cause i'm tight on money right now.

A shame really a game like AC would had made the 3DS shine a lot more.

interesting

Kind of a shame considering that the 3DS' launch line-up was really bad. All of the awesome games promised were pushed to either the summer or unknown dates, and we ended up with just Street Fighter 4 (for the third time) and Rayman 3D (for the fourth time). Oh, and the crappy games like the Submarine game and Ridge Racer.

Well this is interesting. Still I'm looking forward to Revelations and man oh man I'm finally catching up on my backlog. Consider Brotherhood off my list. Either way my wallet is still going to hurt this year.

I don't know what to do, I'm really running low on money now from all the other pre-orders, I've got money left for 1 GAME: Assassin's creed revelations or Saints Row 3? Can someone tell me their opinion on which to buy?

NIce to FINALLY hear something concrete, but I'd better see a good Assassin's Creed game on the 3ds in the next few years.  

Thank god this happened. It would have been horrible only on the 3DS and pretty wasteful considering it will actually sell better on home consoles more then the 3DS. Thank you Ubisoft. Also previous attempts at portable Assassin Creed games have been sadly lacking.

I was looking forward to this =(

I am glad to know the full story but this is kind of upsetting, because this means that ACR was never really planned; it just happened. Don't get me wrong I am glad ACR is coming and I will buy it no problem, but it feels like it just became an idea that blew up because Ubisoft realized how much more money they could make off it being a full AC game. But whatever November 15 can't get here soon enough :)

It's alright they can just port revelations to ds hint hint. I got a 3ds but ended up returning it to costco cause of lack of titles.

Well theres still a lot of new games to look forward to.... plus backward compatibility gives me a chance to play top rated games i missed out on.

Another blow to the 3DS. Nintendo deserves it; or at least, NOA. Operation Rainfall has shown that Reggie's a sh*thead who is very, very out of touch with gamers. And the entirety of the Wii lifespan has shown NOA is incredibly cheap and doesn't deem ad campaigns or, y'know, game awareness as important. I'm glad this AC game never materialized on a Nintendo console. They don't deserve it. They're much more content launching a console without any worthwhile games for at least a year. They really don't deserve the success they've gotten with the Wii and DS. They need more blows to their ego like this.

im glad they moved it to a console title, i like those alot better anyway

Makes sense.

That story arc was probably better suited for consoles. I wouldn't want to get a 3DS just to have some questions answered that never did...

So, the 3DS is already losing 3rd party games...?

it's ok since I know a handheld Assasin's Creed will never be able to  surpass a console 1, still liked more the 'Lost Legacy' sufix..

well its their decision.. and im happy
