I think it's just a matter of Ancel wanting to work on it himself and Rayman Origins having his attention.
Given they did the HD re-release (which was a good way to promote and revive the franchise) I don't see them as not selling it on all the consoles. Plus, after Red Steel, I'm not sure Ubisoft would be too enthusiastic about Nintendo exclusives (beside their shovelware).
For those of you who like the comedic stylings of Jimmy Fallon, he's doing a video game theme this week:
EDIT: (for those of you out of the US here is GI's description of who this dude is "Whatever you think of the guy's humor, Fallon always comes across as a genuine gamer who loves using his fame as a way to showcase games to mainstream audiences.")
The rest of the week on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon looks like this:
No one should like the comedy stylings of Jimmy Fallon. Gamer or not, his humor negates any positives contributions to society.
^Is he the fat black-haired dude who dated whats-her-name (comedienne)? Or is he the one that looks like an imp?

That 360 getting new CPU/GPU is OLD. It was announced in August that thye were doing that. Major Nelson debunked the CVG story (that Game Informer picked up) today.
He's the one that looks like an imp. The fat guy you're thinking of might be Horatio Sanz. The two of them were buddies on SNL years ago and always tried to work together.
Pach attack says Wii 2, 2 years late. Is this guy retarded? Like Nintendo was going to replace an ultra profitable console 3 years into its lifespan that was selling like mad?
I think if the Wii would have tanked, we would have had Wii 2 a long time ago like Pach attack suggests. But its only common sense that they would hold off as long as possible the way it sold.
Oh....snap
I've never played the 1st game, but I heard it was severely flawed compared to Hitman 2. Is it true that half the missions in Hitman 3 were actually remakes of Hitman 1 missions?
I still dont drink it.
That aspect is the one I dont get, I dont mind drinking in a party atmosphere but the I am sad let me drink it away I dont get or I don't need. I can handle my sorrow just fine.
I will jizz my pants if Zelda comes out in August,
This will make things much harder for me trying to hold off on playing Zelda until the Wii 2 comes out...because I don't wanna buy another Wii.
Game 6 of the Stanley Cup finals coming on at 8pm Eastern Time!
GO BRUINS!!!!!
That would make my year: Zelda in August, Gears in September, Batman in October, Uncharted in November and Assassin's Creed in December.
I was convinced Zelda was coming out November and it would come out when Uncharted 3, Skyrim and so many others hit. Of course I will play Zelda first but then I would have to move on. If it comes out August or Sept I can enjoy it with time.

PS3 is up from last year, still bad but not a disaster. LA Noire did great for the kind of game it is. Who the hell bought Brink?
3DS 194k
Last month it was 200k
Brink had a huge adveretising campaign like Homefront. The posters were plastered all over Walmarts and Gamestops.
