While many companies aren’t bringing their games to Nintendo’s beleaguered console, Ubisoft has shown solidarity, and has just confirmed that Splinter Cell: Blacklist will be releasing day and date with the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC versions. Ubisoft has released a smidgen of information regarding the Wii U version, detailing some of the features Nintendo purchasers can expect:
Splinter Cell Blacklist offers enhanced gameplay options on the Wii U. The Gamepad replicates Sam’s OpSat, allowing the player to operate gadgets such as tri-rotor drones and the sticky cam through touch and motion-based inputs.
The Wii U GamePad controller allows for faster reaction times, letting the player mark enemies, switch weapons, quick reload and choose gadgets to adapt to any situation, among other features.
All versions of Splinter Cell: Blacklist will be arriving in stores on August 20th. Take a gander below for some screens of how the Gamepad will enhance Sam Fisher’s repertoire, and keep it tuned here for more information as it’s made available.
I've been gaming since my dad made the bad decision of buying me a Nintendo when I was four years old. Every day I'd find myself with my face glued to a TV screen, punching away at buttons, getting furious with Bowser, Dr. Wily, and those freakin' birds in Ninja Gaiden. Since then I have failed to get my parents to play any board game with me, I sold my full copy of Earthbound with box and guide for $300 to some dude in Austria for rent money, and I still believe in Nintendo even after all these years.
