Despite earlier reports that they would be slowing down their Wii U support, Ubisoft Senior VP of Sales and Marketing Tony Key reiterated his company's support of the console in a recent interview with Gamasutra. "We continue to believe that the Wii U will find its audience," he stated,  "We're confident that the Wii U is a good place for us to do business, and we can make money there."

Key then referenced the selection of launch titles Ubisoft had provided for the console, saying "We did not take a big risk with all those launch titles on Wii U." He explained that "development isn't expensive," and that "the system isn’t as resource-intensive to make games for." For ports of multiplatform games, he talked about how "some Wii U games are versions of games for other platforms, like Assassin's Creed. And we continue to invest in that system."

Along with Assassin's Creed IV:Black Flag, Ubisoft also has other major fall releases slated for the Wii U, including Rayman Legends, Splinter Cell: Blacklist, and Watch Dogs.  According to Key, Ubisoft has "just as many titles coming on Wii U this year as we did after launch."
