I don't thin Assassin's Creed III's release date as any impact on the Wii U's release date. You didn't see people saying it would come out in August because that is when Darksiders II came out. I still think November 18 (the Sunday before Black Friday, their traditional release date for GCN/Wii/DS) is most likely for North America. Europe and Oceania in early to mid December. Japan maybe late November.
