Watch Dogs Wii U Lacks Screenshot Support

One of Ubisoft’s latest open world games, Watch Dogs, was recently released for the Nintendo Wii U after a long delay from its initial release on other consoles. From what we have seen online so far, it doesn’t actually look too bad… however, it seems to lack a certain feature. The ability to post screenshots to Miiverse.

According to users on Miiverse, the game doesn’t allow you to attach screenshots from the game in Miiverse posts, you can’t even upload them to the Nintnedo Image Sharing website using the Internet browser.

There is currently no word from Ubisoft on why they have disabled this feature, but we will update you all if there is.

Have you played Watch Dogs for Wii U? If so, what do you think of it? Tell us in the comments below!
