In Assassin's Creed 3 (http://www.joystiq.com/game/assassins-creed-3), the Wii U's WiiPad will act as a link to the Animus, providing players a constant map and navigation tool, and displaying Animus database updates on the touchscreen without interrupting the main game,NintenGen (http://www.nintengen.com/2012/03/assassins-creed-3-new-wii-u-details.html) reports, via the latest issue of Nintendo Gamer. The Wii U's Animus integration will also provide character bios and act as an encyclopedia for the game's goings-on, making fact-checks for historical accuracy easier than ever. The above trailer isn't specific to the Wii U, but does show off some character and weapon descriptions that the Wii U is purported to support.

The Wii U will provide weapon-selection options, meaning the switch between dual-wielding and single-weapon combat will be a one-touch process. The WiiPad screen will also be an alternate view for Eagle Vision, allowing players to move the controller itself to search their surroundings.

Today we have a heap of new Assassin's Creed 3 information for your eagle eyes to devour; scavenge for the good bits right here (http://www.joystiq.com/game/assassins-creed-3).
