Forums - Nintendo - NFS Rivals not coming to WiiU

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2013-05-23-how-far-cry-3-and-uk-racing-veterans-are-helping-bring-need-for-speed-to-the-next-generation

 

There won't, however, be a Wii U version of Need for Speed Rivals, and Nilsson is sticking to the company line that the Frostbite engine doesn't play nice with Nintendo's console. "Yeah, Frostbite is not really set up for Wii U. I don't have all the information, so it wouldn't be right for me to speak about it. Frostbite 3 is a really capable engine, it's scalable and it gives us a big advantage on the next generation to support the Xbox One and the PS4, but it's not being developed on the Wii U."

>Wii U can't handle Frostbite
>Coming to all current-gen consoles
>EA isn't making Wii U games.

Why...why are we surprised?



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Because it isnt coming out for PC either.

Admittadly I didn't realise it wasn't coming for PC. That's the real big news here if true.

However, the IGN article claims there is a PC version on its way.

The power of not announcing for Wii-U.

Not announcing a platform > announcing a whole game.

The only people who would be interested in something like that would be in the Vita thread, and I think even they don't care.



Okey, that was not what Alex Ward said.

Future iterations of Need for Speed on Wii U should see a same-day release as the other consoles, Ward told me, since the studio now knows the hardware. "Fantastic hardware [the Wii U], I love it," Ward ended. "It really got me back into Nintendo software."

Does anyone else not find his quote- "fb3 is scalable" a bit contadictory? If it was so capable and scalable, why is not coming to wiiu?
