I think the "next-gen" in the job listing doesn't necessarily mean that it's based on a PS4/X1 games, it could simply mean that it's on a 8th gen platform.


A Portal game on Wii U could be great with reworked puzzles for dual-screen play (1 player) or local coop on both screens.

The Puzzle Maker is simple enough to work on the GamePad.

And they also searched for people with Wii experience, Wii Remote + Nunchuk controls for one player in coop would be nice, too.

Gabe Newell said some positive things about the Wii U a few years ago and he likes Nintendo games.

Newell also said good things about the Wii, and yet they never ported a game to it, not even Half Life 2 which was on the original Xbox.



Please excuse my bad English.

PS4 has a more advanced GPU though.

It has more horsepower but the tools (like shaders and open gl) are the same.

How do we know though? The Wii U GPU is still not a known quantity, we can only go off what devs tells us and games show.

It'd be pretty hilarious if their port from Wii U to PS4/Xbone was their own IP, Funky Barn. Probably more likely to be Devil's Third or ZombiU though.

I dont think it will be Devils Third, i think Nintendo have funded it and it is advertised as only on Wii U when you see the trailers. Zombi U on the other hand i can totally see going to the clones.

Now that I think of it though, wouldn't a ZombiU port be done in-house by Ubi, since they have a ton of studios?

Those tools are absolute. open gl equivalent of DX 11 is the same everywhere.

Except we don't know if Wii U is a direct match for DX11, just that it has some DX10 and DX11 features. The exact specs of Wii U's GPU have not been confirmed, so we can only guess.

But devs already confirmed the DX11 equivalent, even if the rest of the gpu is unkown to us.

Having some DX11 features may not be the same thing as being a full DX11 equivalent.
