How much would it cost to licence the Unreal engine?

[Dolla Dolla]

They only license to professional game developers, as do many people who make middleware engines. And they cost serious money. You'd have to be independently wealthy to just license an engine from Unreal. I'd say at least 6 figures.

You'd be better off licensing the Wii dev kit, but you'd still have to be a professional developer and have about 20Gs to waste.
