NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!



The idiocy has already begun!!! :( Can't they understand that it's not because a console sports a secondary screen that they have to use it? Did they have to use kinect when making it on the 360? ...... Obviously No.

Why the double standards, this is getting ridiculous for heaven sakes? I want to slap them.

Their reasoning is a bit...sketchy lol


Well yeah, if you take it out of context like padib did in his post and ignore their primary reasoning, which is that the Wii U was announced too late in the development cycle of the game. Perfectly sound reasoning...


Besides, it's up to them what platforms they develop their game for. If they don't want to develop on Wii or Wii U that's up to them - Wii U will get better support than Wii did, but it won't be as comprehensively supported as Sony and MS's platforms, and people are deluding themselves if they think it will. If you want to play all these 3rd party games then you have to buy a console they're actually made for, just as people do for 1st party games. Simple as that.

I understand Machina... I don't see why you're bashing the post above, they can choose to develop for whatever platform they want, of course you're right! But what I'm saying is that the reason they offered is not honest and makes me discontent.

Remember Machina, he offered two reasons:

KS: “At this time no. When we started developing the game we made a conscious decision that:

1) it was all about building the game for a platform and making sure the game was specific to that platform.

2) Given that we’ve been working on the game quite a while before Wii U was announced I think it would not be right to try and port it across.

Back to 1) If we started building a game for the Wii U we would build it very differently and we would build it with unique functionality.”

For point 2), you know like I do that timed exclusives exist, in this occurence exclusive to the HD twins, then ported onto Wii U. The definitive No here is what bothers me.

For "Back to 1)", it's clear he is referring to the Wii U tablet. Why would that matter if it won't even use Kinect or Move in my understanding? It just seems dishonest, that's all I'm saying.
