If this rumor is indeed true and Retro have actually impressed Epic Games then this could be really good news for the Wii U, I just hope they are working on game engines and games at the same time, I don't want Retro to work on game engines alone, I want them to make Star Fox, F-Zero or a new IP.

Oh, I'm sure they are working on a game, after all the level designers, artists, writers and other staff at Retro must be doing something. And there's not better way to find out if the engine works than making use of it.

After doing some research I found that big game engines like CryEngine or Unreal Engine take 2-3 years to make (with a huge team, probably like 50 or more people), some may take longer, going by this I assume we should at least see some screenshots relatively soon.

There is a difference between those engines and the ones that Retro or other 1st party studios like NaughtyDog make: they one have to work for 1 console.
