Sorry but nintendo's gaming market is different from the one Sony is in and different from the one that the big publishers are in. When it comes to platformers and kids games 3rd party makes sure to make a wii version and market it for the wii. The wii u is for people who want to play nintendo franchise games plus some 3rd party on the side. If publishers feel that making a wii u version of a game is a waste of time and money then whats it to you? The wii u is also weak and would be the lowest denominator when games move purely to next gen. UE 4 is a nextgen graphics engine which the wii u just won't be able to hande. Hopefully Nintendo realizes that next gen they have to accept making bigger losses on their hardware so they can sell a machine that is comparable to what the future wants. 


On a side note: yes, WiiU could handle UE4. It all boils down to wether they optimize it for the WiiU (Which they won't; that's the whole point of this thread and the other one) in order to make it functional or they don't.
