Nintendo - Wii U Ports? - View Post

Can someone put this to rest.

If Epic refuses to port their engine onto wiiu, or use their engine --whatever the 'term' is... How are any games that use UE4 going to make it onto wiiu? They aren't... that's what I'm taking away from this announcement. I'm not interested in the minutia of "how it can possibly happen in the foreseeable future" I'm interested in the FACTS.

If EPIC has refused to allow their engine onto wiiu --that means that no future UE4 game will make it onto the platform. So nintendo's only hope is to either pay out, or hope UE4 isn't licensed by many developers?

Epic allows UE4 on WiiU (why not), but they refuse to port it themself.

The situation is similar to the Wii, I'm not surprised that this happens. it would be surprising, if UE4 was ported.

Although it might be a clever move for Nintendo to port UE4 themself or pay Epic to do it. But I think they prefer to point developers to their own devkit and tools included.
