Nintendo - Wii U Ports? - View Post

The situation will be worse with games developed specifically around UE4, not better, if publishers can't even bother to port games that are of UE3-engine quality to the Wii U. 

You're not really helping your arguement by going down that road at all. 

I mean for crying out loud, Konami won't even give Platinum Games (one of the Wii U's most notable developers) the greenlight to port MGS Rising to the Wii U. I'm sure all these other third parties out of the goodness of their heart are going to make Wii U such a priority that they force their limited dev staffs to jump through 50 hoops to get a game designed for the PS4/720/high end PC to barely run on a Wii U. Yup. This seems plausible to me. 

MGR:R began development in early 2009.   Way before Platinum games ever even heard of Wii U much less owned enough final dev kits to develop a Wii U version.  In fact, PG didn't get to work on the game itself until late 2011.   And once they did get enough Wii U dev kits, what happened?  2 exclusives.
