It's not the same thing. Unreal Engine 3 is on mobile too right? But you don't see Gears of War on mobile......

The thing with Wii U is that it is way above those mobile requirements but below the console requirements. So its stuck in this awkard middle position.


Let me get this right.   UE4 will be on PC, PS4, Next X, mobile, tabelts and browsers but not Wii U because of some irrational middle range?

Yes. Using Gears of War as an example, that game is made to run on Xbox 360 using Unreal Engine 3. If Epic wanted to, I"m sure they could have downported the game to PS2 or Xbox but it doesn't make sense for their vision of the game.(Ignore the fact that Microsoft and Epic had some kind of exclusivity agreement)
