Epic are interested in the Wii U

The intrigue with the Wii U continues as Epic Games confirm that they are interested in the platform. In an interview with Industry Gamers, president of Epic Games, Mike Capps has said that they are interested in the Wii U even though they don’t have anything planned as of yet.

“We haven’t made an official announcement about that platform. And while we loved the Wii, it just wasn’t a fit to make a game that would go across Xbox 360, PS3 and the Wii. It just wasn’t possible. So going forward, we’re working with those folks and we’re very interested in the Wii U. At the launch event at E3, some of the products that you saw running on Wii U were based on Unreal Engine technology. So that kind of gives you an idea of where we are in that space. You can certainly use our engine on that platform – it’s a natural fit from a technology perspective,”
