Recently Co-founder of Epic was asked a question of wether Unreal Engine 4 will come to Wii U or not. here is what he had to say:

"Will UE4 run on the Wii U?"

"Hahaha no." Rein said, with expert comedic timing. The room erupted with laughter. As the laughs died down, Rein continued: "I mean, sorry, it's not really a correct answer. We're not we have Unreal Engine 3 for the Wii U. Right? And Unreal Engine 3 is powering all kinds of amazing games, still lots of games are being made with Unreal Engine 3. We announced today about a new Unreal Engine 3 license. Unreal Engine 3 doesn't disappear because of Unreal Engine 4. But our goal for Unreal Engine 4 console-wise is next-gen consoles. That's really what our energies are focused on. If you want to make a Wii U game, we have Unreal Engine 3, and it's powering some of the best games on the Wii U already.

"Nothing controversial, guys," he jokingly chided.

After that IGN if he could explain. Heres him trying to explain.

Still laughing, "I just laugh at the question...¦Unreal Engine 4, we're not PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, or Wii U. It's next-gen technology. That's what we're aiming for."
" The truth is, if a developer wanted to take an Unreal Engine game and put it on Wii U, they could. Unreal Engine 3 is kicking ass on Wii U. The best games on Wii U are made on our technology. What more do you want from us?"

So what do you think? Does is matter if its comming or not?

It's certainly not a good thing, but who buys Nintendo consoles for the 3rd Party games?

It'll be the Wii all over again, but without the good sales.

Now unless SSB4 Wii U is total perfection, I am never getting a Wii U. I will not buy a system with piss poor 3rd party support.

This thing has worse 3rd party support than the Wii did...it can't even get the next Madden, that's beyond pathetic.

@Screamer-Most of my 3DS games are 3rd party.

@Elite Aaaand decent developers will be wanting to take advantage of the new technology offered by UE4.
The secret shall be shared. PM for more info.

Just in, Wii U can do unreal 4 but Epic doesn't want to do it.
