“I like the Wii U. I think E3 will be a big eye-opener for people.

“I played Batman: Arkham City on the Wii U and they are doing some really cool stuff with the controller.

“Do you remember the Zelda demo they had on it? Would you not buy a Wii U just to play that? Of course you would. That’s what Nintendo is all about. Their hardware is the software delivery service for their great content. That Zelda demo was gorgeous and we can do even more than that with Unreal Engine 3. I think it will do great.”

“It’s a great brand that a lot of parents really trust and they’re probably ready to buy their kids an HD Wii that does that much more than just being an HD Wii.

“I’d love it if they’d done it last year, but I’m excited for them to do it this year. I’d be shocked if it doesn’t do well.

“Did you play that Battle Mii game? Two players would play with a Wii Remote and Nunchuk and one would play with the Wii U controller?

“I would buy a Wii U to play that game in a heartbeat. And I hope people make those kind of games with our technology. I think we’ve yet to really see what the Wii U can do and I think at E3 this year they’re going to shock us.”

Super Excited for E3:D.

look if this guy is saying this, we're set, seriously, it just makes sense now that we can all rest assured that the wii u has been future proofed for next gen :) not necessarily the power house, but its gonna get the UE4 multiplats im sure :)

great day to be happy about the wii u, almost all concerns put to rest, all i want know is an improved controller layout

"An eye-opener."

I can barely hold in my excitement any longer. SOMETHING is going to happen E3 that nobody was expecting, that will completely astound us and blow the competition out of the water.

I kinda wish he didn't say this, because the wait for E3 is going to kill me.

That's good, but I'll make up my own mind.

Interesting that the article also states they've got no titles in development for the Wii U.

Don't quote me on this but I think it was confirmed they are working on something for the Wii U, not 100% sure though so.

It sounds overall good but that got me worried.

It kind of implies that they're only really considering UE3 on Wii U, rather than "real" next gen tech. But then if UE3 is able to be pushed as far as they say it is, then UE4 might not even arrive until around the next-next gen.

Why?.

WIth the guys at Unreal saying stuff like Next gen is going to be using unreal 4 and stuff and but than a couple of day or so later Mark starts talking about the wiiu and unlike the other consoles(next gen will be using Unreal 4) he just said pretty much "Oh yeah the wiiu will do Unreal engine 3 great " which felt like it almost was ment as a insult even though I assume its the most advance version of unreal engine 3.

I Just wished he did a nudge at Wiiu being able to run Unreal engine 4 I mean I know they probably can't even revel yet what runs Unreal engine 4 but it just bugs me its like if He was talking about the 360 a couple months before it launches and says "Oh yeah it will be able to run Unreal engine 2 just fine " But I do know that the Unreal engine 4 I think just got official confirmed less than a week ago or so it just feels like he poking fun at us especially since Unreal engine 3 is now because of UE4 going to be mainly focused on Phone gaming with the PC and consoles doing Unreal engine 4.

dude ur too sceptical, i dont know what it will take to convince u, these people arent going to spoil their E3 performances just cos u cant imagine wii u being real next gen, when they say they are delighted and think its going to succeed, then it will. how many times do developers have to say its powerful before u are satisfied?

I just think Mark saying that was bad timing I would have Liked him to say it works good on our software instead mainly because I know he doesn't like Nintendo from my memories which could be positive that he likes something from Nintendo but some of the stuff he said in that interview like "I would buy the wiiu just for battle mii" who knows maybe his opinion has changed on Nintendo or who knows.I'm normally happy with good news I just don't like the way he responded.
