I am surprised they actually said it was coming to the Wii U.

Curious. I mean awesome but curious. Why Wii U and Kinect? Can you play the game without the Kinect sensor? If not then how does it work on Wii U?

Kinect exclusives usually don't mix well and unless Wii U has some hidden Kinect functionality then I don't see why it couldn't come to Xbox like usual and PS3 as well.

Haha, maybe it's just a Wii U game they've dumbed down for the 360 so they can take advantage of the Kinect. That's a role reversal.

You bring up a good point.

Wow this Avengers thing is really getting overhyped. I hear and see about it all the day, it occupies a certain website that was supposed to be funny, really it's getting on my nerves. I like Marvel, but still..
No sig.

I for one love all the hype, and think it's fine on 9gag (I saw you were missing your soul, dont worry, me too)

But that's a story for another day. I'm surprised they didnt have a game ready to be released with the movie, but maybe this is to tie us over until the second movie is released? A bridge game?

But then again why just Wii U and kinect? If it was using motion plus then it would make sense to put it on PS3 with move support. Its something different from the PS3 but similar enough for kinect. Its something the Wii U and kinect has but PS3 doesn't. What could it be?

I remember reading in one Iwata Asks segment with Miyamoto on the Wii U that they had the idea of using the camera on the controller for body tracking in a Wii Fit type game; but the camera on the controller looks like it's just a simple web camera.

Here's he answer for no move port. True playstation move is dead, the little to almos no first party support of it is pretty obvious that in the eyes of Sony it is dead hardware. With that being said if Sony barely cares about it why should any other developer?

And I'm pretty sure the reason it wasn't saved for an e3 announcement is that it will likely be ago shovelware if its not I will be surprised. That and apparently ubisoft is allowed complete freedom regarding anything wii u related.

That does seem very likely. Now then how about those Wii U ports that WE/I actually want.

Loved the movie, liked the Marvel: Ultimate Alliance games. I think this wasn't released with the film to avoid the negative perception "movie games" have these days... its an original story apparently so hopefully its a solid game for our Wii U libraries.

I know SEGA didn't really put much effort into the other Marvel action games they made, but I would prefer another mediocre SEGA game over this. But hey, atleast we can thank Ubisoft for the maximum support for the Wii U.

That's a good point.

Could it be because the Move has done so poorly?

Pretty much anything based on the Avengers is worth my attention right now.
I'm still in high-spirits because of that bloody awesome movie!
