Crysis 3 is not coming to the Wii U, for real this time

4.6
Crysis 3 is definitely not coming to the Wii U, Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli tells Digital Spy. In July Crytek hinted that a Wii U version of Crysis 3 was a possibility, but even that slim chance has since vanished.

"There has been discussions between Nintendo and EA and Crytek, but the bottom line is that there is that there's not enough business drive in it," Yerli says. "It's a business decision between EA and Nintendo. If that business decision doesn't make sense, or seems to not make sense for them, it's... not possible for us to make it. We can't publish ourselves, and that's the bottom line."

In August, Crytek general manager Nick Button-Brown had the opportunity to put down any Wii U rumors, but he hedged his phrasing, saying Crytek wasn't "currently" developing for Wii U. But if EA doesn't see money in the Wii U, that's the final nail in Crysis 3's touchscreen, NFC-enabled coffin.

DEEJAYstar46 I think it would be quite weird on the Wii U anyway.


I would have to agree.


why's that? using the pro controller would be the same as playing on the 360 with better graphics,don't see how it's wierd??

Don't people know it's a "Wii U" not a "Wii" and yes it has got better graphics than the 360 and PS3 also for those saying the Wii is rubbish,how come it outsold both the 360 and PS3 combined? Why? Because it'd fun to play,remeber fun? yes before COD? COD which also looks better on Wii U BTW.Can't believe the ignorance of people and yes i own all 4 consoles.

Lol ppl think its the graphics the Nintendo Wii was not that good but Nintendo has always delivered well they made one little mistake and now there down in the community make me a little mad the Wii U is fantastic plus ppl don't realize this is a console made in 2012! The graphics are really polished and smooth its an amazing console and ill be using the pro controller to play CoD no doubt.

L33t-Ninja-Much it wouldnt be able to hold the graphics prolly so yea


The only time i played the Wii was on guitar hero 3, and the graphics reminded me of the first playstation.


The Wii U has better graphics then the Xbox and Ps3 I own all 3 consoles and the Wii u looks the nicest. Although crysis 3 wouldn't work well with the touch screen.

It wouldn't be a great idea at all, they are better off sticking to the other platforms.
