Crysis 3 'not currently' in development for Wii U

4.6
It looks like Crysis 3 may not be coming to the Wii U after all, according to Crytek general manager Nick Button-Brown. "Just to answer the speculation, we are not currently working on a Wii U version of Crysis 3," reads a recent post on Button-Brown's Twitter account.

The news comes only a week after Crysis 3 producer Mike Read stated that Crytek was "working with Nintendo" and that a Wii U version was a "possibility." Alas, it sounds like your dreams of poking bad guys with your power-suited fingers via touch screen will have to wait.

Erm.. uh...

I guess they'd be holding it with one hand and waving the other.. :S


lol that would look pretty odd. I'd assume it'd be like the PSP with analog sticks and buttons.

yeah but the system will probably be a bust.


You never know, its not out yet :/

I'm not feeling confident in it though.


look at the Wii, the only fun thing on there is Wii Sports. and a handheld Wii seems ridiculous


Handheld Wii? Are you kidding me? I can't even imagine motion controls on the go.


lol that would be pretty funny seeing someone playing a motion game in public


It would, I'd laugh my **** off if I saw someone walking around waving their arms.


if they were waving their arms how would they be holding the device???

FTP i think this game would have some weird controls if it were on the WiiU.


Yeah, it would be really awkward. Nintendo isn't too good at first person shooters.
