Another developer ditches the Wii

July 30th, 2006 by Kit Allen

More miserable news fron the Wii Battlefront as developer Relic announce their stance regarding the Wii in an interview.

You mentioned the 360 and the PS3 there, but not the Wii - why is that?

We make more mature-rated games, and more high-end graphical games, and the Wii is going in a little bit of a different direction; they’re not going to play the same game as the 360 and the PS3. You never know - if we came up with something cool we could do it, but right now our plan is not to. THQ is big into that, because we’ve got Pixar, we’ve got Spongebob, we’ve got all that, and the other studios will be doing amazing stuff, but not Relic.

Is it simply a creative decision not to support the Wii, then?

It’s creative, and you can’t do the same types of games on the Wii because the power is a lot different. It’s a different type of technology. I think it was really smart for Nintendo to break out on their own and do their own thing. The platform’s going to be really successful.

Wii got owned.. again.
