Although they won’t be announcing their plans for the Wii U anytime soon, Activision has confirmed the Call of Duty Publisher will support Nintendo’s next-gen platform. “We take our time to get our ducks in a row before pulling any trigger. We don’t have announcements today but we will be supporting Wii U,” Activision publishing boss Eric Hirshberg told GI.biz. “I think it’s interesting to think about all the platforms. Just in general, that’s part of my job as a studio head, working with Activision on assessing where our creative can live. How can people experience it? “We obviously have been a Nintendo developer for many years and have created many Call of Duty games on the Nintendo platform. [Wii U] is clearly a more powerful platform than its predecessor and… they have obviously a unique controller and interface.” 
“So that’s an interesting development and then they have that touch display device and you think about the kinds of things you might be able to do and—without getting into specifics—I absolutely have given it consideration and thought. We’re game developers and it’s a new piece of hardware and technology, so we’re always thinking about that stuff,” he concluded. The latest issue of Nintendo Power had seemingly confirmed that a Wii U version of Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 was in development. Developer Treyarch, however, has refused to talk about a possible version of the shooter on the platform. By Zak Islam |
