GN Version 4.0
Now that EA is working on the Wii U, we can get back to telling you about how most of their games aren't coming to the system. Today's game to skip over Wii U is Need for Speed: Rivals. The reason given for the skip was the Frostbite engine. Here's what Rivals producer Marcus Nilsson had to say to Eurogamer.

"Yeah, Frostbite is not really set up for Wii U. I don't have all the information, so it wouldn't be right for me to speak about it. Frostbite 3 is a really capable engine, it's scalable and it gives us a big advantage on the next generation to support the Xbox One and the PS4, but it's not being developed on the Wii U."
