Aliens: Colonial Marines Wii U Release Down to SEGA on Nintendo gaming news, videos and discussion

Twiddling thumbs for the of Aliens: Colonial Marines on Wii U? It's all down to publisher SEGA, according to Gearbox's Randy Pitchford.

After the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC release was critically panned across the board and subject to questions about its development, it's left the Wii U version in limbo. With a release for the Demiurge Studios' developed Wii U version uncertain, it seems the decision making is now left in the hands of SEGA.

"We'll see. That's not our call. I think [developer Demiurge Studios] did amazing work. I think it's really cool, but Sega's got to figure that out. We're doing the best we can."

The game was originally planned to hit the Wii U's launch period, which ends in just over a week. Time to get cracking with the Aliens packing, SEGA.

Would you grab hold of a copy of Aliens: Colonial Marines  if released on Nintendo Wii U?

Wait what?! I thought this did get released for Wii U? What the hell...?

It is not wise to speak on subjects you do not know all facts about, nor is it smart to judge a game based on looks alone. PSN: Nintendo_Gamer 3DS: 4296-3029-7422

It was always slated to release later than the other versions, with Sega stating many times that it would be out in the Wii U's launch window, but other than that no info has been given.

They might as well wrap things up and release it, can't do any harm really.

Yeah, are they worried about their reputation at this point? Just release it.

SEGA probably doesn't want to after the reception of the other versions.

However, this version was being developed by the other developer and reportedly closer to what was promised for the other versions.

Time to scrap it and move on. Forget about that game and it's immense failure.

They'd probably lose more money to be fair. As far as I know they've already developed it, but the crushing reviews on it's brethren won't hold up well in the market place. It's a game that the Wii U could probably do without. 

As LinkyShinks said, forget about it and move on, there's nothing to see here.

Amazing that even now he's still talking up the WiiU game, does he not know when to stop, or perhaps he thinks the WiiU game will vindicate what he's always said about it. He must be either completely mad or right about the WiiU game being superior. At least we find out next week.
