Rumor: Sonic Generations Wii U possible, secondary Sonic title in the works for the console
Posted on September 11, 2011 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Wii U
SEGA has said outright that Sonic Generations isn’t coming to Wii. However, Nintendo has a much more powerful console launching next year that could certainly handle the project. So, would SEGA consider porting the title to Wii U?
Apparently it’s something that the company is thinking about. In order for it to happen, though, sales of the PlayStation 3/Xbox 360 version of the game will have to surpass their internal expectations. TSSZ says that, according to their source, a “secondary” game is in the works for the new console.
“Regarding the prospects of a Wii U Generations port, our source indicates Sega could prepare it for the system’s launch sometime next year, but only if sales of existing versions far exceed Sega’s internal expectations. Even if that doesn’t pan out, the source says there indeed is a Sonic in the works for the system, and it is likely another secondary title. If that holds, it would continue Sega’s strategy of keeping primary fare on XBOX 360 and PS3, while Nintendo consoles get their own unique games.”
