A Hat in Time already reaches Kickstarter goal, will “do everything to get on the Wii U”

Just a day after it began, A Hat in Time has managed to reach its Kickstarter goal. Close to $35,000 has been raised, and there’s still 28 days to go.
A Hat in Time’s developer has also addressed the topic of a Wii U version once again. While it’s something that is very much wanted, the game engine currently doesn’t support Nintendo’s console with its current license. That being said, they’ll “do everything to get on the Wii U”, and there’s still hope to include the system during the Kickstarter period.
A lot of you are asking why we aren’t adding Wii U as a stretch goal, and to be honest, we really want to! But unfortunately, despite the Nintendo eShop’s ability to self-publish, our game engine does not support Wii U with the license that we have!
That is why we might need help getting the game on other platforms than Windows and Mac! As you can hear, it is quite a rut we’re in, but we’ll definitely let you know when we are ready to support Wii U! We really want to make it possible during the Kickstarter period! Rest assured that we’ll do everything to get on the Wii U!
Thanks to KIDNINTENDO for the tip.
