BBC iPlayer planned for Wii U
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 2 Comments
BBC senior product manager Peter Lasko has confirmed the company’s plans to bring its iPlayer app to Wii U.
Sadly, Lasko wasn’t able to provide any specific details. He was only able to say that iPlayer will head to Wii U sometime “in the future”.
Lasko’s statement reads:
We follow a clear process so that we can get iPlayer onto devices in a scalable and maintainable way. We worked with Sony in this way for the PlayStation 4. We are working to bring BBC iPlayer to both Xbox One and Nintendo Wii U in the future, but we have no further details to share at this time. We have no immediate plans to bring BBC iPlayer to Apple TV or the PS Vita.
