People continue to ask Bethesda about potential support for Wii U, but the answer doesn’t change. It’s the same as it always has been: the console just isn’t in the publisher’s plans.

Once again, Bethesda’s current slate – The Elder Scrolls Online, Wolfenstein: The New Order, and The Evil Within aren’t coming to Wii U.

Bethesda VP of PR and marketing Pete Hines explained to Joystiq that the lack of support is “largely a hardware thing.” As far as whether the company will bring titles to Wii U in the future, Hines said: “I can’t say for sure, in our near-term focus it’s not on our radar.”

“None of the game’s we’ve announced are being developed for the Wii U, so it’s guaranteed that none of those games are coming to Wii U. Will any future ones come out? I can’t say for sure, in our near-term focus it’s not on our radar.”

“It’s largely a hardware thing. (Bethesda’s mantra is to) make the games that we want to make, on whatever platforms will support them as developed.”

Hines added that “it remains to be seen what the future holds.”
