SEGA has confirmed that Aliens: Colonial Marines won’t be running on Wii U at this year’s E3. It should be playable on other platforms, however, such as the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

Aliens: Colonial Marines received a February 12, 2013 release date today. While one would have thought that the Wii U version would arrive on the same day as the PS3, 360, and PC editions, the fact that it won’t be playable on Nintendo’s new console is concerning. It’s possible that the Wii U title won’t be ready until mid-2013 – we can only speculate for now.

Aliens: Colonial Marines technically became a real “thing” six years ago. An announcement about the new game was made in 2006 once 20th Century Fox, SEGA, and Gearbox came to an agreement.

However, it wasn’t until 2008 that we actually saw got a first look at Colonial Marines. So even though it may seem as though the title has been in the works for an extremely long time, developer Gearbox believes its development cycle is comparable to that of Borderlands and the original Brothers in Arms, some of the studio’s previous projects.

Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford commented on the seemingly lengthy dev cycle for Aliens: Colonial Marines today:

If you haven’t visited the site within the past 48 hours, perhaps you didn’t hear that the Wii U controller we see at E3 2012 will be slightly different than the model we saw last year. You can read about that here.

Update: Just to be clear, SEGA/Gearbox haven’t confirmed the Wii U version for February 12, but I can’t imagine it arriving later than the PS3/360/PC versions considering the console will be released by then.

Aliens: Colonial Marines won’t be out until February 12, 2013, meaning the PS3, 360, PC, and Wii U versions should all arrive on the same day.

There wasn’t a ton of shocking news on GameTrailers’ latest Bonus Round episode, but Shane Satterfield once again said people will be surprised with the Wii U’s launch lineup and the amount of games in development for the system – that applies to both first and third-party software.

Now that we’ve had a day to recover from the Wii U controller leak, let’s take a look at a comparison showing the differences between the E3 2011 model and the one we saw yesterday:

Quite a good comparison, no?

Update: Original Twitter account has been shut down. Hmmm…

The image above comes from a QA tester over at TT Games, who posted the image above to his Twitter account.

While not an extreme makeover, it does show quite a few new things. Most significant is the addition of analog sticks that have been substituted for circle pads – a much welcomed change. The layout of some buttons have been shifted around as well.

What do you think? Do you prefer the (slightly) new design?

Thanks to Jake for the tip.
