Doesn't really surprise me since Black Ops 2 hit the Wii U. I say we welcome these titles over to the console. The more the merrier.

Just checked out the website and dang, doesn't look so plausible from that page.

But still, I could see a scaled back version of Battlefield appearing.

I think it is most definitely certain that there will be versions on current gen, considering install base. If that is the case a wii u version wouldn't be out of the cards.
 
So I'm guessing the wiiU version will have a lot of the limitations that the PS360 version of BF3 had compared to PC. Better than nothing if it's the only console you own though.

Assuming this is true.

yes probabaly. Off tv play bf4 would be pretty sweet. And maybe the definitive current gen version?

probably retail error or maybe it will be on current and next gen. that way EA can easily down port the 360/ps3 version to wiiU.


Edit: it makes me sad that there will be current gen versions. Bf3 PC suffered due to all the limitations consoles brought. Now next gen is right around the corner and they're neutering the game again.

it has to be on both the consoles. they aren't going to let their sales momentum slide. anyone predicting orbis/durango/PC exclusive is dreaming big time. makes no business sense.

I wouldn't be too surprised either, popular games and all. Just seems like an attention scam/ money "laundering" at the moment though..

wasnt ps3/360 versions listed in those chinese forum rumors? And werent those rumors turning out to be more or less possible true?

Again, I would be really surprised if there are no current gen versions of BF4, considering install base.

So, I assume it will look dramatically better than 360/ps3 version in a side by side comparison?

Zmart? Are they Kmart's doppelganger?

It's a Chilean store which i sometimes buy stuff from, they are expensive compared to the other national stores but they sell all kinds of weird stuff. So fucking crazy seeing them mentioned on gaf.
 
The Wii U could benefit from this. I wouldn't be surprised if this was true. There seemed to be a lot of pressure after they showed a clip of BF3 at E3. EA needs to make good on that unprecedented support nonsense.

BF3 looked and ran great. I don't see how it suffered at all. The stuff that got blamed on the consoles (like no commander mode) were just design decisions that people didn't agree with.

BF3 is releasing PC, PS3, 360, WiiU, PS4 and Nextbox. It was always known.

PS3, 360 and WiiU versions are scaled down.

Too be fare, all console versions will most likely be scaled down compared to the PC version, unless they make the PC version on par with the PS4/720 version.

Wii U has alot more RAM to work with though. So much so, it can do 64 players apparently.

just stumbled across this old article from Aug 2012. site is banned however.

WiiuDaily said:
Back at E3 2011, one of the game showcased during a Wii U trailer by Nintendo was Battlefield 3. Which of course more or less confirmed a Battlefield 3 game in development for the Wii U. That was back then. We haven’t heard anything concrete for more than a year, other than developer DICE saying they “see potential” in the Wii U.

Battlefield 4 Wii UNow our source from EA tells us that EA and DICE did in fact start working on a Battlefield 3 Wii U version with help from EA Canada, testing out the possibilities with the GamePad controller. However, that project was shelved when EA and Nintendo had a feud regarding Origin’s integration on the Wii U. This supposedly happened in late 2011, and the team that worked on the Wii U version of BF3 was merged into the team that is currently working on Battlefield 4. Battlefield 4 was confirmed a few weeks ago and will be coming in 2013.

According to our sources, the Battlefield 4 team is now working on the Battlefield 4 Wii U version concurrently with other editions and will be a “straight port” with touchscreen controls. Most of these touchscreen controls and features are said to be available on other platforms as well (Xbox 360 SmartGlass etc.). It’s unknown whether the team is also working on next gen systems. Our source also told us that the Battlefield 4 name is not final and might change in the future.

Battlefield 4 is expected to launch in Fall 2013, with a beta release sometime in the Spring.

I don't know if this means anything but BF3 performance on PC is almost completely GPU dependent. No difference between a stock Phenom II X4 and an overclocked i7 with the same GPU.

Wrong info. The only real leak is the Chinese leak. There's a thread about it here; google it.

???, I already mentioned the Chinese blog rumors earlier in this thread. also not sure how this can outright be labeled as wrong info?(other than just being more rumors) This seems to be from before those blog rumors.

IIRC, the Chines blog rumors made no mention of WiiU
