This information comes from id Software president Todd Hollenshead, who spoke about Wii U…

“I haven’t really had a chance to sit down with [John] Carmack about it, because it’s his opinion that matters. From what Nintendo is saying, [the Wii U] looks interesting, but it still remains to be seen how it fits within how id Tech 5 would run on it, is the audience right for us to develop games on that platform.”

Hollenshead was also asked about the possibility of Rage on Wii…

“For Rage, as much as Nintendo might not like to hear this, id Tech 5 is too much tech for the Wii. We’re not doing a crappy version of Rage on the Wii. If you play the PC, the PS3, the 360 version, you get all of it. All the media’s the same. We didn’t make the crippled version that somebody wishes they had some other platform to play on.”

Well, ultimately I have to agree with Hollenshead that it wouldn’t be the best idea to bring Rage to Wii. At this point, I doubt it’d even sell much. Who says that it’d be crappy though just because it’s on Wii? id Software could technically create a new Rage experience for the platform, although that’d be a lot of work…

More details regarding Activision’s plans for Modern Warfare 3 on Nintendo platforms are continuing to trickle out. First, some details about the Wii version…

– Looking to launch the game on the same day as other version
– Not completely confirmed that it’ll arrive on November 8 it is a different platform with different capabilities; still some work to do
– Much of Modern Warfare 3 will fit into the Wii
– May have some differences
– Multiplayer will (obviously) be in the game

Now, here’s something that’s interesting. n-Space is supposedly working on a DS edition of Modern Warfare 3. Yes, DS, not 3DS. It’s a good thing we’ll be seeing Modern Warfare 3 on a Nintendo portable at all, since there were previous reports that n-Space would be taking a break this year.
