Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford has explained why the developer is bringingAliens: Colonial Marines (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/nintendo-wii-u/fps/12650/aliens-colonial-marines/) to Wii U, but not its hugely successful Borderlands games.

This, however, was not the case with Aliens.
"But with Aliens, the first thing we thought was 'Holy shit, I can have a motion controller in my hands!' When it's there in my lap it feels like I'm part of the movie."
