Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford has explained why the developer is bringingAliens: Colonial Marines to Wii U, but not its hugely successful Borderlands games.
"We get asked if there is going to be a Wii U version of Borderlands," he told GamesMaster."The reason why there's not is because we couldn't think of a natural, obvious, 'OMG, I want that for what the Wii U brings to the table' feature."
This, however, was not the case with Aliens.
"But with Aliens, the first thing we thought was 'Holy $#@!, 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."
