Mark Rein speaks Wii

Epic’s Mark Rein, previously the subject of much controversy surrounding his comments on the Wii, recently spoke about the console in an interview with website CVG.

Speaking in regards to the company’s current plans for the system, Rein stated that “I can tell you that we’re not doing, internally any development right now on the Wii. The Wii I’m sure is going to be a fantastic machine and sell really well but it’s kind of below - it’s not Intel integrated graphics but it’s pretty far bellow the kind of min-bar of Unreal Engine 3.”

“If you built a PC with that spec it wouldn’t really be capable of playing an Unreal Engine 3 games decently. They’re aiming at clearly at different audience that what we are”, he continued.
