Despite what Nintendo would likely call its own best efforts, the Wii U has struggled to attract third-party game makers. Some developers might tell you thatās because the Wii U is underpowered, but Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli told a different story to VentureBeat this week.

When asked about the Nintendo console, Yerli offered up the following:
We did have Crysis 3 running on the Wii U. We were very close to launching it. But there was a lack of business support between Nintendo and EA on that. Since we as a company couldnāt launch on the Wii U ourselvesāwe donāt have a publishing licenseāCrysis 3 on Wii U had to die.
Itās a shame when games fall victim to the politics of business, which sounds like what happened. But if the Wii U can indeed run the technically impressive Crysis 3, who knows what else is possible on Nintendoās latest system?
