NetherRealm Studios Creative Director and Co-Creator of Mortal Kombat, Ed Boon sat down and discussed his interest in the upcoming Nintendo, Wii U with Gametrailers:

“When thinking about the Wii U and controller, I would like to think we will do something innovative and cool. We are all very excited. Whenever there is new hardware we start to think on a bigger scale. When you see that screen and controller in there, to me things start connecting in terms of what we can do with our game, enhancing the experience.”

This wouldn't be the first time Mortal Kombat has platformed over, the Wii U's predcessor the Wii had a port of MK: Armageddon on it which included much demanded kombatant Khameleon who was omitted from the Xbox and Playstation 2 versions. Whilst this doesn't confirm that we will see a Mortal Kombat title on the Wii U, feel contented that interest is being expressed from NetherRealm Studios.

The Wii U is an upcoming Next-Generation console featuring Full-HD graphics, a revolutionary touch-integrated controller and precision motion controls amongst other innovative specifications. More news on this story once it becomes available!
