Scott Walters of Vooks.net recently caught up with Tom Crago of developer Straight Right, the team working on the Wii U version of Bioware's hit game Mass Effect 3. Crago described the Wii U as "powerful" and said it is very easy to develop for. He also revealed that the Wii U port will run in 720p but will be hardware upscaled to 1080p.
Vooks: “Hey hows it going. I’m a huge fan of all things Nintendo and WiiU, and as an Australian its fantastic to see an Aussie developer porting Mass Effect 3. Firstly I’d like to know how the Wii U has been to work with?"
Crago: "We’ve really enjoyed working on the Wii U. It’s a powerful, versatile machine and fairly painless to code for. From an architecture standpoint it’s straightforward and really just allows developers to get down to the business of making games. Certainly it’s different by design to the PS3 and 360 but pound for pound it compares very favorably."
Vooks: "Will the WiiU port of Mass Effect 3 will be running at 1080p native, or will it be upscaled at all?"
Crago: "Mass Effect 3 will run at 720p, hardware upscaled to 1080p. It’s the same resolution as the original versions on PS3 and 360."
