Team Ninja Will Consider Dead or Alive 5 for Wii U

In an interview with Siliconera, Yohei Shimbori, director of Dead or Alive 5, spoke about the upcoming fighter to be released on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 this September.

The first and only game in the series to appear on a Nintendo platform came last year with Dead or Alive Dimensions, but this could mark the first time a numbered entry comes to a Nintendo home console.

When questioned on whether DOA5 would come to Wii U, Shimbori had this to say:

Right now, we’re doing our best to get the game ready for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. After players get their hands on Dead or Alive 5 we want to hear what they think and based on that we’ll see if we should make a Wii U version.

With Team Ninja also bringing an updated version of Ninja Gaiden 3 to Wii U, it might not be out of the question for the latest Dead or Alive to see release on the console at some point, too.
