With Overhaul Games already developing a version of the recently announced Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition for the iPad (in addition to planned PC and Mac versions), it would almost seem like a no-brainer for the developer to port a version over to Nintendo's upcoming, tablet-sporting Wii U as well. But as Overhaul's Trent Oster tweeted late last night, "We don't do Nintendo development. Our previous experience with Nintendo was enough to ensure there will not be another."
