Don't expect Deus Ex Wii U tweaks on other platforms

If you were one of the skeptics who scoffed at Deus Ex: Human Revolution being ported to the Wii U, well, quit all that scoffing, because the Director's Cut remake is looking pretty damn good. Sadly, if you were hoping for the revamped content such as graphical tweaks and improved boss fights to make it to existing versions of the game, it looks like that won't be happening.

Designer Emile Pedneault expressed hope in Deus Ex helping push Wii U sales in a statement to Penny Arcade. While that may not exactly happen, it was confirmed that the new content found in that particular version won't appear on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC iterations.

If you've never actually played Human Revolution but have been meaning to, maybe it'd be wise to pick up the Wii U version. If it's on par with the original releases and actually has improvements, I don't see why any adopters of Nintendo's current platform would do otherwise.
