Kojima is weighing up the idea of bringing Metal Gear Solid to Wii U.

At last year's unveiling of the Nintendo 3DS many fans were pleasantly surprised to see Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D announced. With this week's announcement of the Nintendo Wii U Eurogamer has asked creative producer Yoshikazu Matsuhana if they're considering bringing a Metal Gear Solid game out on Wii U.

Mr. Matsuhana says they were approached by Nintendo a while ago and have been in discussion with them regarding their new console. While he admits they probably won't have anything available for launch he says that they are "very much thinking about possibilities with the Wii U" and adds that he thinks it is "a very fun system".

He goes on to say that public opinion is important and will play a role in the deciding process. "We're also looking at the public reaction. If there are enough people who say they want us to bring something to the Wii U that also factors into things." When pressed for information as to whether Metal Gear Solid 5 would be released on the Wii U he simply said it was top secret.
