It'll happen when it happens, keep in mind projects like these are hobby things done on devs' free time for a niche audience. It might take a bit.
from what I see someone was working on it but never released anything other than videos. Makes me somewhat doubtful as to their authenticity.
I'm sure i read they were simply streaming the game to the gamepad from pc. Shame, good game could do with a port.
Rubberduckycooly did release a Wii U branch on GitHub. However, there's no sign of a Wii U port yet.

IIRC, if you wanna compile it, you need to use Xcode and then do a few bits to get it working. There is a readme file teaching you how to set it up.
For now, keep an eye on their GitHub repo for any new commits/releases of their port.

That branch is really incomplete and won't compile.
Someone mentioned on their discord server that they stopped working on a Wii U port.
Oh that's a shame and understandable since they wanted to stop doing these decompilations altogether according to their GitHub page.
On a positive note, a user from the Sonic community, Clownacy, told me he might pick up where Rubberduckycooly left off and finish off the Wii U port of Mania since they did decompilation ports in the past to that console, Sonic CD being one they've done.

It actually can, Sonic Mania was just finished being decomped a day or two ago, and already ported to the Vita. Wii U should be right around the corner, hell someone that knows what they're doing could probably get it done today.
Anyway that Cuphead thing you're talking about was just a fan remake for the Wii U that didn't get very far, Cuphead itself has not been decompiled (yet anyway).

yeah i read that person who ported cuphead to wii u hasnt finished but it seems that his account has cloased i checked couple days ago
plus why didnt we have sonic the hedfehog 4 - 1 episode and 4 - 2 for sonic mania or sonic origin hmm?
Cuz no one is interested in decomping either episode of Sonic 4, though you can play episode 1 on the Wii U via Wiiware on the vWii.yeah i read that person who ported cuphead to wii u hasnt finished but it seems that his account has cloased i checked couple days ago
And again, that's not a port of Cuphead, it's just homebrew meant to replicate the game on the Wii U, which again didn't get very far.
good to see more stuff that are ported to Wii U. Im sure there is lot of hidden that we dont know what Wii U can do what Nintnedo is not showing us what Wii U can do else

Well... If someone already porting Sonic Mania and it seems to run fine for the most part, then it would definitely be possible to port SMBX to the Wii U using TheXTech code.
Beautiful.
I wish @JustJay was still around and this thread here https://gbatemp.net/threads/sonic-mania-on-wii-u-and-genesis-vc-console-on-wii-u.583535/ were still open so I could shove this all in his dumb face. He was talking down to me when I objected to his claim that Sonic Mania could never come to the Wii U, when i said it feasibly could, if it were to ever be decompiled. I did say not to hold their breath to the OP on the prospect, but in that regard I appear to be wrong to have suggested that even.

It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem. -

the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze -

There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.

@
Veho:
But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".

Veho:
Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.

Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need -
