A bit more realistically:
A well-done WiiU port of Civilization V, Anno 2070, a Total War or The Settlers game, or the upcoming XCOM remake could be a great addition. Or how about a new SimCity with real devotion in development (it would be about time...). Generally western TBS, RTS and economic sims.

I thought the Wii was going to get more strategy games thanks to the IR, let's see if the tablet does it now.

The Wii got its own Anno game (called Dawn of Discovery in NA), it got its own SimCity version called SimCity Creator, but that's about it as far as I know.

In the meantime the 360 got Tropico 3/4, Civilization Revolution (not a "real" Civ game in my book but anyway), R.U.S.E., TC'S EndWar, several Command & Conquer ports, two Lord of the Rings RTS games and it will get Port Royale 3 this year. Some of these games are also on PS3. These strategy games were only released on 360 or PS3 because they are HD systems like the PC, the controls were certainly not the reason.

It will be interesting to see if these PC games will go to WiiU from now on as this is the 2nd Nintendo console with superior controls for RTS/economic sims (in comparison to other consoles, not PC), but the first one in HD.
