To me, it's bad to have ports in this situation because one would expect new games coming from a new console. I already have a PS3, so ports of PS360 games don't add much much to the console (even if it has "new" controls) which translates in not buying the console.
Of course, everybody doesn't feel the same, and probably I am a minority but anyway that's how I feel.

Also, in the case of Batman (and probably Asscreed 3), the port of Wii U is late than the PS360, if I wanna play it so hard I would buy the Ps3 or 360 version first.


Agree that most people whoo wn 360/ps3 will pickk up the game on those systems.

However there is one crowd of people we are all kind of forgetting. Wii owners who got a 360/ps3 as their second choice console only  because they wanted to play some of these high profile games that wii didn't have.

These people will buy these games on wiiu as they ideally want to own one console. howver not sure what % of these people exist.

Im sorry but im not really getting this, wouldnt buying a Wii U defeat the whole purpose of having one console when they will in fact now own 3?? i can see them trading in the Wii since Wii U is fully BC, but to give up their PS3or 360 would be kind of stupid since not every game from those libraries will be ported to Wii U, FarCry3, Crysis3, SP, just to name a few says hi. THe one crowd who will be getting these IMHO are the zealots, the ones who ONLY buy Ninty products and they are in a super minority.

sorry  I wasn't clear enough.

what I was trying to say is this gen people bought multiple consoles because the Wii alone did not have the 3rd party support.

If WiiU maintain good support than 3rd party games will easily sell well on the WiiU for those people who normally would not want multiple consoles and also like Nintendo games. Otherwise it will definetly be another multi console generation where the core buy their 3rd party games on 720/PS4 and only Nintendo games (and casual games) on WiiU.
