No, it's not. You want to know why? Because everyone doesn't own a PS3 or 360. And even those who do may wait for the Wii U version since it has improved gameplay thanks to the new controller. I mean, why not? You will buy a Wii U mainly for the upcoming Nintendo games released for it, so you might as well get the superior third party title versions while you are at it?

Bottom line: It is not stupid at all.

The phrasing of the statement ("It is stupid to buy a Wii U to play a game you could play on your PS3 or 360") makes it pretty clear that this is under the assumption that "you" own a PS3/360. Since, you know, MegamanZX, who I was addressing, does own one or both of those consoles, which is why he said "I could play on my PS3/X360" in the first place.

I still agree that it would be dumb to buy a new console if the ONLY games you are interested in playing on that console are games you've already played on other consoles.

My bad, I read it as "play on a PS3/360".

However, the underlined still stands. It is not stupid to buy third party titles for your Wii U. Even if you already have an HD console.
