Oh so it will have local multiplayer.

It's fine, then, that's all it needed in Japan and the console versions are typically bigger in the West (I think).

All the more reason a handheld needs online MP, never gonna grow otherwise.

I think the intention here is to sell the Wii U version over the handheld one (which will sell well anyway) as a way of improving Wii U sales.
