Mass Effect 3 will probably bomb hard. Then EA will go "hurrdurr our gaemz don't sell on Niitendo conzole, we outa here". And I will be like

and pick up ME3 for Wii U in 6 months from the bargain bin.

Unless you want to slog through the first game which I don't think is worth that effort... you really should be OK with just getting Mass Effect 3 with the pre-quel story/choices covered via comic. I personally think that is a good feature even if you have already played first two games on same console because now you don't have to slog through the prior games making different choices just to have a different starting point for ME-3.

While I didnt enjoy all the lame gameplay and loading screens and dialog tree minutia of the first game... I did think ME-2 was much more worth playing. It was like the difference between Assassin's Creed first game and Assassin's Creed II. If you have played both of those, would you recommend the 1st game to anyone or would you advise them to skip the first and just enjoy the second game starting with Ezio story. Now extend that out to AC-3 being available... and coming to Wii U without AC-1 or AC-2 coming to Wii U.

What exactly is wrong with what EA has done bringing just ME-3 to Wii U? Is it that ME1-ME2-ME3 collection became available for X360? Well those games were already made and working for X360. What about PS3 finally getting ME-1? Well that isn't out yet and wont be until December... because it takes work. So why are ME-1 and ME-2 not for Wii U yet? Well that also will take time... and they got their hands full just trying to get ME-3 ported over successfully for launch including the damn online mode.

I dislike EA on many things, but picking on them on ME-3 is not fair in my view.
