Over time, with more reviews, many of the games in the Wii U line-up will (probably) see their scores decline somewhat and the Wii U (probably) won't have a game as highly reviewed as Twilight Princess, but the Wii U will likely have 8 to 10 third party published games that are "better" than the best third party effort for the Wii.
