The Wii had more exclusives like Red Steel 2, The Conduit, Resident Evil Chronciles, Little King Story, No More Heroes, Grand Slam Tennis, etc.

The Wii U has a few more multiplats of some more mainstream franchises like Call of Duty and Batman and Assassin's Creed.

Depends on which you prefer. If you have a PS3/360 already, then its probably worse for 3rd party suport. If you don't have a PS3/360 then its better than the Wii.


I should have included more of that stuff.  Remember this is just year one of Wiiu compared to Wii lifetime. Wiiu also got Zombi U, Monster Hunter Tri, Shen Megami X Fire Emblem, and Lego City Undercover.

I think you're gonna to see some nice support from 3rd parties on cross platform titles. It won't be like the wii where you often would have a 6 month period with nothing even remotely worth playing coming out. Most 3rd party devs will support the last gen systems for several years and it will only make sense to move many of these titles also to the wiiu after it takes off this christmas. Yeah if Nintendo is planning this to be their console for the next 6 years the support will eventually taper off but I see Nintendo launching something more powerfull than the PS4 in 4 years at the latest.  They're rebuilding their core following this gen.

Compared to the wii where you'd have  christmas where the only quality title was like Animal Crossing this is going to be an amazing Christmas for wiiu. There will be several multiplats to choose from and  some of the following from Nintendo. Mario kart, Wind Waker HD, Pikmin 3, Mario 3d, Yoshi's Yarn, Bayonetta 2.  I eventually bought a 360 last gen because there came a point where you only had games that were like 6 out 7 out of 10 to play on the wii.  That won't be the case with Wiiu. If you're a Nintendo fan and want to be loyal the wiiu will keep use busy.
