Which Wii U multiplats are gimped because of the Wii U's hardware? If anything, the Wii U has experienced the best versions of multiplats for certain games, Need For Speed and Deus Ex are examples. 

Skies of Arcadia Legends (Dreamcast), and Viewtiful Joe (PS2) also weren't exclusives. But it's to the Wii U's advantage that it has gotten multiplats while still getting just as many exclusive, not its disadvantage. Other than the eight third party games I had listed, what were some notable third party games released for the Gamecube between 2001 and 2003? 

I really don't see, other than maybe the tablet, how Nintendo was/is trying to appeal to the mainstream demographic ("casuals".) 

 

Pretty sure that any multiplat also available on PS4 and X1 are comparatively much worse on the Wii U.

If somebody only owns a Wii U that is a non-issue to them, just like those who played RE4 on the PS2 didn't lose out by not playing the better version on the GC and the best version on the Wii. I can say the same thing about my PC versions of multiplatform games in regards to the PS4/XBO, as well. Having said that, there are ways in which the Wii U version can be better on a case by case basis - framerate, tablet controls/off-screen play, etc, etc. Graphics (for scaleable games) are only one aspect a game can be better. Personally I'd rather play shooters on the Wii U than the PS4/XBO (assuming I didn't have a PC) for Wiimote controls alone.
