It seemed more true with the Wii U than with the Wii to me. There were plenty of ports that I thought were better than their HD counterparts. Even with the graphical downgrade I prefer COD on Wii to everything other than the PC. Same with Force Awakens. And then there were games that were unquestionably better on the Wii, like Ghostbusters, Goldeneye, and No More Heroes.
With the Wii U, the only port that seemed superior from the start was Need For Speed Most Wanted and maybe Trine 2.
