Yes, WiiU will get all the 3rd party games as PS720. Mostly because PS4 won't be THAT much more powerful than WiiU (you can read the answer to that in my sig), which means games ported to WiiU won't be gimped version.

I agree to the sig post you have. But what about Nintendo Network? We can say Call of Duty carried xbox 360 and Ps3.

Well, Nintendo doesn't need CoD to carry them, but that's not to say that Nintendos online services will be lacking. Quite the contrary; Miiverse seems like a very compelling feature, as do NintendoTVii. TVii really seems to be a superior experience than what either PS360 can offer right now. As for how MicroSony will counter it, who knows?

O we know Nintendo doesn't need COD to carry them but COD sales went well because of online functionality. I am wondering if COD will perform just as well  (in sales) utilizing Nintendo's network infrastructure like PSN or Xbox Live?

Philosophically, if COD sales perform well on Nintendo's console (ratio wise) like it did on Xbox and Playstation, then it is an "indication" that all 3 consoles will  function as a unified install base for 3rd party developers.
