With Diablo 3 heading to Sony HQ, perhaps Blizzard should be looking at Nintendoland next and get Starcraft 2 on the Wii U.
Love, betrayal, and insectoid alien thingies that infest you until you beg for death—StarCraft has everything that gives lasting power to any space opera. Since Blizzard’s seminal real-time strategy game debuted in 1998, it has spawned an intense cult following, launched a reinvention of the global esports scene, and redefined the RTS genre all at the same time. Ten years after the sequel, TechRaptor takes a look at the legacy StarCraft II has forged.
i think these articles are misleading. wings of liberty is literally dead. so is heart of the swarm. Blizzard moved everything over to Legacy of the Void. if someone can let me know how to play wings of liberty or HOTS, let me know.

VGChartz's Taneli Palola: "I recently completed an article series about the history of real-time strategy, and going through so many different games that have shaped the face of the genre over the last 30 years got me thinking. Which real-time strategy titles are the ones that have had the greatest influence on the genre's development throughout its history? What you're reading now is my answer to that particular question."
Stop getting our hopes up with such a blatantly unrealistic proposition. Everybody knows the costs for implementing this game on Wii U would be too risky for Blizzard. Sure, it's ideal for strategy games, but that doesn't mean the market is there.
SC2 would b so awesome on wiiu and a day one purchase for me. Infact im a go an play the original sc/brood wars expansion right now on my N64. and if the N64 can play tht, it b nice to see SC2 on wiiu
i would bye this knowing nintendo would put characters in it.(maybe)
starfox or metroid.
puting a raid on kraid
i always believed the gamepad would be great for strategy games... although at this point, i doubt Blizzard would even consider this (hey, it took eons for Starcraft 2 or Diablo 3 to be released even on its home platform, the PC) -- so the delay Blizzard in bringing these games out, may also be the main hindrance.
the article's points about Wii U being good for Starcraft 2 is indeed promising; the only real question is, if Blizzard would be willing to invest -- admittingly that alone give me serious doubts that this could happen, well not anytime soon, i guess.
on the other hand, it also raises the point again, of the Wii U being a good platform for strategy games. and i'm hoping the announced Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem would prove that, and Pikmin 3 would also showcase that. a whole new generation of strategy games on the Wii U may arise.
Starcraft isnt too great on touchpad. No offense to the wii-U gamepad, but its not precise enough. At least for anyone Past silver league.
