"Criterion jumped to the forefront of discussion when it claimed the Wii U version of Need For Speed: Most Wanted would be the definitive console experience. The team stated the game would have longer draw distance, better lighting, and a smoother frame-rate than the PS3 and 360 versions. Furthermore, it would feature PC quality textures. Given the limited performance of some Third Party launch day software, this was surprising. Most of the gaming world had settled on the idea that the Wii U was not even up to the level of the ancient Xbox 360. A short time later, the game is here and Cubed3 has taken it for a ride to see if it holds up.", writes Cubed3.
In this special episode, Shawn Long of Nintendo Enthusiast takes a look at 5 Underrated Wii U games that he feels should be in every system owners collection.
In my opinion, the list of overrated WiiU games is far, far longer.
Mike from mii-gamer:
Need for Speed: Most Wanted U is a superb game; one that is thoroughly addictive and superbly crafted. As it currently stand, Most Wanted U is the best racing game on the Wii U and an outright amazing game, not to the credit of the console, but to the talent of the developer, Criterion.

I would get it on Wii U, Technically it was an exclusive for the Wii U so thats the system that has the best version because of the gamepad.
The disagrees on the Wii U version being better are fanboys, and that's fine. All versions are great BUT the Wii U is better because of the gamepad. Common the entire game was initially designed with the gamepad in mind. Delustional fanboys. Why can't you just let a couple of games be better on Wii U.
I wish I jumped on this when it was $30 on Origin.
