Andy Tudor, Creative Director for Project Cars, had a recent interview with NowGamer about the game and specifically mentions the following about the Wii U version:

The gamepad just screams new innovations for gameplay and is a perfect match when thinking about using the gyroscope as a handheld wheel like in Mario Kart Wii and showing data on the screen such as a map, telemetry, speedo, or rear view mirror.

When you couple that with Miiverse functionality and community its a no-brainer.

The title is being developed for PS3, Xbox 360, and PC, but the Wii U version seems to host the definitive experience of the gameat least thats what I gather from what Mr. Tudor is saying.  The game will run at a full 720p and 30fps, but heres some more of what he had to say about all the versions:

Honestly, each has their own advantages: the PC will always benefit from the most bleeding edge processors and graphics cards but the Wii U has brand-new ways of interacting via the Gamepad, and the PS3/Xbox 360 versions continue to push those machines to their very limits whilst hooking in to already-popular systems like PSN and Xbox Live.

So no one single platform wins Im afraid!

I'll take a driving wheel + 3 monitors over any tablet controller "innovation" any day.

when you have nothing good to say about a version you bring the innovation card.

This game needs to come out and does this game have good customization like forza or even gt5, because I love how in forza I could turn a simple car like iirc the datsun 510 how i could make it the best drag car in the game, outperforming the bugatti veyron by putting some gtr engine in it, eventhough it could not happen in reallife. Also any recommended specs yet.

That won't happen in Project Cars. Project Cars is a real simulation. They go for pure realism.

This version  might actually get motion-control done right in a racing game:

Not as good as a wheel, obviously, but still better than just having dual analog control.

And probably much better than Kinect, which just lacks precision and a physical controller.

It's just you.

But I think there should be an "arcade" mode in the U version included. (besides the "hardcore", realism mode)
