"Oh wow. Yes okay. I was hoping someone would ask this. I have played the WiiU version. The one that is supposedly the best of all of them? It is not. It is the worst. It is a bit of a joke. The WiiU is basically the same game as the console version but with framerate issues, worse texture loading, and horrendously misguided minigames thrown in. You get a 'scanner' to scan enemies and get bonus points that aid your harming them. When you cut open doors (which happens a lot in the game) you have a game where you have to keep the heat 'optimal'. They just add frustration, and take away even more from the fun. We don't know if it will come out, Sega are conisdering canceling it, but right now its still going."

Hopefully Nintendo fans can finally drop the delusional notion that the Wii-U version will be significally better. There's a reason why it's still not released / pending cancellation: it's so much worse to the point that it's unpublishable, not because by some miracle it will be on par with that fake demo walkthrough video.

Actually, Wii U has no version of this game, therefore it's superior.

The worst part of this news is not the game sucking, or being the worst version, it's the deceitfulness going on behind the scenes. Nintendo better shape up, and soon.

After th game tanked so bad I doubt anyone would buy it on Wii U anyway. They are better of cancelling it than spending more money developing it.. espcially if they are leting Gearbox do it. They will use the time and money to make more DLC or start on Borderlands 3.

If it gets canceled, I'd say it's good news. The game already tanked on other home consoles AND PC, so I could completely understand if Sega wanted to scrap the last version. The move won't pay off with all the bad press surrounding the game, anyway.
