I'll be sure to add you soon!
The ONLY gripe I have with Nintendo's WiiU is that all available controller LACK analog triggers.
In most games this will not mean much but, for racing games in general ( and games like GTA , not YET on WiiU...) this means No analog brakes or throttle.
This means a bit less control over your cars etc.
Compared to the "old" xbox 360 the Wiiu is sincerely lacking in the control department.
Games like GTA, NFS, Forza spring to mind inmmidiately.
After playing NFS MS on my old 360, I simply cannot go back to my NFS MW WiiU copy.
If there would ever be a serious racing simulator, like forza etc, it would be awefull on WiiU.
Nevertheless, NFS MW WiiU looks better than it's counterparts on other consoles.
due to the lack of analog triggers it simply does not "feel" as good on WiiU as it does on the other ports.
Also the lack of these analog triggers, makes the odds of games like GTA on WiiU alot slimmer of happening....
A REAL SHAME! As I love my WiiU....
I'm shocked to see no one is complaining about the mechanics and gameplay of the game. Well, the initial excitement may well take over, but in the end before I sold it the game just seemed to drag me down with the constant crash animations (even when just standing still on a ledge). Mind you I didn't suck at the game, I completed all of the missions, crashed all the billboards and unlocked all of the "Nintendo" themed cars. And that's what I had the biggest gripe with in the game: you have cars available to you from the beginning and you don't need to do much to get more / upgrade. Then there's the lack of customization and the stupid fact your car gets a paint job every time it passes through a gas station, which makes no sense. The graphics are great, controls with the Wii U Pro Control are good (except for the fact the Wii U Pro Controller lacks analog triggers, but there's not much the game itself can do about that), but the mechanics and gameplay destroyed it for me. Once you start playing the higher difficulty challenges with fast cars, even the slightest nudge would yet again initiate those slow crash sequences that break the flow and immersion of the game. Make no mistake this is a Burnout game with a different cover. If you like Burnout, you'll like this game. If you like racing games in general and wish to keep immersed in the game, this is not the game for you.
It's a really good port, in fact it's the best console port of Most Wanted that's out there as it uses PC textures but I noticed that at times the framerate slows down during parts of the game, though aside that they've done a great job!
UbiSoft (SC:B, AC4) and EA (ME3, MW) were the two third party publishers who released the best Wii U multiplatforms so that's something no one can deny.

It'll never happen. GameCube adapter only works for Smash Wii U and Smash Wii U only (not even the VC demos are playable with it).
Do the analogue triggers on the Classic Controller (not Pro) only act as digital inputs in this game?
Yes. It doesn't "understand" the analog range in the original Classic Controller.
Duh! That's why I made that statement. The game came out roughly two years before the GameCube adapter. With that said, PDP and Hori fight pads are compatible as they are just Classic Controller Pros in a GameCube Controller shell! Aside from the lack of local multiplayer modes, this game is a VERY solid release.
I think the online still works so anyone with a Wii U looking to play a racer online should definitely try out MW.
Btw, Shinko, MW has Nintendo decals? Could you provide some screens?

Got it for $14.86 delivered from glyde.com a month or so ago. I have about 13 purchases through there and no problems so far. Sometime the asking prices are nuts but if you set a price alert you will get an email when the game comes up at what you want to pay.
yup, missed chance by Nintendo.
The controllers could be alot better untilizing analog triggers.
They thought that digital triggers as per the Wii Classic Pro Controller would be a wise choice for the hardcore gamers as they had planned.
Back in 2014 I played GT4 on my PS3 60GB and the analogue triggers worked perfectly they weren't recognised as digital triggers but Nintendo's different, as usual.
Just picked this up because of this thread.. I played the PC version, but wanted a console version since I'm straying away from PC gaming but afraid it would look far worse on the Wii U..
Color me surprised how god damn good this looks on Wii U

Am I the only one that puts the TV on mute and uses another device to play the soundtrack from the original (PS2,GC,XB) Most Wanted game?
These gameplay gripes apply to every version of the game from what I can tell. Having tried the Vita version, it is a really lackluster experience. The game doesn't look as pretty on the Vita, and there are certainly less objects allowed on screen which dulls down the cop chases pretty badly (not to mention the cop AI is really, really stupid). Otherwise the core experience remains, and your complaints there were some of my biggest complaints with the Vita version. The crash animations were certainly annoying, but otherwise I just felt like I wasn't earning anything. All you had to do was drive around the city, and boom, every car would crop up if you just explored a bit. You could get the best cars for free with little effort. What fun is that? The "story" was garbage too in that there really was no story. Just "hey, become the best racer. k? k." NFS games have never been known for their amazing stories, sure, but generally you get far better motivation than what this game gives you to advance. Besides that, the missions just weren't all that great. I simply had a hard time actually enjoying the game. I don't know if they solved the terrible crash issues that most other versions of the game suffer, but if they did, kudos for playing a version where they actually did something that resembles bug testing.
All in all, this was a really weak entry in the NFS series and it was more than a little obvious that nobody that worked on the older NFS titles even had a small part in crafting this experience. Anybody that buys this because it says Need For Speed, recognize you aren't getting a Need For Speed game. As shinkodachi said, it is far more akin to Burnout, and even then, it's a poor version of that. I would either recommend older NFS games (ie: stuff from the GCN/PS2/Xbox generation), or just pick up Burnout Paradise for your PC. All are far more worthwhile experiences.
Played it today again and it was really satisfying, the gameplay was smooth, the visuals were top notch and safe to say this is easily the best Wii U game to show its graphical capability.
If Project CARS has destruction derby stages like GRID did and permits to fully wreck the vehicles I'd be willing to support the Wii U edition for the free online play as long as there'd be plenty of players to play with.

Project Cars hasn't mentioned the Wii U version in near forever.. I highly doubt at this point we are actually getting it

i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt. -

Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore. -
