Off TV Play and 2 screen coop. Not bad WB... Not bad!
But why not LotR?

Should've taken the time to collect 1+2. They did it for Star Wars!

This one probably sold better.

The Wii version is currently $12.99 at newegg. And of course, it's playable on a Wii U.

Thank god for co-op between the gamepad and the tv. The smart screen splitting they use in the lego games always made me motion sick

Pretty much this, it's the same mistake 3rd parties would make on the GC all the time.
Also, pretty sure Lego Batman 2 has already been for sale for 20 bucks(or less) on other platforms. If it's not at a discount, they're sending it to die - Wii U owners can, after all, still buy and play the much cheaper Wii version.

This game came out last year... I feel sorry for the kids who get this game twice.
You can force a locked splitscreen in the game! Headache = GONE.

Another late port, but off-tv and coop without split-screen is not bad.
And City. I'll buy those two.
But if some wiiu owner is interested, Batman2 was good especially because it introduced the free roaming aspect into the Lego games. Offtv and multi with no split are good.

I know it shouldn't but the Lego series really annoys me for some reason.
1 would look extremely primitive next to 2; there's been huge advances in design between those two titles.

The Amazing Spider-Man licensed game is coming to Wii U in May. This is small-fry.

Every late port is another nail in the WiiU coffin.

Wow, another year old port from WB! Such amazing support from these guys

AHA, I remember someone saying it was a possibility but by now I thought it wasn't true. Very nice. Makes sense as it's Open World ala Lego City, so that's likely why they're doing it now as a companion to City.

In fairness, they're pretty much giving all they have to give. I mean, it's not like they've been bringing out or announcing loads of titles during the Wii U's lifetime that the Wii U hasn't seen.
With Injustice and Lego Marvel both coming out in the future, as well as TT Fusion being allowed to make Lego City Undercover, I'd say WB Games are probably the third party that's most on board with Wii U right now. I thoroughly expect the next Arkham game to come to Wii U as well.
any kind of support and games is better than having no games on the system,don't you think? they just need to release them for cheap and not in full price.
Well that's the point; stores won't drop the price.
Allthough Amazing Spider-Man will be $ 40?
Speaking of support Warner Brothers seems to support the Wii U decently. 3 Lego games (ok they put those everywhere anyway) and The DC fighting game.
Wonder if the Next Mortal Kombat will make it?

This is a major reason for why late ports on Nintendo systems can't sell and, in order to getaway unharmed, they later use Nintendo and it's audience as escape goat excuse for it's lackluster sales.

I found lego batman 1 boring. Does 2 improve combat?
That wont happen though. They will be full price just like all the old ports have been.
I feel it's that.. and partially the rest of the year between April-Sept is pretty damn barren with releases.
PRobably just trying to find games to fill the void
