Re: Wii U Discussion
Guys lets not go down that path...
What matters most is whatever version you are playing have fun.
IGN's take on Wii U version
"Level for level, gun for gun, the campaign, multiplayer and zombies content of Black Ops 2 on Wii U is almost the same. This version may cut the livestreaming feature, and currently doesn’t have Elite, but it makes up for it with some nifty GamePad functionality.
The GamePad really steals the show on Black Ops II Wii U. While you can play with a Wii remote and nunchuck, a classic controller or even the new Wii U Pro controller, the GamePad’s button layout feels closest to what you might expect coming from the 360 or PS3 versions. It also offers some touchscreen options in multiplayer that are sometimes useful, and completely optional to use. You can change your class without having to bring up the start screen, for instance, or call in Scorestreaks with on-screen buttons (less than ideal in an intense situation, but it is optional), or use the GamePad as your minimap regardless of what controller you’re using.
Moreover it’s built-in screen offers functionality that no other platform has. Namely, the ability to play any portion of the game via SecondScreen gameplay. Black Ops 2 occasionally drops in frame-rate no matter how you play it, but both regular and SecondScreen gameplay function well enough that I never felt at a disadvantage or that it took away from the fun, even when playing the super speedy online multiplayer. Even cooler, you can play online split-screen multiplayer without having to actually split your screens. You can still play with two people on the same TV, or, thanks to some brilliant designers, use the GamePad as your second player’s screen.
One additional caveat about Black Ops II on Wii U: Its multiplayer is every bit as fun as that on other platforms, but hardly anyone is playing right now. I could easily find games of Team Deathmatch, but finding games in other modes or in League Play is currently nigh impossible.

Another review:
Platform: Nintendo Wii U
One of the more surprising announcements of Wii U titles was the fact that Activision was bringing Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 on launch day for the system. The Wii had some acceptable Call of Duty outings, but the lack of HD graphics and removal of modes made it always feel like a bastardized version of the real deal. Do Nintendo owners finally get a proper Call of Duty, or were corners cut in this version as well?

One more and I have to get back to work lol
The graphics in the Wii U version are somewhat odd. The majority of the time they are identical (or near enough) to the other versions, but there are a few exceptions. In some instances the animations and design noticeably better, especially in some of the facial expressions and designs of characters, as well as the the particle physics in smoke and light. In other instance like dense foliage, there are some slight degradations and anti-aliasing issues. It balances out, but the highs are a bit higher than the lows
