Black Ops 2 Wii U won't launch with Call of Duty Elite

4.6

Black Ops 2's Elite service won't be available in any form on the Wii U at launch, Activision says.

"We are currently evaluating options for Call of Duty Elite to support Nintendo's Wii U game system, however Call of Duty Elite for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 will not support this platform when the game launches on November 13," Activision tells Kotaku.

This is true in more than just the Elite sense, since the Wii U doesn't launch until November 18 in North America. Activision recently announced Elite will be free across all platforms for Black Ops 2 and will have a season pass for DLC, at least on Xbox 360. There's no word yet on a season pass for other platforms, but Activision is "working with Nintendo" to bring it to Wii U.

DemonSurfer It's Wii "U" not "Wii" and it's more powerfull than XBOX and 360 and has a "proper" controller so you don't use Wiimote.It will more than likely have extra features the PS3 and 360 don't have.You haven't even seen the game on Wii U yet let alone played it so you can't judge it yet.

Does it really matter if Wii U doesn't have Elite, I don't think they're are going to be competitive teams on the Wii U

The only people that play on the wii are children and people that think they are leet hackers for modding up the wii cod games :D
On a real note though, I done think anyone will care about this.

I do not care for the wii with cod games all they do is get hacked.
