Call of Duty: Black Ops II Confirmed for Wii U

Activision claims the GamePad controller will enhance Black Ops II's gameplay on the Wii U.

Among the games revealed for the Wii U during Nintendo's New York press conference was Call of Duty: Black Ops II. While this may not come as a huge surprise, Nintendo has confirmed the news with a live demo.

According to Activision, the Wii U version of the game will be "the full Call of Duty experience," with the GamePad controller enhancing that experience. One player can play on the television with a second using the GamePad, or gamers can just play alone using the GamePad to free up the television for something else.

The popular zombie mode will also make a return, and while details are currently scarce, Activision promises more information soon.

Call of Duty: Black Ops II will be available for the Wii U this November.

2 screens "splitscreen" multiplayer, 60FPS.
Isn't this like a confirmation that it's much stronger than the current gen?

Considering 'current gen' is running half-a-decade old hardware, that's really not an achievement...

I didn't mean to imply that it's an achievement.
I just wanted to point that out to people who are still saying how the WiiU is weaker than the 360.

Wasn't this already confirmed? :/

I've never heard people implying it was weaker than the 360. Weaker than the PS3 on the other hand...that's much more commonplace to hear.

Captcha: nitty-gritty
Terrifyingly prophetic

That's pretty nifty, not a seller for me but nifty all the same.

There are still people like that? -_-

Haters gonna hate.

Meh. Good for those interested, and nice to see support from Activision (never thought I'd be saying that...), it might move a couple units, and those who get the console for other reasons might pick it up. Hell, if I do end up getting Blops 2, I might even get the WiiU version.

Like the TVii, I can see why they announced it (more for the investors and stockholders), but I still ain't excited for it, unlike the other bits of news from the conference.
