(for Wii U) After getting the game out of the library a few times I decided to buy. I got it for $25 brand new which I though was an okay price. Are there any other opponaughts that have this game for the wii u?

NFS Most Wanted is a good game; I think you'll enjoy it. I've got it for PS3, not Wii U, unfortunately.

Had it for PS3, enjoyed it for a while. Sucks that there is zero customizing, but still a fun game.

I stopped buying "proper" (not cartoonish) racing games on the Wii a loooooooooong time ago. PS or XB... or PC.

Pretty good game.

- Car selection focuses more on quality over quantity

- Very detailed map. If you take some time to poke around outside of races, you can see the various businesses in the game, some of them referencing and/or parodying real ones.

- Wii U version has a few exclusive secret cars, all alluding to the Mario franchise. Be on the lookout for warp pipes.

- From what I've heard, there's online multiplayer, but only support for 4 player sessions, as opposed to 8 players in the other versions.

- Includes the Ultimate Speed (Zonda R, Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse, Venom GT Spyder, Aventador J, and F1 LM) pack from the start, but the other packs aren't available, so you'd be missing out on the Terminal Velocity Pack (Airport expansion, RS3, Fiesta ST, 1M Coupe, production 918 Spyder, MiTo), NFS Heroes Pack (Skyline GT-R R34, Diablo SV, E46 M3 GTR, 350Z, 911 GT2), and Movie Legends Pack (DB5, Trans Am, DBS, '67 GT500, and '70 Dodge Charger).

- Also missing from the Wii U and other console/PC versions are a selection of cars that are exclusive to the mobile version of this title, which (obviously) isn't a port of the console/PC version.

That includes the Audi R8 GT coupe (other versions have the GT Spyder), Bentley Continental Supersports coupe (other versions have the Ice Speed Record convertible version), 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray 427, Hummer H1 Alpha, Jaguar F-Type V8-S convertible, Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8, and Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera (other versions have the Spyder Performante).

I know it's not that realistic, but I'm more of a casual gamer so im not going to go out and buy a XB one or a PS4 just for one game. Although they are far superior.

I'm not going to devalue the term "sim" by attaching it to Need For Speed, but I've just never really had a positive experience playing racing games that aren't Mario Kart-type deals on Nintendo consoles. Don't know if it's the controllers or what, but when one was out on a choice of consoles I always went for one of the other two. Granted, I had the choice, but still. Nintendo just can't seem to do it right somehow.

I'm sorry that's not terribly helpful =/
