Pretty much every Lego game has been multi-platform in some way, from Star Wars to Indiana Jones and even Batman to Harry Potter, but the latest Lego City game from renowned developer, Traveller’s Tales, will be exclusive for the Wii U console.

“LEGO City Undercover would definitely lose something on other platforms. Chase is actually given a LEGO version of the GamePad as his Police Communicator, so it’s really woven into the story.”

These comments were made by Loz Doyle, Executive Producer on Lego City Undercover during an interview with Official Nintendo Magazine UK. Loz Doule continued:

“We started with a massive array of ideas [for the GamePad] but in the end we focused on it being a police device. The map is really useful to have on at all times rather than in a small corner of the screen, plus you receive video calls from different characters.”

Do you think it is wise to restrict the game to the Wii U?
