Is anyone buying a Wii U for this game?

It's probably a performance issue. MK8 likely pushes the Wii U very close to its limits, and they still managed to get it to run at a steady, solid 60fps even in two-player split-screen mode, which is quite the achievement. I guess they couldn't manage to keep that framerate when rendering two entire, separate full-screen views of the game, even if one of them is at the comparatively lower resolution of the gamepad screen.

So they can't do the asymmetric gameplay the Wii U is supposed to uniquely provide because they made it too underpowered? Smart move, Nintendo.
