I don't think you realize how these things work. It is neither of those things. The Wii U isn't "really weak" and they're not "trying to make it look the same" ... they just don't have time and/or will to spend a lot of time making the game work in higher resolutions on a new system they're not yet very familiar with. CoD games have been sub-720p on the other consoles since forever so the Wii U version being 720p right out the gate isn't actually a negative.
Keep in mind, while everyone gets their panties all twisted about launch games suddenly not being 1080p across the board, these are LAUNCH games and many of them are initially made for a completely different hardware architecture. Also, going from 720p to native 1080p is a lot of extra work for any machine). Hardly any game supports it (natively! not upscaled!) other than on PC of course.
they don't need time all they need to do is change the resolution just like on pc. so the specs suck or they are keeping it on par with ps3.
This post confirms that you apparently don't have any clue what you're actually talking about (or you're trolling). You don't just "change" the resolution "like on a PC" with console games. It has also nothing (or very little) to do with specs. There's a ton of optimization that goes into something like a higher native resolution and keeping performance at the target level across the board, especially (as I said before) on brand new hardware that nobody is very familiar with at this point.
why would it need to optimize such a old engine? they did not give the pc more time and it can run cod in 2560x1600.
