Rayman Legends may not be a Wii U exclusive
Despite fronting a character controlled using the system’s unique Game Pad, Wii U highlight Rayman Legends may end up on other systems.
“We’re not really saying it’s a Wii U exclusive although all right now we’re showing is the Wii U,” senior game manager Michael Micholic told Joystiq.
“We’re looking at a lot of different launch options. We’ll keep you guys updates once we know for sure, but right now we’re just talking about the Wii U.”
The Ubisoft Montpellier effort is scheduled to release during the console’s launch, which Ubisoft expects in November.

Even if it ends up on PS3 and 360, the best and most unique features of the game can only be used on Wii U. Look, I’m not a fan of that system but goddamit, Legends’ demo with 4 players and one table player was SUBLIME.
Plus they probably won’t design the same mechanic for general tablets and 360′s Smartglass OR Vita Screen and PS3.

Was there ever any doubt? The last game was released on everything, so unless there was a big sign at the press conference saying ‘coming exclusively to wii u’ (there wasn’t) then it will be released on everything again.
And removing one of the playable characters won’t break the game.

while I can imagine that it is somewhat problematic with smart phones, I think it would actually work really well if they would do the same with Ps3-Vita!

No one talks like that except marketing douchebags.
