A Grand Theft Auto-like open-world game called LEGO City Undercover has been detailed for Wii U. You'll use the Wii U GamePad to scan areas for clues and solve crimes, and then roam the game world at will.

Visuals are decidedly LEGO, but the gameplay is straight-up GTA/Saints Row.A component game will also be released for the Nintendo 3DS platform, and will contain unique content and its own storyline in the same game world for portable gamers.
