I hope you don't mind be jumping here, it's not often I find something positive about the Wii U. I'm getting Nintendo Land, ZombiU and Assassin's Creed with mine :)

@ Deku-Johnny

I have Nintendo Land and Zombie U... Both great games. Nintendo Land was a bit of a surprise. I knew it would be fun, but it really has way more to offer than I expected. There are a lot of unlocks to keep you coming back. My wife and I have had a lot of fun with it. I think Zombie U is great too... I know some of the reviews have been mixed, but I really dig it. Got AC3 on PS3, but I'd like to see how the gamepad works with it. The gamepad is really cool, and it's almost a let down when you go back to a standard controller. I also got New Super Mario U, and if you likes Super Marion World, then Super Mario U is a sure bet. Feel free to friend me too... I need more Wii U friends. The best thing about Wii U in my opinion is Miiverse. It keeps you from feeling isolated. You just click the Home button on the gamepad, and you can talk about the game you're playing with other people. It's a great community feature.

Man, if that's the UK box art we american's got the short stick, it's really quite cool.

DivineAssault 4164d ago

evilbart4164d ago

Wii U games that still haven't been ported to Switch

The Nintendo Switch is potentially nearing its lifespan, and several Wii U games haven't found their way over as ports yet.

I think it's better to leave games like AC: Amiibo Festival and Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash forgotten on the Wii U. Best case, they are mediocre games; worse case, they are very bad. It was a dark time for the Wii U, and the first only exists to sell Amiibo cards, whereas the second was put together in a couple of months with a shoestring budget, and it shows.

The rest of the list does have some really cool games, though. I would love to see a remake of Star Fox Zero with decent controls, and Xenoblade X doesn't require that much modification to work.

How would XCX work without dual screens functionality?

Cacabunga3d ago

Same as Paper Mario color splash. One of the best wiiu games and getting even better with dual screen. Same reason why i prefer Splatoon 1

This article leaves out Nintendo's most controversial game to date devils Third.
I personally found the cover system really fun in that one compared to at the time most fps games completely lacking one.

Stevonidas3d ago

Devil's Third is HIGHLY underrated.

repsahj3d ago

They should remake Starfox to the switch 2. Very beautiful game during gamecube days.

Chocoburger2d ago

Kirby is always ignored or forgotten by people, so good to see it mentioned here.
Play Kirby Canvas Curse on DS, and then play Rainbow Curse on Wii U, they're really fun and unique 'platformers' without any actual jumping.
