Game Informer - It's almost been five months since Nintendo launched the Wii U. The system hit with some solid first-party offerings like New Super Mario Bros. U along with ports of popular games like Batman: Arkham City and Assassin's Creed III. Wii U owners haven't had much new to play since the console's release, and to
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
A new list goes over eight of the the most useless amiibo, ranging from the Shadow Mewtwo card to the Qbby figure.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "10 years. It’s been almost 10 years since the last mainline release in the Mario Kart series. Mario Kart 8 came out for the Wii U in 2014 and became the best-selling game for the system by a sizeable margin, and later pulled the same magic trick on the Nintendo Switch under the stage name Deluxe. All in all, it's sold nearly 70 million copies over the last decade and is still selling like hot cakes to this day, so it’s no wonder Nintendo has been in no rush to replace it. However, with rumors of a new system being just around the corner, and reports a few years back that a new Mario Kart is indeed under way, it seems the era of 8 might very well be drawing to a close. It’s an exciting prospect to be sure, but after two Nintendo systems with Mario Kart 8 at their heart, a lot of questions remain about how Nintendo will choose to follow it up."
I hope they just keep building on Mario Kart 8; Add a track-creation tool, and probably open it up to more Nintendo IPs with new tracks and characters, so Metroid, Punch Out, Starfox, Animal Crossing, etc etc.
there wont be a new one until the switch 2 comes out.
nintendo needs their bangers early on
I like the console but not it's game library. Once I get more games for it and more games come out for it, I'll use it more.
Best system I've had since n64. and could surpass it once the hard hitters hits. the system is just pure fun. games had lost that for a while. at what point did games turn into trophies/achievements? I had missed the days of just picking up a game and playing it to enjoy it. and wiiu owners are the ones paving the way for its return. hence why cod didn't fair so well on wiiu. we love games for fun.
Its a slow burn. It will pick up steam just like all Nintendo consoles. Give it some time.
I like my Wii-U. I wouldn't buy it if I didn't like it. Not to mention, I have monster hunter. I'm good. Can't wait for all the heavy hitters to be out.
I love my Wii U, but right now it's dusty. Just waiting for some more good games to come out, thats all.
