It’s about time you dusted off your Wii U and started playing some games.
“But there are no games!”
Don’t worry: they’re coming! Surprisingly (or unsurprisingly, depending on where you sit on the Nintendo fanboy time equalibrum) Wii U has a hoard of great titles coming out to close out 2013, with a decent blend of first-party blockbusters, including the likes of Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze and Super Mario 3D World, as well as third-party hype-machines like Watch_Dogs and Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag.
So which games will keep your Wii U occupied leading into Christmas? Check out the list below!
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.
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.
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.
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.
Excellent lineup.. this Christmas is beyond jam packed..
I'll be picking up 8 of these games...my poor wallet :(
And this list is missing a few good games plus you can bet COD and lots more make the cut...
The Wonderful 101 ^_^ Oh crap I forgot about Lost World despite how pumped I am for it, Scribblenaughts, Watch Dogs, and Lego Marvel D:
I hope WiiU owners support ubisoft and rocksteady. Those are some top of the line games. Those aren't crappy half baked ports and i'd bet 3rd partys are watching. Very good line up.
