Top 10 Most Anticipated Wii U Games — October 2013

"NintendoNetwork64 counts down its top 10 most anticipated Wii U games, as of October 2013.

Downloadable games have been excluded, as there will be a separate list made for them. Yarn Yoshi along with SMT x FE were also excluded since we haven't heard anything about them for 9 months" -- NN64.

Maybe I should get a Wii U for my kids this Christmas! Hmmm...

The_Truth_24_73852d ago

No, you don't want to ruin their Christmas. They will never forgive you.

For what it is worth, my 7 year old daughter ADORES Zelda Windwaker.

Better yet, she can sit quietly for hours (other than providing advice), just watching.

Ohh ... and she loves Scribblenauts too ... and I'd credit that with making her WANT/NEED to read :)

ICANPLAYGAMES23852d ago

If they are smaller kids, then sure why not. My kids love our Wii U. They love anything Mario, really like Nintendoland, have a blast with Lego City, and when they're not playing any Legend of Zelda title (Oot and WW HD, right now) my son is always running around pretending to be Link.

BullyMangler3852d ago

yes do . . but make sure not to play bayonetta 2 near any children . bayonetta 2 features more Adult content than anything sony or microsoft will be getting any time soon . this bayonetta game will be biblically perverted ..

be careful what you bring into your home . . you are safer getting a ps4 . for now .

Wow I didn't know WiiU had 10 anticipated games

-Mika-3852d ago

lol that was my exact thoughts when i read the title.

R00bot3852d ago

It actually probably has more anticipated titles than the other next gen consoles, you know, 'cos it's been out for a year longer.

Scatpants3852d ago

I'll give them Smash Bros, Mario Kart and X. The rest don't look all that great to me. I'll probably still get one next summer when I get bored of my PS4 and my Xbox 1.

R00bot3851d ago (Edited 3851d ago )

3D world could be great as well, but it just depends if you're into 3D platformers.

Glad Wii U is finally getting some more games for their owners.

We'll definitely be getting the Mario games.

-Mika-3852d ago

And that why the third party are abandoning this system.

RTheRebel3852d ago

And that's why third party*
Cmon, Sony Drone you look retarded as Mika.

InTheZoneAC3852d ago

yeah it threw me off, I think he's gay

and the only game I'm looking forward to is donkey kong

I'm sure mario will be fun but it's not something that I can't wait to play...

R00bot3852d ago

I don't think he's gay, it was just a simple joke.

Took it a little far, but whatever.

Zelda Replay: Majora's Mask

VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Is Ocarina of Time as legendary as I remembered it? For the most part, yes. In spite of a handful of missteps — a few obtuse puzzles, some tedious backtracking, and a clunky stealth sequence — I don't believe the last 23 years have been unkind to it. Ocarina remains a brilliant example of the medium, a landmark game that shaped the future of its own franchise and 3D gaming in general. After more than two decades it retains its inventive dungeon design, challenging puzzles, dynamic combat, wistful storyline, unforgettable music, and empowering open-air freedom. I feel confident calling it one of the greatest games of the fifth generation, even if I'm no longer prepared to list it among the five best games ever made."

Pure unadulterated fun. They don't make them like this anymore...especially not the triple A industry.

FinalFantasyFanatic8d ago

Back when video rental was a thing, I rented out Majoria's Mask, I never finished it though. I did buy the 3DS version before the eshop shutdown, so maybe one day I'll finally play through the whole thing, it's amazing how well these games hold up though. I briefly played Ocarina of Time for a while and it was really fun.

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.

Z50115d ago

How would XCX work without dual screens functionality?

Cacabunga15d 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

Profchaos15d ago

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.

Stevonidas15d ago

Devil's Third is HIGHLY underrated.

repsahj15d ago

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

Chocoburger15d 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.

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."
