Andrew N from Negative World says: "It's not exactly a secret that, outside of Nintendo published titles, the "AAA" retail scene on the Wii U is basically dead. There are still a few 3rd party titles coming, and hopefully we will get a few gems, but the reality is pretty grim. That's not to say you can't get a lot of great 3rd party titles on the Wii U, because you sure can! You just need to check out the eShop, which has been getting a surprisingly solid amount of great titles, generally from indie developers, during the period retail has floundered. There are many great 3rd party Wii U eShop games to choose from, and here are my top ten."
“There are definitely more interesting 2D platformers on the market but that doesn't mean Runner2 is a bad choice for fans of the genre to check out either; particularly, if you like having your reaction speed challenged.” - Martijn van Gent from Video Chums.
These are some of the greatest games similar to Blasphemous to play while waiting for the much-anticipated Blasphemous 2.
Starting today, Guacamelee Super Turbo Championship Edition and Guacamelee 2 are free at Epic Games Store.
Agree with the top 2.
Both are far better than most of the "AAA" games last year.
