Dealspwn: "Spoiler alert: don't count Nintendo out just yet."
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.
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.
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.
Tbh I'm more looking forward to Xenoblade Chronicles X than I am the new Zelda, so the news that it has been pushed back to 2016 doesn't change anything for me really.
A shame about Zelda, as the Wii U has been gathering some momentum recently. It's still relying on first-party software far too much for my liking. That said, of all the consoles, they're not releasing half-assed unfinished games. Barely ever read about any of that business with their games. But will slow and steady, keep them in the race?
I bet there will be some irresistible deals by Black Friday though, so I might treat myself then and enjoy Bayonetta 2, Splatoon and Mario Kart while I wait for Zelda (not exactly the end of the world).
It was never going to compete in hardware sales, but software? We still got Xenoblade, Splatoon, Yoshi, Devil's third, Mario maker, those project games, Star fox, plus all the indies and anything announced at e3.
First of all, Wii U's not a competitive console. Secondly, while it has some intriguing exclusives, none of them are likely to be big sellers. Star Fox sales will be low despite fans asking for it. Devil's Third will bomb, Mario Maker will probably sell pretty well. Yoshi's Wooly World will probably sell better than DKC: Tropical Freeze and Xenoblade X sales will probably disappointment.
Fortunately, there's enough worthwhile games on Wii U to justify the purchase in my opinion, but it's disappointing that there's still so few titles and most of them are just from Nintendo itself. Nintendo wanted to make a unique home console and it sure got one which is good and bad in the case of Wii U.
It wasn't going to compete with or without Zelda. And just face it people most people grew out of Nintendo years and years ago that's a major reason why their consoles don't sell and only appeal to hardcore Nintendo fans and little kids age 5-10. And Lol at the people above saying they dont care about Zelda that much all of a sudden.
