One of the biggest reveals at this years E3 was Nintendo's new console; the Wii U. A decent amount of information regarding the Wii U was given but a lot of unanswered questions still remain.
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.

I think the Wii U might be the future...but since nobody really seems to know what the heck it is, nobody can say for sure...0_o
ALL devices are heading for multi-screen performance. Whether it's a lap top, cell phone or tablet. They will all interconnect with each other and it will be on the go, anywhere...anytime. In the short term they will scale to whatever device you are own and it's limitations and long term, they will be all the same.
It's nice to see Nintendo finally seeing that trying to go it alone will not work. Bringing in Steam is a good idea but they will have to do more and right away. They should tried and sign as many third party titles as possible as the landscape is changing almost daily as more and more big pubs are wondering why they are paying Niny, Sony and M$ huge royalties when they could in-fact just set up there own Onlive type of set up and save a fortune. Activision said a couple of years ago that they had paid Sony over a BILLION dollars...those days are coming to a end.
Activision could in fact tomorrow sell a stand alone Onlive device, as could all the pubs and big devs with their library of games and save a fortune and not have to pay ANY royalties...watch for the moves, they are coming.
No one cares, Reggie.
Unless the Wii U has a large library of games both first party AND third party worth playing, the system will be another failure in my eyes.
was way ahead of its time I guess. VMU is the future of gaming.
