15 Upcoming Video Games To Make A Wii U Worth Buying

If you've been sitting on the fence about buying a Wii U, these upcoming titles should convince you to take the plunge.

Don't you mean to make a wii u "MORE" worth buying? Wii u already has many reasons to buy.

[Sly-Lupin]

For some people it's more about quantity than quality. That's why this list has multiple disposable "shovelware" games, and games that haven't been announced.

[deafdani]

I see your point about unnanounced games (Metroid Prime 4?), but shovelware? I don't see a single shovelware title on this list.

Mario Party is the one that comes closest to "shovelware", and even that is stretching it a lot.

Right!?!? I know I am probably getting almost every game on that list if not every. I am 24 too, kids 10-17 think these games are for kids but people my age know better.

[DryBoneKoopa85]

I'm getting just about every game on that list myself! I'm 29 and my wife is 26 and we love playing Nintendo games.

[frezhblunts]

Yeah dry bone i play these games with my gf. She loves zelda, so we play hyrule warriors together

[Concertoine]

Lol im 17, really like my my wii u. My friends dont think much of it until they come over lol... two of my friends have gotten one since.

Im not like most kids my age though. I spend more time on my ps2 and DC than my ps4. Enjoying parasite eve for the first time right now.

[frezhblunts]

lol Con I had parasite eve! It was hard for me when I was younger but loved the story

For the new starfox all i want is.
Starfox Assault gameplay with better on foot controls.
Solid Online play.
16 players online.
More weapons, stages and vehicles
great story mode.

[shaw98]

I don't want ground missions and story has never been the focus of starfox. The plot is to defeat an evil space monkey.

[Sheed]

but, it worked effectively for the multiplayer

[Nintendo4Life85]

Wii U been worth buying since November 18, 2012 sorry it took you 2 years to realize that.

I feel bad for gamers that skipped on the Gamecube and Wii. They basically played other systems while missing out on the best overall publisher of games ... Nintendo.

I generally own all the consoles ... I can't imagine missing out on Nintendo games.

[shaw98]

As a gamer, I could not survive a console generation without Nintendo. I can't solely play on PC. The main reason I game on pc is because I have to have one for work.

[BigDuo]

Shadow of the Eternals and Metroid Prime 4 don't belong on that list since A) the former is vaporware at this point and B) Retro hasn't announced its next project yet, and we probably won't even see it at E3 next year for that matter. Anyway, I want all the other listed titles except for Mario Party 10 and Mario Maker. The only projects that are announced, but are not confirmed for release/localization yet are Fatal Frame 5 and Fire Emblem X Shin Megami Tensei.

[Loadedklip]

Yea I would have replaced the Vaporware with Fatal Frame.

If they wanted to do an honorable mention and say ... "bonus ... Retro has already begun working on their next project and rumors are that it is going to be big" ... that would have been better.

I do hope it is Metroid that they are retaking over but if not ... then maybe let them try to create something completely new and fresh. See what they can do.

As much as I love Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze ... Wii U has plenty of platformers and more on the way. Wii U need something else from Retro. Metroid or New IP works for me.

All of them! :)
