Geimaku: "The most important difference between the current gen of game consoles are the games. That’s what most gamers look at when deciding which console to buy. To help you decide, we’ve listed five upcoming games for the Wii U you can be excited about."
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.
Awesome list. I don't yet own a Wii U but some of these titles definitely may convince me to pick one up later this year.
I'm especially excited for Xenoblade X and Devil's Third.
Devil's Third, in particular, is looking like it will be the mature online multiplayer shooter that Wii U gamers have been asking for, for ages, but never really got from people like Activision.
Great gun play mixed in with well-done melee mechanics.
Tons of extremely cool [and sometimes frightfully strange] customization options for your characters [giant cat head, anyone?XD]
Plenty of extra guns and melee weapons to unlock.
Different kinds of fun online multiplayer modes that haven't really been seen in any other shooter.
Keeping up the standards of other shooters by providing voice chat and clans.
Decent health and defense parameters to the players so that they don't feel like they're made of wet tissue paper...
Oh, and did I mention the stage builder?
Yeah.
THEY'RE LETTING US MAKE OUR OWN MAPS.
IN A WII U SHOOTER.
Am I the only one who's really happy about that?
After two full CoD games that didn't even get their full amount of DLC maps, suddenly we're getting a shooter that gives us the opportunity to make as many maps as we want?
That, is how you please an audience that has been looking for better treatment.
It also helps that the story looks interesting, and although we haven't gotten any new looks yet, apparently they've done great things for the graphics since those early build trailers, so we'll see how that goes. [though I get the feeling that the elitists will slam on it regardless of how much they've improved it just because it's on Wii U]
As soon as the haters stop worrying about stuff that should have no bearing on them like sales numbers they might just realize what an awesome system the Wii U is. There are tons of great games and many more to come!
LOL....I can't stop laughing.
...Xenoblade X and SMT X. Thats it.....
The rest are...meh.
Sooo out of this years games, The Witcher 3, MGSV, Uncharted 4, Batman Arkham Knight, Dead Island 2, The Division, Bloodborne, RE Revelations 2 etc....
Devil's Third fits in some where? LMFAO!
Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem...maybe and X. Thats about it.
Still not enough for me to get a Wii U this year, I'd rather just get one used next year. Too many great games coming out in fall, to spend a few hundred on just 2 games...
wii u looks like it is turning out to be an awesome console.
