At one point in time, all of the best RPGs were coming out on a Nintendo system. That changed pretty quickly when the Playstation came along, leaving the N64 with the bare minimum for RPG fans. Since then RPGs have evolved a lot, and while the Gamecube and Wii still received their fair share of RPGs, the Big N has not really gotten the same amount of love from a genre that defined itself on the Super Nintendo. Things look to be changing on the Switch, with games like Skyrim and Dragon Quest coming to Nintendo’s newest system, but before then let’s take a look at some of the best offered on the Wii U.
The ill-fated Wii U sold very few units, so it is understandable if you missed out on Xenoblade Chronicles X, here are 9 reasons why you should play the Definitive Edition.
I bought it thinking it was like the trilogy and expansion on Switch. I played it for 15 or so hours and stopped. Couldn't get into it, the gameplay was not like the previous ones, it was not what I expected.😕
Greatest RPG ever except end game makes it impossible to complete for anyone who focused on mech battles. Do not focus on mechs or you will be disappointed

I knew he wouldn't make this list, but I do have a soft spot for Cheeseburger from FarCry 5.
Vampire Survivors: Emerald Diorama is one of the biggest content drops ever, with a free DLC based on Square Enix’s SaGa fantasy RPG.
Nintendo really tried with the Wii U. A Monster Hunter 3 HD title, Xenoblade Chronicles X (a massive jrpg on a grand scale), and a new jrpg IP titled; Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE.
Loved the Wii U (still do), though it's kind of a blessing the console failed because it would've left Nintendo adapting to their old ways. After hearing developers praising the Switch for its ease of development (Nicalis can attest to that!), its the wake up call Nintendo needed to make the Switch was it is today.
I recently just bought Child of Light during a flash sale on PSN and I'm loving it so far. Great thing that this RPG is available across a wide range of platforms
funny enough, thats all what the system has to offer in that department.
Best Two JRPG in the past 4 years on consoles. Xenoblade Chronicles X and Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE
