Remembering the Wii U: 5 Best RPGs

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.

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.

Lots of devs saying they won't make games for it though. If only it were more powerful with onboard chat and matchmaking

I do love the wiiu despite having one of switches shortcomings

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

Featuring_Dante2994d ago

Best Two JRPG in the past 4 years on consoles. Xenoblade Chronicles X and Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE

OtakuDJK1NG-Rory2994d ago (Edited 2994d ago )

If yall can't list anything better then I am correct.

"Best Two JRPG in the past 4 years on consoles. Xenoblade Chronicles X and Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE"

Only in the minds of the most diehard Nintendo fans.

OtakuDJK1NG-Rory2994d ago (Edited 2994d ago )

You sure do love sidestepping. If you can't counter my claim then don't bother.

Featuring_Dante2994d ago

Final Fantasy XV and I Am Setsuna.

OtakuDJK1NG-Rory2994d ago

FFXV is terrible. It has too many problems. I beat the game at the end of 2016.
The way the magic and summon mechanics work is terrible, the AI is really bad for the party members and the story is truly incomplete.

Never played I am Setusna but will pick it up on Switch. Was gonna get it on PS4 but I spent my money on 3DS games and The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel II which I would say it's in Top 7 JRPG.

conanlifts2994d ago

I am setsuna is supposed to be good. But it would not be in the same league as xenoblade.

Featuring_Dante2993d ago (Edited 2993d ago )

ofcourse you'd say its terrible, since its not on, oh the grace of nintendo's consoles'
Your statement is as subjective as it gets.
xenoblade chronicles is supposed to only get 'fun' after 20 to 25 hours, other than that, it suffers from the western open world syndrome.

OtakuDJK1NG-Rory2993d ago (Edited 2993d ago )

Uh no.
I have you know that I beaten FFVII-X. Owned them on PS1/PS2. XIII on PS3.
I even have the Vita version of FFX.
With FFVIII being my favorite and second favorite JRPG of all time. I beaten FFIV-X and XIII.

I know it too much for you console slave to handle.

https://psnprofiles.com/DJK...

Xenoblade Chronicles X is a overall much better game. It's WAY WAY WAY more open and freedom. Does everything better. And I know this because I put over 150 hours into it.

Featuring_Dante2992d ago

it does everything better in your opinion. The general consensus is that its awful

Reason number 1 why I haven’t played yet:
Cannot commit the time. :/

GotGame8184d ago

The nice thing about X is you have a Follow Ball. If you haven't played for a few days it will help you jump right back in! Fantastic game! You should at least have 5 initial hours over 2 days or so to invest. I also suggest grinding to at least level 14 before chapter 3.

Zeldafan644d ago

It's nice that definitive edition makes level grinding easier. Quite a bit quicker than the original release.

PRIMORDUS4d ago

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.😕

Dhika4d ago

I bought it on the Wii U years ago and couldn’t get into it too 🙁

PRIMORDUS4d ago

I feel ya, sucks cause I wanted to like it, I tried.

TFdwnunder4d ago

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

Surprised Agro (Shadow of the Colossus) didn't make the cut.
