Wii U Games 2013

I've been seriously considering getting W101 today. Am a big fan of platinum games, but I've heard a lot of reports about the troubling controls of the game. I've heard the same complaints about kid icarus controls for 3ds but it wasn't game breaker, but I don't know how bad w101 controls are.

Download the demo. It should give you a decent idea of the controls.
 
I'm pretty glad Tropical Freeze was delayed. So many good games coming out this holiday on Wii U that I'm going to already have to skip some at the moment for the sake of my wallet.
 
I totally forgot that W101 had a demo. Downloading it as I type this. About the games, I don't mean that nothing impresses me, it just I don't know what to buy. Am attending to go digital only and games on the eshop ain't cheap so I don't want to waste £40 on a game that I'll regret later. I might get older games for cheap but they are very few (I don't like what I saw from zombieU and I already got Mon hun 3 for the 3ds)

It's good you're downloading the demo for W101. I liked the core gameplay, but couldn't get past the controls.

Put me down as a recommendation for Pikmin 3 though.

Nah. The first party line-up consists of 3 Wii games and Mario 3D World. I would've preferred they delay any of the Wii games over DKC (assuming DKC is ready).

Zombi U is great inspire of the reviews. It's been reviewed in a similar fashion to the wonderful 101, which is an amazing game.

Rayman is great from what I hear and so is pikmin 3. But that's about the extent of the library right now.

that's pretty selfish :/

now cuz of the delay I don't have anything to look forward to in 2013 on Wii U
 
I wasn't aware Nintendo was publishing Sonic Lost World, but I don't count Wonderful 101 as a game "coming out this holiday" which is the part you must've not read (in your own post).
My post referred to games I've yet to buy and plan on doing so during the holiday season which included Mario 3D World, Sonic Lost World and Wonderful 101.

Even with the Wonderful 101 out of the equation depending on someone's criteria of holiday season Sonic Lost World and Mario 3D World still fit under your description. Also you are aware of fact that shoving 3 platformers out close to release is a horrible idea that will only cannibalize sales, correct?

There are $180 worth of exclusive games that aren't remakes or "wii games".

I don't really give a shit what your post referred to if you can't communicate it in plain English and then you try to get snarky with an honest reply to your poorly-worded post.

I said factually what 4 first-party games were, in your words, "coming out this holiday". And then I stated my preference that I would've preferred DKC to come out this holiday. If you're incapable of properly communicating your thoughts, then don't be an ass.

LMAO, might want to calm down.

There was nothing "dishonest" about my reply. I classify months post September to be considered for the holiday. It's not as if these games were suddenly wiped off the face of the planet a month after release. So many good games "coming out" can imply games that are already out from a gradual sense

But please, give me your oh so amazing english lessons.
 
Freezie KO everybody, taking advantage of iPhone autocorrect instead of actually responding.

I was directly responding. You asked for English lessons.

Your post is riddled with nonsense. Like this:

There was nothing "dishonest" about my reply.

Why did you put "dishonest" in quotes? I didn't use the word dishonest. You didn't use the word dishonest. Who used it? Why are you using this as an argument?

You write like a fourth grader with your "lmao" and "ok bro" comments. You can't comprehend that a game that came out in September is not "coming out this holiday". And you don't even read the parts of my post where I was referring to first-party software, since you keep bringing up a Sega-published title.

I'm happy to have respectful disagreements with posters like D-e-f and RagnarokX about Nintendo's line-up, but each one of your posts contradicts the last. You tried to be snarky, but you didn't even read your own post. Own it.

Clearly sarcasm is not your strength.

It's a summarizing of your post without shoving a pointless block quote between it.

You write like a fourth grader with your "lmao" and "ok bro" comments. You can't comprehend that a game that came out in September is not "coming out this holiday".
Let me repeat this for you:

Games coming out this holiday depends ENTIRELY on what someones classification is. Games coming out (once again) can be gradually used.

And you don't even read the parts of my post where I was referring to first-party software, since you keep bringing up a Sega-published title.
Nintendo is publishing it in my region, there are people outside of the bubble that you appear to live in.

I'm happy to have respectful disagreements with posters like D-e-f and RagnarokX about Nintendo's line-up, but each one of your posts contradicts the last. You tried to be snarky, but you didn't even read your own post. Own it.
Sure I did, and I just had to explain it to you once again.

Oh and have you forgotten your pissing match on Mario 3D World that you had with me? Go back and read your posts prior to the second trailer. Have a good laugh.

Couple of questions regarding COD and Ghosts.

Have there been any screenshots/videos released specifically for the Wii U version? I've tried googling but it all seems to blend into one mass (not necessarily a bad thing really) and the only detail I see is that Treyarch is developing it.

For those that played Black Ops 2 - when playing splitscreen/pad+tv could you have multiple nnid's signed in or did they force the second player to be a guest like on the 360/PS3?
One final question - was it possible to play with 3 people on the same console online or was it limited to 2?

Cheers~

Why not check the screenshots thread?

I could be wrong on Ghosts, I haven't really been following, but we haven't seen anything Wii U related, and I'm pretty sure it's not getting map packs, even Freefall.

Local Multiplayer was limited to two players, online and offline, you could sign into your own account as the second player.

Yes its possible to have two NNIDs signed in while playing online from one console. I haven't tried more than two at a time, but I think that's the limit.

I also must say, as someone who played CoD frequently on Live and some on PSN, that besides the lack of DLC the WiiU was the definitive place to play Blops II. I loved being able to walk out to my porch and play online in the nice spring weather.
 
Is Darksiders II any good?
A local retailer has it for sale but I'm not sure
They have like 3 copies left.
Yeah, gamepad is great for a loot-heavy and vast game like this. If you haven't played the first it's a bit like Zelda in the sense that you have an overworld that connects dungeons and you get new abilities opening up new possibilities and such. Art style is great, gfx are OK.
 
I wouldn't be surprised by the following:
The WiiU will end up getting many late ports of
XB1/PS4 games over the next couple of years
with gamepad improvements.

I really dont think the PS4 and XB1 will catch
fire world-wide as some people are predicting
for another few years.

So I think developers will look to recoup many
of their development costs by eventually porting
to the WiiU. Third party supports looks weak right
now, but I think a little patience will reap rewards.
 
Can a moderator change the thread title to "Wii U Games 2013 / 2014"? We're already in October and there are some games for 2014 now.


Watch Dogs got delayed on every platform to Spring 2014:

Thanks, that was my problem, didn't even think to search for NNID, I was just entering stuff like "neogaf wii u friend thread." Christ, I'm a failure.

Somebody smash the banhammer on this b-hole.

Is Fifa 13 worth grabbing? Can be found for a decent price second hand these days. I know it's essentially Fifa 12.5, without any of the online modes, but none of those bother me much, and I wouldn't mind having a decent football game to play.

Sadly with with PES skipping ninty consoles outside of Japan, and the state of the 3DS versions, this seems like my only real option at the moment....
