Wii U Games 2013

That's good.

I'm still angry that the Wii U isn't getting KH3, I'm getting a PS4 so it doesn't really matter but it still feels like a punch in the face after how much we supported Square.

Slightly off-topic maybe, but did Square-Enix say anything about why they are not doing a WiiU release?
 
It's funny how the Wii U suddenly has games.
At least one game per month for the rest of the year is pretty good, actually.
Seems like I'll be buying at least one game per month for Wii U this year.

I like it. And CAN'T FUCKING WAIT FOR BAYONETTA AND SMASH BROS!
 
It's funny how the Wii U suddenly has games.

This is why Nintendo systems are the only ones I'll buy day one. I assume that down the road they'll have a good list of games that I would like to play (and if they have Kirby games, I'm gonna need those).

With other systems, not so much. I was considering getting a Vita over a 3DS at one point in time. Boy, would *that* have been a mistake. :P
 
damn, biggest list this year for me, past 3DS (SMT IV, Phoenix 5 etc)

Zelda WW HD
Pikmin 3
Wonderful 101
Sonic Lost World
Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze
Super Mario 3D World
New Super Luigi U ...there's a few of these ill prolly wait on a B2G1 deal though
 
E3 tends to do that. The system would be beyond fucked if it didn't.

Every system would have been, and it was pretty irrational to think otherwise. It further proves that you can't judge ANY system after only being out for half a year.

Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze = Day 1
The Wonderful 101 = Day 1
Pikmin 3 = not neccesartily day 1, but I'll get it
Mario 3D World = not neccesartily day 1, but I'll get it
Rayman Legends = not neccesartily day 1, but I'll get it
Zelda Wind Waker HD = Day 1
+ probably some Indie Games

Batman Arkham Origins
Watch Dogs
maaaybe Splinter Cell

are tempting as well.

Add to that some 3DS games I've already gotten + Bravely Dafault and Pokemon XY, I'm just so fucking set.

It's almost too much.

Edit: fuck, Sonic Lost World is coming out this year a well?
 
Edit: fuck, Sonic Lost World is coming out this year a well?

yeah, for the Heaven of Platform Game:
Sept: Rayman Legends
Oct: Sonic Lost World
Nov: DKCR 2
Dec: Mario World

hellyeah.

Btw, all of those games will be mine this year, together with Pikmin, Luigi, W101, Splinter Cell, Zelda, Batman, AC4 and probably WatchDog.

Only on Wii U. Than I have to add the 3DS list and the PS3 incoming last gems...
 
Ugh why are Rayman legends and the wonderfull 101 so close to eachother. Same goes for wii party u and the new sonic game. Now i have to make a choice which one to buy.
 
Yep. Like a month after DK. Planning on day 1ing it on Wii U and 3ds. Just like Batman(except I'm getting the console one on PS3).

Sonic Lost World is gonna be my - I'm a little ashamed to say it - first Sonic game (what can I do, I never had a Genesis/Mega Drive). I've played it (dat first 16 bit Sonic) at a friends house when I was younger and actully found it pretty cool.

The one for Dreamcast I also played at a friends' house, but never had a Dreamcast myself either (it kinda died early). Many years later I got one, but then I lost interest in it.

Since the new Mario is going a more Mario 64/Super Mario 3D Land route, I think it would be cool to have a game like "Sonic Galaxy" as well - because I like both styles and am a huge fan of Mario Galaxy.
 
Pikmin 3, The Wonderful 101 and The Wind Waker are 100% certainties for me. I'll wait and see how the rest pan out but Christmas time, co-op Mario might be hard to pass up.
 
I just realised that my shopping spree will start this week with New Super Luigi U followed next week by Game&Wario. And Europe's releasing schedule is very nice.

Let the games begin!
 
My Wii U might be coming in tomorrow, and I'm totally stoked,it's coming with NSMBU, but I also plan to buy this year:
Zombiu, Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze, SM3dW, CoD:Ghosts, and maybe Watch Dogs.
 
Edit: fuck, Sonic Lost World is coming out this year a well?

Both the Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games and Sonic Lost World are coming out this year.
Makes me wonder if the third game is coming out this year too. Probably not since it wasn't even announced at E3.
 
EDIT: If it's not too much trouble, how about a link to a trailer below each game?

I've asked Smoker already to put animated gifs into his template instead of static images but his lazy ass won't budge!

I'm kidding, very grateful for your work and this awesome thread!
 
yeah, this year is pretty packed for me too,

Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze
Game & Wario
The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker
Pikmin 3
Sonic: Lost World
Super Mario 3D World
Wii Fit U
Wii Party U
The Wonderful 101
watch dogs

i'm also considering deus ex and splinter cell and i still haven't picked up tank tank tank or mh.

all this and more 3ds stuff to get. this is not going to be a kind year to my wallet.

I didn't realize until now how expensive the rest of this year will be lol

That doesn't include 3DS or Indie games, which add more $$$ to the list
 
Super Luigi U, Pikmin 3, Wonderful 101, Rayman Legends (renting that one), Wind Waker HD, Sonic Lost World, Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze and Super Mario 3D World for me this year.

Glad to finally have some games to look forward to with Wii U.
 
This on top of trying to get a Laptop for my birthday, and a PlayStation 4...<_>

Game & Wario
New Super Luigi U
Pikmin 3
Rayman Legends (got that $40 preorder on NewEgg, however might cancel it since all of my 3DS backlog and all the Nintendo games)
The Wonderful 101
The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD
Sonic: Lost World
Wii Party U
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze
Super Mario 3D World
Wii Fit U
Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games

Gonna get everything they release, the drought has killed me xD

2014: If they get all of these out next year, it's looking great. I fully expect a new Kirby game for 3DS or Wii U by then.
Bayonetta 2
Mario Kart 8
Yarn Yoshi
X
Super Smash Bros.
SMT X Fire Emblem
 
Pikmin 3
Wonderful 101
Watchdogs
Super Mario 3D world
Maybe Rayman
Maybe Sonic

For 2013. I'm very happy with the lineup.
 
Right, I've got the following pre-ordered on Amazon:

- Luigi U
- Pikmin
- DKC
- Mario World
- W101
- Wario

am I missing anything? Couldn't care less about Watch Dogs. On the 3DS front, I've got Zelda and Mario and Luigi reserved.
 
Day 1:

Luigi U
Watch Dogs
WindWaker
Mario 3D
Wonderful 101

Eventually: Pikmin 3, Game and Wario

Perhaps: Sonic, Sonic and Mario, Assassins Creed, Scribblenauts if it is different enough from the last one.


I need to trim this list by at least half. 3 games for the rest of the year should be enough. Couldn't even include CoD or Batman.
 
Seriously I am hichting to buy a WiiU.
I didn't do it so far but only because I fear a price drop soon or a package with Mario or something.
 
The games that I plan to buy for the 2nd half of 2013, already set aside money for them:

Pikmin 3
Pokemon X
Pokemon Y
Zelda A Link Between Worlds
Super Mario 3D World

Still deciding if I should get
Pikmin 3 (enjoyed the original, didn't play the 2nd)
Wind Waker HD (Only rented the game, reached the temple where
you change the water levels right when you enter the place
. I don't know how far I was.
or Donkey Kong (I loved DKCR Wii and found it very challenging).
 
I'm getting:
Made in Wario
Luigi
Pikmin 3
Zelda hd
Rayman
Wonderful 101
Sonic
Donkey Kong
Mario 3d world

Possibly:
Wii fit u
Wii party u

For 3ds:
Shin megami
Mario & Luigi
Pokemon
Zelda
Yoshis new Island

So in short, almost everything. The drought is nearly over. Damn.
 
Speaking of which, and sorry to hijack somewhat, can WiiU still be good for single-player in mind? Or is its main value in friends over/partys etc?
 
I'll be buying...
-Super Mario 3D World
-Wind Waker HD
-Deus Ex HR (for cheap)
-Batman Arkham Origins
-Watch Dogs (if the port is good)
-Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze
-Wonderful 101
-Pikmin 3
-Sonic Lost World
-Rayman Legends

And maybe Wii Party U. My girlfriend and I play lots of Mario Party 9 and this looks like it really demonstrates the game pad's potential.

The eShop list is just too massive, especially adding in VC stuff. I'm most looking forward to UnEpic, The 90's Arcade Racer, QUBE and Clouberry Kingdom.

Only Wii Party U, Mario&Sonic at the Olympics and Wario&Game (partially) are multiplayer focused, all the other games are mostly single player games, some also with a strong multiplayer component (like Mario 3D).
 
2013 wii u is stacked for me

Sonic Lost World
Watch Dogs
Wind Waker HD
Mario 3D World
Wonderful 101
Rayman Legends
Batman: AO
Pikmin 3
Luigi U

Maybe
CoD: Dogz
DKC: Tropical Freeze
Splinter Cell

Potentially 12 games between now and the end of the year? Sweet beans
 
My only definite purchases for the remainder of the year are the following.

Pikmin 3
Sonic Lost World

The following really depends on how good the version is and what information regarding it is released as there are some titles I still don't know a lot about.

1st Party
Wonderful 101 - I need to know the game's replayability. I need to know if it has an online mode.
Wind Waker HD - Price is key here as I can still pop in my GameCube copy into my Wii.
Mario 3D World or DKCR: TF - I'm only buying one of these in the end. It really depends on what is going to provide the better single player experience. Local multiplayer is worthless to me.

3rd Party
Splinter Cell - dependent on the end result
Watch_Dogs - need to see what it looks like and what the gamepad options are
Assassin's Creed 4 or Batman Arkham Origins - dependent on quality

Going to end up being very picky for the rest of the year.
 
I haven't had a chance to read through all the posts, but who here agrees that having less on Wii U is actually more?

Just about every game listed is worth buying and it's good business for the Third Parties involved, they will get more sales due to this. Less renting and more buying. I'm all for it.

I'm in for:

Luigi U
W101
Rayman Legends
Sonic
Wind Waker HD
DKCTF
Super Mario 3D World
Deus Ex HRDC
Watch Dogs


The nice thing is that they are spaced out so you can pick up 1-2 games a month.
 
(Cross-posting from the backlog thread, I hope you don't mind)

I made this webapp to track game releases I'm interested in because 3DS and WiiU this year are blowing my mind and my wallet.

ibeB06eY4S5AvX.jpg

It sorts fuzzy dates like "October 2013" or "Q2 2014" properly, it's all ajax in a single page, and it's very simple to use.

Have at it if you want, registration is quick: http://games.aincrad.cc

I made it in two/three days, so I hope it works properly.
 
Whoever suggested at Sega that it was a clever idea to release Sonic on Wii U and 3DS on the same weekend as Pokémon has plainly smoked himself stupid. It's the only possible explanation.
 
We really need a spot for e-shop games. like a list of ones to come. I know there's a ton of them.

I could start this epic adventure, because I'm really curious about eshop indie games..but I have no graphic skills at all, so would just be a list (with link to youtube trailers?)
 
Blahblah if old... Take it with the usual grain of salt if blahblah...

Call of Duty: Ghosts Confirmed for Wii U &#8211;Release Date to Follow PS4, Xbox One Versions

So, what we&#8217;ve learned is that Call of Duty: Ghosts for Wii U is coming, though will launch at a later date than the November 5th release date of the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions. We also know that the game will run in glorious 1080p HD and 60 frames per second on the Xbox One and PS4, but no word yet on the Wii U version&#8217;s credentials.
 
Yeah, it's old. We actually got an update saying that the guy actually doesn't know, and he wasn't supposed to talk about the fact that he didn't know.

So we don't know.

I know, here it's not about Rubin. This site says they heard/know the game is coming. Just a new rumor though.
 
Oh well, apparently I bought a ZombieU pack.

Waiting on Nintendo games now. :)

- Super Luigi U
- Pikmin 3
- Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze
- Super Mario 3D Land
