I honestly don't care for Nintendo games these days, because it's all the same. The last Nintendo titles I thoroughly enjoyed were Galaxy 1 & 2 and Prime 3 on Wii... nothing on Wii U matches the quality of those titles.

Just curious, have you actually played Wii U games or are you going off appearance/ratings or something?

Yep, I've played several so far at both my cousin's and a friend's place who both own Wii U's, and I nearly picked one up both this past holiday season and when the MK8 bundle came out, but thankfully my better judgement prevailed.

So far I've played NSMBU, which is basically just an HD version of NSMBWii. Nintendo Land which I have to say is just terrible IMO and has no lasting value.  ZombiU which was OK but ultimately forgettable.  Lego City which was pretty fun and deserves a sequel, Wonderful 101 which, while really cool looking with the style and all, just isn't my cup of tea.  SM3D World... initially I was a little excited about this game, but after playing it it's just meh for me.  It's basically the NSMB gameplay in pseudo-3D (as was 3D Land on 3DS).  And then of course MK8 which I nearly bought a Wii U for because I was hyped for it, but after playing it I came away disappointed (I guess MK is finally losing its luster for me), and the gimped battle mode is just unforgiveable.

And there really isn't anything on the horizon that I'm excited about... not interested in Hyrule Warriors, and I have strong reservations about the next SSB games because Brawl was one of the biggest disappointments last gen for me, and the new one doesn't look like it brings anything different to the table other than more obscure Nintendo characters, items and themes.

You aren't interested in star fox, splatoon, or zelda. different strokes for different folks, I guess.

Splatoon looks like fun, but it's not going to make me run out and buy a Wii U...  it would be an XBLA/PSN game if it were on either the X1 or PS4.  And honestly, after the the disappointment from last few installments of both StarFox and Zelda (especially Zelda... haven't thoroughly enjoyed a game in that series since Wind Waker / Minish Cap), I have to see them and play them for myself first to believe them.  A behind-closed-doors pre-alpha tech demo and a pretty teaser trailer (didn't we see one of those way back at E3 2011?) aren't nearly enough to get me excited for either of these games.
